How to deactive/activate the cooling fan?

#1 · 23/01/2024, 09:39

Within the SPECTRAN V6 block you can activate or deactivate the internal fan by setting the checkbox under Board Config -> Temperature Fan Control:

SPECTRAN V6 Fan Control

Please notice that the change will be active after rebooting the RTSA-Suite PRO software.

At a temperature controlled regular work space deactivating the fan is no problem but please notice that a higher temperature will reduce the sensitivity (NF might rise by 1-2dB).

You can monitor the Frontend & FPGA temperature within the SPECTRAN V6 Temperature monitoring graph:
