Speed Fan Plugin

This plugin has been based (very heavily) off the Motherboard Monitor plugin, but uses the data from SpeedFan instead.

The SpeedFan application can be downloaded from: http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php

The advantage of SpeedFan is the ability to customise the data you see and it appears to have a much greater compatibility than MBM5.

Features inlcude:
- 'Current' View, showing all current data values.
- 'List' View, showing all logged data
- 'Graph', displaying organised data in the same fashion as the MBM Reader.

To get the data to display you must configure SpeedFan with the following prefixes on the item names:
- Temperatures - 'T_'
- Fan Speeds - 'F_'
- Voltages - 'V_'

A fully explanation of the installation and setup is contained in the Plugin folder titled 'manual'.

Cheers to Jan for the idea!

Why isn't it allowing me to download this!?

[Jan]

Because he had updated it and it was stuck in moderation.

It's all good now.

I've just recently installed this in the car again...after switching motherboards.

There are a number of features that are not yet supported by SpeedFan that this board has...like the Intel QCT or somesuch.

I've disabled all of the sensors that do not show correctly in speed fan, but they still show in this plug-in.

Also, I have the temperature set to F not C, yet in this plug-in, it still shows as C.

I'm sure these are minor bugs, but I wanted to point them out!

Thanks again for a great plug-in!

Just installed the plugin and it works great! But I've only one question, is there a possibility you can change the values of the graph's? The graph is from 0 - 100 degrees, it is more usefull if it is 0 - 50. Tanks

Does this read the log files like the MBM did?
I had a folder full of log files after a couple of days! Is that normal?

<WIDTH>180</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>41</HEIGHT>
<FONTNAME>Century Gothic</FONTNAME>
<FONTSIZE>18</FONTSIZE>
<FONTSTYLE>Bold</FONTSTYLE>
<FONTCOLOR>#a9a9a9</FONTCOLOR>
<WORDWRAP>False</WORDWRAP>
<ALIGN>Left</ALIGN>
</CELL50>


Thanks

Hey Txori82,

At the moment I've been kind of slack and have hard coded it to use just a certain set of labels for the data it shows. It is possible that I could code up something in the next release which allows you to add extra rows to your skin but it wasn't something that had occurred to me before.

Consider it on the to-do list. :-)

I've got a few minor bug fixes to release as well so hopefully I'll stop being lazy and get it out.

Where can I find this plugin for CF1.x? I'm trying to install this version, but it's gives me an error in graphs (.net framework error, so I think that is an error because it's for CF2)

Thanks
