Bitfenix Recon - Pump Control

Hi,

    I've been doing a project for around 5 or 6 weeks now (see sig) which is using 2x Ek DDC PWM pump/res combos

 

 

http://www.ekwb.com/shop/reservoirs-and-acc/res-pump-combo/ek-ddc/ek-xres-140-ddc-3-2-pwm-incl-pump.html

 

 

One loop is for the cpu/motherboard chipset and the other is for the GPU.

 

I bought the bitfenix recon as it was pretty much the only white fan controller available. My plan was to use channel 1 (via a powered pwm hub) to power the 5 fans for cpu loop, channel 2 (again via powered pwm hub) to control the 3 fans of the gpu loop, leaving 4 to control the CPU loop pump and 5 (still with me?) to control the GPU loop.

 

However it's just rubbish lol. I have no control over the pwm hubs and no control over the PWM pumps, they just run at full speed.

 

I was under the impression I would be able to control pump speed using this controller, does anyone have any insight or suggestions which may help?

 

thanks
