Konijntjes Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Dear Unraid users, I am useing the Gigabyte C246-WU4 ( Bios F6 latest). And it is inside a supermicro cs846. I have replaced the fan wall with 3x 120mm fans and connected those fans to fan port system fan 2/3/4. Then i installed the plugins: Perl - Nerd tools. Dynamix System Temperature Dynamix Auto Fan Control And then i configured them as per the manual. The plugin detects the fan @ /sys/devices/platform/it87.2656/hwmon/hwmon4/fan1_input for pwm1 I can see in the log that the plugin is trying to change the fan speed but it isnt working. May 24 07:19:09 unRAID autofan: Highest disk temp is 36C, adjusting fan speed from: 92 (36% @ 1142rpm) to: 73 (28% @ 1134rpm) May 24 07:19:09 unRAID autofan: Highest disk temp is 36C, adjusting fan speed from: 92 (36% @ 1178rpm) to: 55 (21% @ 1182rpm) May 24 07:19:09 unRAID autofan: Highest disk temp is 36C, adjusting fan speed from: 92 (36% @ 1186rpm) to: 87 (34% @ 1165rpm) In the bios i have change all the fans to PWM and used a multiple of fan speed options like normal/silent/manual/full speed. The full speed one you can hear the plugin in change the fans but within 1 second its back to full speed. Is there someone with the same problem as 1 have ? unraid-diagnostics-20220524-0722.zip Edited May 24, 2022 by Konijntjes Quote Link to comment
GawedaIO Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I was having the same issue when I saw this post the other day. I ended up uninstalling the Dynamix Fan Speed Control plugin and setting all the fan speed control settings to 'Normal' mode in the bios. According to the manual( page 30-32 ) this setting should automatically adjust the fan speed based on measured temps from the board. Seems to be working for me( I think? ) as I have seen the fan speed adjust to several values between ~500 to 1200. I'm gonna keep watching it to make sure it behaves as expected but thought I'd let you know. Edited May 26, 2022 by GawedaIO specify specific plugin Quote Link to comment

If i set them at full speed and use echo commands to the pwm controller something overrides it back to full speed. Quote Link to comment
shaihulud Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Hey @Konijntjes, ever find a solution to this issue? I've got the same Gigabyte motherboard, and I'm unable to get the PWM controller to show up in Dynamix Fan Auto Control Quote Link to comment
