Fan control utility for BCM2712 SOC

Syntax:

 fan-rpi5 [options]

Runs on:

QNX OS

Options:

These are the options available for this driver.

-v: Set verbosity.

The fan is controlled by writing to the the /dev/fan device. The speed of the fan is controlled by the pwm which uses value ranging between 0 ~ 255.

Examples:

cat /dev/fan               Get current speed control value
echo 0 > /dev/fan          Turn off the fan
echo 130 > /dev/fan        Set speed control value to 130
