Corsair LL120 RGB not working with 6 fans

[knight_40k]

I recently purchased another pack of 3 LL120 fans (sale had 3 pack cheaper than 3 individual) but I cannot get the RGB to light on a single controller. Am I missing something?

 

Everything is plugged in correctly, sata power is connected on both the node and RGB hub. If I disconnect my original 3 RGB and plug the new ones, the RGB works in slots 1-3 but not in 4-6. Using the second RGB hub I swapped the to see if one was faulty but neither will do RGB to 6 fans. If I use both hubs in slots 1-3 I am able to get all 6 fans to work properly, but that is just not right being 6 fans should work on a single hub.

UPDATE: **[SOLVED]**

 

I found the problem.

Within the iCUE software, I had to change the lighting channel to tell it there was no device connected, ie: remove the previous device of "LL RGB Series Fans". Then I re-added the device and was able to remove the second hub, plug all fans to a single hub, and now it works like it should!

 

Stupid software design that the fans are not plug and play, making it look like a hardware problem. I hope this helps someone else with the same fans having the same or similar issue.
