Is FanControl compatible with any fan?įanControl is able to control the fan speed of most fan makes and models, but if needed, FanControl also features a plugin system that lets you inject any type of sensor from a third party developer or external sources. Different curves bound to different temperature sensors, mixed together, your case fans never asked for better. Specified in the corresponding Arch Linux package.FanControl lets you combine any type of fan curves together and apply a function like maximum or average to create a whole new control logic.

The term 'PWM' is used because most fan control systems See fancontrol(8) for additional information. Opportunity to establish mappings between fans and temperature inputs,ĭefine the temperature range over which the speed of the fan should beĪdjusted dynamically, the minimum speed at which the fan should spin, etc. System based on temperature measurements. Lastly, pwmconfig will enter in fancontrolĬonfiguration mode (unless you decide to skip that part.) In this mode, youĪre invited to enter several parameters which will determine how theįancontrol daemon regulates the speed of one or more fans in your Pwmconfig can generate a detailed correlation, to show how a givenįan is responding to various PWM duty cycles. When a connection is established between a PWM control and a fan, Installed, even if your sensor chip supports PWM. Note that many motherboards do not have PWM circuitry (PWM) controls, and tests each one to see if it controls a fan on your Pwmconfig searches your sensors for pulse width modulation There is no significant system load, to minimize the risk of It is strongly recommended to run pwmconfig at a time when Motherboards and fans, it shouldn't be blindly trusted. Spinning when they are supposed to, but due to the diversity of available pwmconfig does its best to check that the fans are Verify that all fans are running at normal speed after this program This may cause your processor temperature Pwmconfig will attempt to stop your fans, one at a time,įor approximately 5 seconds each. Pwmconfig - tests the PWM outputs of sensors and configures
