NAME

       zcfan - zero-configuration fan control daemon for ThinkPads

DESCRIPTION

       zcfan is a minimal, zero-configuration fan control daemon for ThinkPads.

OPTIONS

       zcfan  does  not take any options. If any are provided, a help message will be printed and
       zcfan will exit.

CONFIGURATION

   USAGE
       zcfan has the following default fan states:

              Config name   thinkpad_acpi fan level   Default trip temperature (C)
              ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
              max_temp      7                         90
              med_temp      4                         80
              low_temp      1                         70

       You can optionally override  this  configuration  at  /etc/zcfan.conf  with  your  desired
       threshold values in the following format:

              max_temp 85
              med_temp 70
              low_temp 55

       If no trip temperature is reached, the fan will be turned off.

   HYSTERESIS
       We will only reduce the fan level again once:

       1. The temperature is now at least 10C below the trip point, and

       2. At least 3 seconds have elapsed since the initial trip.

       This avoids unnecessary fluctuations in fan speed.

DEPENDENCIES

       thinkpad-acpi must be loaded with fan_control=1.
