And then set the pwm1 value to + control the fan. + + Each temperature channel can control all the 8 PWM outputs (by setting the + corresponding bit in tempX_fan_map), you can set the temperature channel + mode using temp[1-6]_pwm_enable, 2 is Thermal Cruise mode and 3 + is the SmartFanII mode. Temperature channels will try to speed up or + slow down all controlled fans, this means one fan can receive different + PWM value requests from different temperature channels, but the chip + will always pick the safest (max) PWM value for each fan. + + In Thermal Cruise mode, the chip attempts to keep the temperature at a + predefined value, within a tolerance margin. So if tempX_input > + thermal_cruiseX + toleranceX, the chip will increase the PWM value, + if tempX_input < thermal_cruiseX - toleranceX, the chip will decrease + the PWM value. If the temperature is within the tolerance range, the PWM + value is left unchanged. + + SmartFanII works differently, you have to define up to 7 PWM, temperature + trip points, defining a PWM/temperature curve which the chip will follow. + While not fundamentally different from the Thermal Cruise mode, the + implementation is quite different, giving you a finer-grained control. + +* Chassis + If the case open alarm triggers, it will stay in this state unless cleared + by any write to the sysfs file "chassis". + +* VID and VRM + The VRM version is detected automatically, don't modify the it unless you + *do* know the cpu VRM version and it's not properly detected. + + +Notes +----- + + Only Fan1-5 and PWM1-3 are guaranteed to always exist, other fan inputs and + PWM outputs may or may not exist depending on the chip pin configuration. |
