Controling the FAN

[Cjcr]

@steven:

Regarding freescale is the max. temerature 105C. (for MCIMX6Q5EYM10AC)

What do you think about changing the current 70 C peak to 80 or even 85 C? or much better, add an option to setting up this value manually?
The limit is 105C, so we're still far from the burning value

I say this because the fan noise is really annoying and could reduce a bit more the need of turning it on.

I changed the ranges to hi: 75 and low: 65 in the script. this is fine for me.
you can change it like you wish with...
nano /usr/bin/fanmonitor

Oh thanks. I thought that it was a binary file pre-compiled.

Hi Cjcr

Your advice is very well. next version we will change to a bigger value.

Thanks

Kind Regards
