July 30Jul 30 Corsair's iCUE software is Windows-only, so if you've got a Corsair digital PSU in your server you get no monitoringand no fan control at all. I wanted both, so I built this.What it does- Live per-rail voltage, current and power for +12V, +5V and +3.3V- Total power out, estimated power in, efficiency and load- VRM and case temperatures, fan RPM- Every reading has a running min/max and a live sparkline- Fan control: hand it to the PSU firmware, hold a fixed duty, or drag out a custom curve. Presets for Quiet,Balanced, Performance and Max- +12V OCP single/multi rail toggle — single rail means fewer nuisance trips when several drives spin up together- Text size control, since not everyone's running the same size monitorSupported PSUs (model is detected automatically)HX750i, HX850i, HX1000i, HX1000i (2022), HX1200i, HX1200i ATX 3.1, HX1500i, RM650i, RM750i, RM850i, RM1000iAn unrecognised Corsair digital PSU still gets full sensor readings and fan control — only efficiency and load% arehidden, since those need model-specific data. It shows n/a rather than making a number up.How it worksSensors come from the in-kernel corsair-psu hwmon driver, so polling costs no USB traffic and can't collide withanything else. The only writes to the PSU are fan duty and OCP mode, and only when you click something.One thing worth knowing: these PSUs can't store a fan curve in firmware — they only accept a fixed duty. So customcurves are driven from Unraid by a small service that re-applies duty from PSU temperature every 10s. That's exactlywhat iCUE does on Windows. Minimum duty is 30%.It's self-contained — bundles the Python modules it needs, so there's no pip step and no internet needed at install orboot. Uninstall removes everything and hands the fan back to the PSU firmware.InstallIt's in Community Applications — search for "Corsair PSU Center" in the Apps tab.Or manually, Plugins → Install Plugin →https://raw.githubusercontent.com/racoutlaw/corsair-psu-center/main/corsairpsucenter.plgThen open the CorsairPSUCenter tab.Fair warning on testingI've only got an HX1000i, so that's the only model tested on real hardware, on Unraid 7.2.7. The other eleven sharethe same detection path and should work, but "should" is doing some heavy lifting there. If you've got a differentHXi or RMi, I'd really like to hear whether it detects properly — especially whether the model name, wattage andefficiency look right.Source and issues: https://github.com/racoutlaw/corsair-psu-centerBuilt on liquidctl (https://github.com/liquidctl/liquidctl), which does the hard part of talking to these PSUs.GPL-2.0.

August 11Aug 11 First off thanks for the great work! Something I know quite a few of us have wanted. Would love to use it but keep getting issues installing. Both App store and Manually. When i do a manual install, copy and paste of the link (I think there were two different links i found for it to github) both give this error. plugin: installing: corsairpsucenter.plg Executing hook script: CA_preHook Clearing Community Applications plugin cache Executing hook script: pre_plugin_checks plugin: downloading: corsairpsucenter.plg ... done Executing hook script: CA_preHook Clearing Community Applications plugin cache Executing hook script: pre_plugin_checks plugin: run failed: '/bin/bash' returned 1 Executing hook script: CA_postHook Clearing Community Applications plugin cache Executing hook script: post_plugin_checks When installing it form the app store I get this Downloading plugin plugin: installing: corsairpsucenter.plg Executing hook script: CA_preHook Clearing Community Applications plugin cache Executing hook script: pre_plugin_checks plugin: run failed: '/bin/bash' returned 1 Executing hook script: CA_postHook Clearing Community Applications plugin cache Executing hook script: post_plugin_checks Plugin installedNeither one install. No tab, doesn't show as installed. Running the latest 7.3.2 using internal boot off of a pool of 256GB NVMs. Thanks
