RE: Tool to Control Fan - fanctl - Drago - 11-20-2018

I can't get this to install for the life of me.

Installed dependencies, created symlink, then:
Code:
cat <</usr/bin/lua5.3 >> /etc/luarocks/config.lua > variables = { >     UNISTD_INCDIR   = "/usr/include", >     STAT_INCDIR     = "/usr/include/$( gcc -dumpmachine )", >     TYPES_INCDIR    = "/usr/include/$( gcc -dumpmachine )", >     LUALIB_INCDIR   = "/usr/include/lua5.3", >     LAUXLIB_INCDIR  = "/usr/include/lua5.3", >     LUA_INCDIR      = "/usr/include/lua5.3", >     LUA53_LIBDIR    = "/usr/lib/$( gcc -dumpmachine )" > } > /usr/bin/lua5.3


I then ran:
Code:
luarocks build https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuxd3v/ats/master/ats-0.1-6.rockspec


And I got this output:
Code:
Warning: variable CFLAGS was not passed in build_variables gcc -c -fPIC -Wall -Werror -O3 -g -I/usr/include/lua5.3  -o src/sleep.o src/sleep.c gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,sleep.so.0 -llua5.3  -o sleep.so.0.1 src/sleep.o install --preserve-timestamps --owner=root --group=root --mode=750 --target-directory=/usr/sbin src/fanctl install --preserve-timestamps --owner=root --group=root --mode=640 --target-directory=/lib/systemd/system systemd/fanctl.service if [ ! -d /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3 ];then \ mkdir -p /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3; \ fi install --preserve-timestamps --owner=root --group=root --mode=640 --target-directory=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3 sleep.so.0.1 if [ -L /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3/sleep.so ];then \ rm -f /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3/sleep.so; \ fi ln -s /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3/sleep.so.0.1 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/lua/5.3/sleep.so systemctl enable fanctl ats 0.1-6 is now installed in /usr/local (license: See License..)

When I run
Code:
service ats status

I get:

Code:

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, could someone help?

Hello Drago,

when you issue:
Code:
cat <<HERE >> /etc/luarocks/config.lua variables = {    UNISTD_INCDIR   = "/usr/include",    STAT_INCDIR     = "/usr/include/$( gcc -dumpmachine )",    TYPES_INCDIR    = "/usr/include/$( gcc -dumpmachine )",    LUALIB_INCDIR   = "/usr/include/lua5.3",    LAUXLIB_INCDIR  = "/usr/include/lua5.3",    LUA_INCDIR      = "/usr/include/lua5.3",    LUA53_LIBDIR    = "/usr/lib/$( gcc -dumpmachine )" } HERE

You need to press enter after Shy

If you don't succeed, then try the master version:
Code:
luarocks build https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuxd3v/ats/master/ats-master-0.rockspec

It will be the next stable version..

I tried installing the master version and still no luck.

Ok, no problem,  Shy
When you install the master branch version, what is the output you get?

I have tested with debian and with ubuntu versions, you are in DietPi, its nice if you could help me, so that I also improve compatibility with DietPi [Image: wink.png]

EDIT: Also what do you get in the logs?
Check with this command:
Code:
journalctl -u ats

Yup, You need to update your kernel..that version doesn't get exported to SysFs the needed controls..

I don't know if you have access to this Kernels, but try it:
Code:
apt-get update apt-get install linux-image-4.4.138-1097-rockchip-ayufan-gb5128c0a1684 linux-headers-4.4.138-1097-rockchip-ayufan-gb5128c0a1684 linux-firmware-image-4.4.138-1097-rockchip-ayufan-gb5128c0a1684 reboot
Then, reboot,
After reboot it should start automatically..

You can stop it,
Code:
service ats stop

 and run a test:
Code:
ats --test

To see timers and power it applies to fan, also temps..when done crtl+C

and start service again:
Code:
service ats start service ats status

Will updating the kernel mess with my DietPi install?
Nevermind, I was able to update the kernel and it works now! Thanks for your help!

Here's the output from test:

Code:

The fan is kind of loud actually, any advice on damping the sound?

For Now, its only possible editing : '/usr/local/sbin/ats'
In future releases, will be there a config file '/etc/ats.conf'

Changing the profile will lower the fan speed..
You can change line 68, of file  '/usr/local/sbin/ats'

change:
FANSPEC                         = "profile1"

for "profile2"
or even "profile3"

it will have a less aggressive power output..
What are the characteristics of your fan?

No problem,
You welcome Shy

In fact I have not yet documented it, sorry for that. 



Choose if you want one of those 3 profiles,
And adapt the timers in the line 97, in this function :
setTriggers     = function( self, x )

You will see  that for each range of temps are there some timers.
Quiet(the fan is stoped by this time in Seconds)
Run( The fan will run for that specified time in seconds )

You only need to change and then start ats again, and test the best option for your setup [Image: shy.png]

Hey,

ok so i´ve played arround with these settings a bit but im not sattisfied with the result i produced Big Grin

what i want to do is use Profile 3 or what ever and then i want the fan to always run but kinda slow so. this way it cools and is not as loud.

is that possible? if yes could you give me the numbers i need to put in and where? Smile

Greetings
Steffen

p.s. i think i found it my selfe after i wrote this post Big Grin

is this correct to change this setting: MAX_FAN_PWM?
I changed it to 150 and the fan is mutch quieter.

or am i wrong and did something fatal? Big Grin

That is one way of limiting without changing too much [Image: shy.png]
