dm800 clone internal fan

[jackel808]

has anyone managed to find a plugin that actually works and turns the fan off when in standby. haven't found a working one yet

cheers

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

What about fan control 2? Or can't you control it in the image?

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

tried that but it doesn't work & no u every image i have tried i haven't been able to turn off fan in standby

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

what i read here it should could be done
_http://www.i-have-a-dreambox.com/wbb2/thread.php?threadid=126274
translated with ******
only works with new drivers of the year 2010 from Gemini 4.6 or other OE1.5/1.6 Images
for DM500HD, DM8000HD, DM800SE

What it does at the moment:
- Control of a fan 3pin or 4pin (PWM) fan
- Setting: (via plugin configuration list)
Type fan 3pin / 4pin / off control of /
Turn off fans in standby + except for 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 feature: fan at at maximum temperature, fan failure detection and emergency
- Base temperature is the average of the two highest temperatures!
- Check min / max speeds of the fan
- Displays the current values as a number and bar + temperature sensors monitor all + HDD
- Web info page _http://your dreambox ip/fancontrol(activity levels, on-line diagram)
- Data logging (FC2data.csv) and event logging (FC2events.txt) in file
- Preparation of multi-language (ipkg pot file in other languages welcome)

small FAQ
- Rpm / 2 is set by default and should be left alone. This shows the true speed of the fan, as is provided by the driver of the double value
- Quiet Temperature: up to this temperature is not regulated and the minimum speed is set
- End temperature: is the maximum temperature which may occur is reached that is set the maximum speed
(There is no recommendation for the temp range, try some of what can be achieved for results, anything between 40-50 ° C)
- Voltage / PWM
If this value changes are immediately set for the fan (for reading the initial speed). However, it is now the basis of these values is equal to more regulated. With these values, the fan starts Boxstart.
4Pin: put on full power (DM500HD/DM800se to 5-10) and reached a value of at least the maximum required speed, set the initial speed with PWM (PWM is controlled, if not sufficient, the voltage)
3pin: (will only regulated voltage) with voltage adjusted initial speed
- 3pin or 4pin fan type
If it is not known what type of fan has built one that can easily be found. To easily change the start PWM controller. Changes while 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, ie on the wrong
- The box must have an adjustable fan connector hardware and temperature sensor (s) (tested on DM500HD, DM800SE, DM8000HD)
- Check
3pin: Only voltage change is used for the fan check.
4Pin: PWM fan can be checked via the PWM setting (can be regulated as over the PWM area ONLY!). In addition, testing to what extent the change in voltage can be used to control (extended range).
"!" is displayed when the fan can not reach the set values for min / max speeds. This does not affect the control, but it should be considered to adjust the settings. You can also adjust the voltage for PWM fans down to lower minimum AND maximum speed achieved. But lowers the voltage is not too far off, or else the fan will suddenly not at all more, because the internal electronics requires a certain amount of tension to work. This is where a little experimentation.
- Online chart
The data logging must be enabled to do so. When logging directory, a USB stick or CF card can be used. Even a temporarily logging into the flash or / tmp is possible. Here, however, should be recorded because of limited space only a little. A logging on / media / hdd, the drive can be run continuously, so not recommended.
Event logging is looking for problems to make sense (not required for chart), should therefore not normally be activated.
Auto deletion affects only the data logging.
- HDD Temperature
By default, an "automatic" mode is used to test the support of the HDD temperature readout in standby. This can cause a spin down / start-up at Enigma, if the HDD can not do this. Who cares, should set the correct mode in FC2 setup, then is usually "no" to the correct mode.
If the hard drive from the sleep mode wake up (every 10min), please put "reading of HDD temperature" No or Never!
- Installation
IPC Package
with FTP (DCC) to / tmp copy
wechslen with file manager in the Verzeichins / tmp and install the package
or
Telnet:
cd / tmp
opkg install *. ipk
- Remove
opkg remove enigma2-plugin-extensions-fancontrol2

- Note: Restart after installation / update / remove Enigma

I'll try to collect the HDDs that allow a temperature reading in sleep without spinup:
not possible
Seagate ST3500312CS, ST31000322CS, ST31500341AS
Samsung SP2004C, HD203WI, SP2504C, HD321KJ, HD503HI, HM500JI
possible
WD WD10EAVS, WD10EADS, WD15EADS, WD20EADS, WD Scorpio Blue
WD3200BEVT
Samsung HD510LJ

Version 2.6 (02/10/2011)
Revision RollUp
- Follow the WebIF change
- RPM <> RPM / 2 back set
- Fix: double WebIF Registering
- Fix: 3 pin voltage rises above 255 is possible
r1: Fx: Crash due to changes in Disk Management

- Follow the WebIF-change
- RPM <> RPM / 2 back again
- Fix: double WebIF Registering
- Fix: 3-pin voltage rises above 255 is possible
r1: crash off because changes in Disk Management

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

good find that like. so is this guide for a fancontrol plugin from tspanel with right drivers?

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

i can't tell you i don't have a fan and don't have a clone
what about give it a go and test it yourself

Re: dm800 clone internal fan

ive checked mine, it switches off in standby, i have db800hd pro, Dream Elite 3, bootloader 84b. i havnt added any other plugins to control fan or anything. it might work for you.
