Fan Speed on Matix Orbital Display

My Matix Orbital has my case fans connected to it. How do I display the fan speed on the display? I see under actions I can control the speed... but can't figure out how to output the speed.

MO displays can change fan speeds but do not fetch rpm data from them.
So there is no way to show speeds from them in smartie.

Anyway, check the display's manual and see if it reports fan speed, some thing may have changed, then post back.

Darn.... i was hoping to switch from LCDC to LCD Smartie.... this is a show stopper.

The LK202-24-USB, LK204-24-USB and all the MX series do fetch the RPM data from fans as long as the fan is a 3 wire RPM capable one.
