Hello tikonen,

You need to install the tool has root..

Hello Teemu,
You welcome.

That is a little bit strange, I use the same kernel..
seems that you don't have the sysfs files for control:

Code:

/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
/sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone1/temp
/sys/devices/platform/pwm-fan/hwmon/hwmon0/pwm1

find them with:

Code:

find /sys -name pwm[0-9] -o -name temp -type f

Then you need to change /etc/ats.conf, so that it would have same locations..
But post the output of that command..

regards

Hi, I had to change distro to aarch64 based, will have to check with that again when I've a change. Will report here if I encounter any issues.
Thanks!

Hi again, 
Got the pwm1 working with aarch64 distro version and kernel rockpro64 4.4.167-1197-rockchip-ayufan-ga7ca17f30176.  I can do echo 0-255 to sysfs /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/pwm1 and speed changes accordingly.
Also install with luarocks works fine now. 
Btw, there seems to be a small glitch in the installer as it fails this if there are more than one lua version installed.

Code:

root@rockpro64:~# luarocks build https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tuxd3v/ats/master/ats-0.2-0.rockspec

Hello TheSupercomputer,
What is the output of:

Code:

uname -a

Also, if you stop the service, and run it manually, what is the output:

Code:

systemctl stop ats
ats --test

It coud be also a kernel requirement..
But first, please post the output of commands above.

Best Regards,

Hi again, 
Got the pwm1 working with aarch64 distro version and kernel rockpro64 4.4.167-1197-rockchip-ayufan-ga7ca17f30176.  I can do echo 0-255 to sysfs /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/pwm1 and speed changes accordingly.

Hello tikonen,
Indeed,
'luarocks' has 'lua5.1' vm has a primary dependency..

I updated, the installation process, in that way, when you install 'luarocks', it will not use lua5.1 has default, it already have lua5.3 as default.. 

Code:

apt-get install lua5.3 lua5.3-dev gcc make
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/lua lua /usr/bin/lua5.3 1
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/luac luac /usr/bin/luac5.3 1
apt-get install luarocks

thanks for your observation,
I had detected it in the past..., but forgot to update the instructions, sorry for that 

Best Regards,

[TheSupercomputer]

It seems that there is a symlink missing while installing lua 5.3, am I right with that?

You right, probably, you forgot to create it.. 
Repeat all the steps to install dependencies, and then reinstall 

[TheSupercomputer]

Repeating every step seems to fix it, the fan is now spinning for some seconds goes of for a few seconds and start spinning again.
The Rockpr64 temps readed from Pihole are always above 50 degrees so there should be an pwm signal al the time, or is the on of cycle the pwm control?

EDIT: With "always on" option I got the behavior i was expected, exept for that if the minimum temp is reached ats produces an load spike pushing the temp above the minimum so the fan will speed up, slow down until near stop and spin up again.
