A status and control utility that iteracts with CorsairLink products

OpenCorsairLink is a command-line tool to monitor and control the fan speed, LED colour and pump volumes of specific Corsair power supplies and cooling solutions.

To allow this snap access to your device(s), issue the following connection commands:

 $ sudo snap connect opencorsairlink:raw-usb
 $ sudo snap connect opencorsairlink:hardware-observe

Examples:

To set your own custom fan curve for a specific set of temperatures, use the following command:

 $ sudo opencorsairlink --device 1 --fan channel=1,mode=6,temps=0:35:45:50:55:60,speeds=0:0:55:60:75:100

To set LED colors and mode:

 $ sudo opencorsairlink --device 0 --led channel=0,mode=0,colors=00FF00

To set pump cooling mode:

 $ sudo opencorsairlink --device 0 --pump mode=5

OpenCorsairLink is unofficial and is not endorsed or affiliated with Corsair.

General options:

--help: prints this message
--version: displays version
--debug: displays enhanced Debug Messages
--dump: implies --debug, dumps the raw data received from the device.
--machine: prints status in a machine readable format
--device <Device Number> : specify selected device
--led: control LED modes alongside standard, error and warning colors

----fan: set fan mode and create speed profiles ---pump: set pump cooling mode

LED (--led) options: (after specifying a device):

channel=N,mode=N,colors=HHHHHH:HHHHHH:HHHHHH,temps=TEMP:TEMP:TEMP

channel= <led number> : selects LED channel to configure. Accepted values are 1 or 2.
mode=:
- 0: static
- 1: blink (Only Commander Pro and Asetek Pro)
- 2: color Pulse (Only Commander Pro and Asetek Pro)
- 3: color Shift (Only Commander Pro and Asetek Pro)
- 4: rainbow (Only Commander Pro and Asetek Pro)
- 5: temperature (Only Commander Pro, Asetek, and Asetek Pro)
Colors: <HTML Color Code>, defines the LED color
Warn: <HTML Color Code>, defined the warning LED color
Temps: <Temperature in Celsius>, defines the warning temperature LED color

Fan (--fan) options: (after specifying a device):

channel=N,mode=N,pwm=PWM,rpm=RPM,temps=TEMP:TEMP:TEMP,speeds=SPEED:SPEED:SPEED

channel= <fan number>: selects a fan to setup. Accepted values are 1, 2, 3 or 4.

-mode=:

0: fixed PWM (requires the PWM to be specified)
1: fixed RPM (requires the RPM to be specified)
2: default
3: quiet
4: balanced
5: performance
6: custom Curve
PWM <PWM Percent>: the desired PWM for the selected fan. NOTE: only with fixed PWM
RPM <fan RPM>: the desired RPM for the selected fan. NOTE: with fixed RPM
For Custom Curves:
- Temps <C>: define Celcius temperatures for fan
- Speeds <Percentage>: define RPM percentages for fan

Pump (--pump) options: (after specifying a device): -mode=:

0: quiet
1: balanced
2: performance

Without options, OpenCorsairLink will show the status of any detected Corsair Link device.

Enable snaps on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and install OpenCorsairLink

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.

Enable snapd

Snap is available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.

The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below.

The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 9 with the following command:

sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade

The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 8 with the following command:

sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade

The EPEL repository can be added to RHEL 7 with the following command:

sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

Adding the optional and extras repositories is also recommended:

sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update

Snap can now be installed as follows:

sudo yum install snapd

Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket

To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:

sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap

Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

Install OpenCorsairLink
