Support for Lian-Li TL controller?

[MrDo-Arcade]

Just started looking in to Fan Control today, found that it has this plugin, which is cool... but then it hasn't been updated since June 2023, and in the original Reddit posts by the author announcing the plugin, the username is [deleted]... did something happen?

If still active... wondering if it's possible to add support for the new TL Controller that came out in December 2023?

Note that compared to previous LL controllers, this one shows up as two different devices in Device Manager: looks like one is for the typical functions of the controller, and the second is specific to the LCD function on the TL LCD fans. Also, while normal controllers only utilize one half of an internal USB header, this one utilizes the entire USB header (hence the two different devices).

Info from Device Manager 1:

• Name: TL_Series_ControllerV0.1
• VID: 0416
• PID: 7372
• Complete string from Parent Device: USB\VID_0416&PID_7372\Nuvoton
• Complete string from Hardware IDs 1: USB\VID_0416&PID_7372&REV_0101&MI_00
• Complete string from Hardware IDs 2: USB\VID_0416&PID_7372&MI_00

Info from Device Manager 2:

• Name: TL_LCDV0.1
• VID: 04FC
• PID: 7393
• Complete string from Parent Device: USB\VID_04FC&PID_7393\TL_LCDV0.1
• Complete string from Hardware IDs 1: USB\VID_04FC&PID_7393&REV_0100&MI_01
• Complete string from Hardware IDs 2: USB\VID_04FC&PID_7393&MI_01

If anything else is needed, please let me know.

+1 keen to know if this project is still alive.

I installed the Unifan TL Reverse with the Controller and would Love to use this Plugin. Is there anyone working in it?

Did anyone get the TL controller working?

Yes @Granville646 Enable Motherboard Passtrough in the LianLi li Software. Worked for me.

I only see 1 sensor for all fans connected to the controller. Do you see all 4?

Did you Plug them in as one Block? Or did you Plug them in separately?

Its showing me one Fan too. But i built 3 Fans as one Block.

Its showing me one Fan too. But i built 3 Fans as one Block.

I have them in groups as i have a mix of TL, TL LCD and TL 140. They all operate at different RPM.

I dont think this is exactly the solution. this will allow the fans to be controlled by the motherboard bios which kinda defeats the purpose? I think what myself and @Granville646 are looking for is a way for the fans to be directly software controlled, in my case it would be great to do without the LianLi software and control fan speeds via custom curves and custom temp sensors.

Also a side quest if anyone has a solution, getting support for these devices in linux...
