Fixes

  • coolercast probe keeps the display lit. The AK display goes blank a few seconds after the last report, so values could disappear while you were still looking at them, and probe raw lost its payload right after sending it. Both now refresh the display every second until you press Enter.

Findings

A full scan of the undocumented digit values (10–255) on an AK400 DIGITAL SE is now in the protocol notes: a few shapes (C, L, h, 3 and some dashes), but no G, P or U, whatever the °C/°F/% symbol. Words such as CPU or GPU cannot be written on AK displays.

If your cooler shows something different, coolercast probe digit (with the service stopped) and an issue are very welcome.

Install

Windows 10/11: run coolercast-windows-x64.msi. Updating from an earlier MSI keeps your settings. The file is not code-signed yet: if SmartScreen warns, choose More info → Run anyway.

Linux: download coolercast-linux-x86_64.tar.gz, extract it and run sudo coolercast/install.sh.

See the README for details. SHA256SUMS.txt lists the checksums of every file.
