Default HotKeys

2023-04-03T14:56:02.050000Z

Hi there,
The tool is great, thanks! ;)

But I spent about 1 hour investigating why Ctrl+Shift+1/Ctrl+Shift+2 stopped working in my IntelliJ Idea as the first two Bookmarks shortcuts (and then in Visual Studio and Windows itself).

Please, set as default "Hotkeys=0" in TPFanControl.ini
or
change the hooking code to pass the intercepted keyboard input further to OS.

Best Regards,
Vlad

#7 x64 BSOD

2020-03-19T12:28:35.920000Z

I have the same problem on ltsc 1809 w10 with a L390 with tpfancontrol 0.62L. I use the verifier method because the computer freezes but I do not think it ocmes from tpfancontrol since there is no bug from the software itself.

Same problem here on Win8 x64.

TPfc suddenly stops working - xc3

2012-06-24T09:08:24Z

I have tpfc installed on a t420, Windows 7 (modified .ini file) and it works nicely for days or weeks. One day
when booting up the sensor in the taskbar shows "0" and "xc3" - all of the sensors show "n/a". I tried stopping/
starting the program (also with the original .ini file), which does not help. Reinstalling the program currently
does not work either - no sensor information is read out (reinstalling the nth time sometimes helps).

ps: I did not install any new software in the period when tpfc stopped working

The TVicport64.sys provided by tpfancontrol causes BSOD at leat on Win7 x64.
Procedure to reproduce:
winkey+r > verifier > enter > choose driver from list (TVicport64) > reboot > bsod

Hysteresis not working in tp4xfancontrol V0.211

2009-03-16T17:54:56Z

In release V.0.21 of tp4xfancontrol the hysteresis is not working as described in the fancontrol.ini:

...
// (for the fan to come back, temperature must fall
// down to previous level).
...

-----------------------------
Problem description:
-----------------------------

Settings from the fancontrol.ini:

Level=48 0
Level=52 1
Level=54 2
...

When the temperature is around 52°, the fan speed is oscillating between 0x00 and 0x01:

[16.03.2009 18:17:05] Fan: 0x00 / Highest: 52°C (45 44 34 47 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 52 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:05] Smart: Set fan control to 0x01, Result: OK
[16.03.2009 18:17:09] Fan: 0x01 / Highest: 51°C (45 45 34 46 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 51 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:09] Smart: Set fan control to 0x00, Result: OK
[16.03.2009 18:17:10] Fan: 0x00 / Highest: 52°C (45 45 34 46 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 52 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:10] Smart: Set fan control to 0x01, Result: OK
[16.03.2009 18:17:15] Fan: 0x01 / Highest: 51°C (45 44 34 46 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 51 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:15] Smart: Set fan control to 0x00, Result: OK
[16.03.2009 18:17:20] Fan: 0x00 / Highest: 52°C (45 45 34 47 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 52 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:20] Smart: Set fan control to 0x01, Result: OK
[16.03.2009 18:17:29] Fan: 0x01 / Highest: 52°C (45 45 34 46 34 n/a 29 n/a 42 52 44 n/a)
[16.03.2009 18:17:29] Mode switch: Set fan control to 0x80, Result: OK

-----------------------------
Expected behaviour:
-----------------------------

- As soon as the temperature reaches the value defined by a certain level in the .ini file: Set the corresponding fan speed.
- Only when the temperature falls below the PREVIOUS level: set the corresponding fan speed.

Example corresponding to the following setting from the fancontrol.ini:

Level=48 0
Level=52 1
Level=54 2
...

1.) fan off, temperature rising and reaching 52° -> Set fan to 0x01
2.) temperature starts to fall below 52° -> keep fan speed of 0x01
3.) temperature falls and reaches 48° -> set fan to 0x00

cycle

2009-01-28T16:24:02Z

[2009-01-28 17:13:50] Fan: 0x01 / Highest: 47°C (42 46 35 47 34 n/a 29 n/a 0 0 0 0)
[2009-01-28 17:13:50] Smart: Set fan control to 0x00, Result: OK
[2009-01-28 17:15:20] Fan: 0x00 / Highest: 48°C (43 46 36 48 34 n/a 29 n/a 0 0 0 0)
[2009-01-28 17:15:20] Smart: Set fan control to 0x01, Result: OK
[2009-01-28 17:15:21] Fan: 0x01 / Highest: 47°C (43 46 36 47 34 n/a 29 n/a 0 0 0 0)
[2009-01-28 17:15:21] Smart: Set fan control to 0x00, Result: OK
[2009-01-28 17:15:50] Fan: 0x00 / Highest: 48°C (43 46 36 48 34 n/a 29 n/a 0 0 0 0)
[2009-01-28 17:15:50] Smart: Set fan control to 0x01, Result: OK

I set up cycle to 30 seconds but as you can see in logs sometimes it switches fan after one second.

A bug or a feature? :)

Hysteresis

2009-01-28T15:32:30Z

On my T41 temp reading are OK but fan turns on and off when temp oscilates betwen 47C an 48C. I have defined in INI file levels like that

level 46 0
level 48 1

It's a but or do I miss something? :)

Working after sleep

Hello.
After sleep on my Z60T fan speed sets to maximum.
"Fan control" take control only after swithing to bios mode and back to Smart mode.
