20f3b4b146SAleksa Savic-----------
21f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
22*8ec8d6c5SAleksa SavicThis driver enables hardware monitoring support for NZXT Kraken X53/X63/X73,
23*8ec8d6c5SAleksa SavicZ53/Z63/Z73 and Kraken 2023 (standard and Elite) all-in-one CPU liquid coolers.
24*8ec8d6c5SAleksa SavicAll models expose liquid temperature and pump speed (in RPM), as well as PWM
25*8ec8d6c5SAleksa Saviccontrol (either as a fixed value or through a temp-PWM curve). The Z-series and
26*8ec8d6c5SAleksa SavicKraken 2023 models additionally expose the speed and duty of an optionally connected
27*8ec8d6c5SAleksa Savicfan, with the same PWM control capabilities.
28f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
29f3b4b146SAleksa SavicPump and fan duty control mode can be set through pwm[1-2]_enable, where 1 is
30f3b4b146SAleksa Savicfor the manual control mode and 2 is for the liquid temp to PWM curve mode.
31f3b4b146SAleksa SavicWriting a 0 disables control of the channel through the driver after setting its
32f3b4b146SAleksa Savicduty to 100%.
33f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
34f3b4b146SAleksa SavicThe temperature of the curves relates to the fixed [20-59] range, correlating to
35f3b4b146SAleksa Savicthe detected liquid temperature. Only PWM values (ranging from 0-255) can be set.
36f3b4b146SAleksa SavicIf in curve mode, setting point values should be done in moderation - the devices
37f3b4b146SAleksa Savicrequire complete curves to be sent for each change; they can lock up or discard
38f3b4b146SAleksa Savicthe changes if they are too numerous at once. Suggestion is to set them while
39f3b4b146SAleksa Savicin an another mode, and then apply them by switching to curve.
40f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
41f3b4b146SAleksa SavicThe devices can report if they are faulty. The driver supports that situation
42f3b4b146SAleksa Savicand will issue a warning. This can also happen when the USB cable is connected,
43f3b4b146SAleksa Savicbut SATA power is not.
44f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
45*8ec8d6c5SAleksa SavicThe addressable RGB LEDs and LCD screen (only on Z-series and Kraken 2023 models)
46*8ec8d6c5SAleksa Savicare not supported in this driver, but can be controlled through existing userspace
47*8ec8d6c5SAleksa Savictools, such as `liquidctl`_.

51f3b4b146SAleksa SavicUsage Notes
52f3b4b146SAleksa Savic-----------
53f3b4b146SAleksa Savic
54f3b4b146SAleksa SavicAs these are USB HIDs, the driver can be loaded automatically by the kernel and
55f3b4b146SAleksa Savicsupports hot swapping.
