Koolance TMS-100K - Manual

Hardware Installation
The TMS interface card can be installed into a PCI or PCI-Express slot (with included L-bracket), 3.5” bay (with included tray),
or optionally adapted to a 5.25” bay. It utilizes one external or internal USB port, and is powered by a direct 12V power supply
connection.
First, connect all necessary wires to the TMS card EXCEPT THE USB CABLE. The internal or external USB cable will be
connected after software installation. If necessary, wire extensions for fans and the pump are included with the TMS-100K.
Decide whether the TMS card will use the L-bracket (motherboard slot installation) or 3.5” tray (drive bay installation) and mount
the appropriate piece with the included screws. The cables will be more diffi cult to attach if not done before screwing the TMS
card into the 3.5” tray.
