Raspberry Pi PWM fan control for Venus OS

Warning

WIP!!! Not useful right now!

Adds a PWM controlled fan using the CPU temperature to Victron Venus OS.

You need one free GPIO pin usable for PWM control (RPi3: GPIO 12,13,18,19, see below).

RPi3

Installation

  • VeFanControl requires that SetupHelper is installed first.

The easiest way to install VeFanControl is to do a "blind install" of SetupHelper and then add the RpiFanControl package via the PackageManager menus. This installs the package for GPIO12. If you need to setup another pin, you need to open a ssh connection to the RPi and call the setup manually on console (after download via PackageManager or with wget ...).

Refer to SetupHelper here: https://github.com/kwindrem/SetupHelper

Configuration

The package creates a configuration file on its first installation. Updates preserve the file and therefore the settings.
