HD 120 don't light up?

I connect all my hd 120 fans to the lighting controller and then the controller to a lighting node pro but when I powered the pc on to check if it was all plugged in, the fans spun but didn't light up. Will they only light up once I install Corsair link or is something plugged in wrong? (I don't have a monitor on hand so I will need to wait to install Corsair link)

The fans require software via Corsair Link to configure the lighting control, I'm not sure if there is a set default if you don't configure it.

Yep, I got that sorted and the fans look amazing!
