FanControl2

    • Official Post

    works only with new drivers of 2010 from Gemini 4.6 or other OE1.5/1.6 Images
    for DM500HD, DM8000HD, DM800se


    What it does at the moment:
    - Control a 3pin or 4pin fan (PWM) fans
    - Setting: (configuration via plugin list)
    Fan type 3pin / 4pin / off control of /
    Fan off in standby + except during recording or HDD
    minimum and maximum speed
    Control-rest and the end-temperature
    Initial voltage and PWM value
    - Slow control with almost no CPU load
    - Safety Function: Fan on at maximum temperature, fan failure detection and emergency
    - Base temperature is the average of the two highest temperatures!
    - Check min / max speed of the fan
    - Display of current values as a number and bar + + HDD temperature monitor all sensors
    - Web info page http://ip.der.dream.box/fancontrol (activity, values, online chart)
    - Data-logging (FC2data.csv) and event logging (FC2events.txt) in file
    - Prepare multi-language (welcome to the pot file ipkg other languages)


    Small FAQ
    - Resting temperature: up to this temperature is not regulated and the minimum speed is set
    - End temperature: the maximum temperature that may occur is reached this will set the maximum speed
    (There is no recommendation for the temp area, try some of what can be achieved for the results, anything between 40-50 ° C)
    - Voltage / PWM
    If this value changes are immediately set for the fan (for the reading of the initial speed). However, it is now the basis of these values equal to more regulated. With these values, the fan starts Boxstart.
    4pin: set to full power (DM500HD/DM800se to 5-10) or reached at a value of at least the maximum desired speed, set the initial speed with PWM (PWM is controlled, if not sufficient, the voltage)
    3pin: (to be regulated voltage only) set top speed with power
    - Fan type 3pin or 4pin
    If you can not just looking, what type of fan has built one that can easily be found out. This change just the start PWM controller. Changes thereby the speed, it is a 4pin fan.
    - Settings
    The configured settings are stored in the Enigma settings and are therefore included in the Backup / Restore
    - The speed is the real speed, other tools show twice, that of false
    - The box must have an adjustable fan hardware port and temperature sensor (s) (tested on DM500HD and DM8000HD)
    - Online Chart
    The data logging must be enabled to do so. When logging directory, a USB stick or CF card can be used. A time as logging into the flash or / tmp is possible. It should also be recorded because of the limited space only a little. A logging on / media / hdd does the hard drive run constantly, so not recommended.
    Event logging is looking for problems to appropriate (not necessary for chart)
    - HDD Temperature
    If the hard drive from the sleep mode wake up (every 10min), please ask "the reading of HDD temperature" to No, or Never!
    - Installation
    IPK Package
    with FTP (DCC) to / tmp copy
    changer with a file manager in the Verzeichins / tmp and install package
    or
    Telnet:
    cd / tmp
    ipkg install *. ipk
    - Remove
    ipkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-fancontrol2


    - Note: Restart after installation / update / remove Enigma


    (12.06.) : ignore high rpm values; do not crash at os.calls
