Auggie Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I've had this little board for about 4 years and just recently moved it into a new Norco RPC-4224 and want to control the massive 120mm fans and 80mm exhaust fans (new PWM Noctua's) like I do with my first RPC-4224 setup. In its previous case I let the mobo handle fan control via BIOS but now I want it controlled with the same unRAID script (http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=5548.105) that I do with my media server, which is based on drive temperatures. It has certainly been done before with this board (http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=11310.0;nowap) as it's listed as having two PWM fan headers, but when I run pwmconfig it finds no PWM modules: /usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed. When I relocated the board into the new case, I updated it's original factory installed BIOS to the latest R1.2b. This BIOS allows four different automated fan settings (full power, performance, balanced, power saving), but it seems it doesn't allow external control of the fans under any of these selections. Can any X7SPA board users with the latest BIOS verify they can't control PWM fans via script? Quote Link to comment
