Server Temperature Monitor
The Server Temperature Monitor works with the free SpeedFan utility program. You need to download it from http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php and install it (it can be downloaded and installed in under a minute). After it is installed, the Server Temperature Monitor will interact with it to extract current temperature values from the various temperature probes installed in the computer.
NOTE: Because SpeedFan interacts with the local hardware, this monitor only works on the computer where the monitoring program is installed.
To configure the Server Temperature Monitor, simply specify the path to the SpeedFan.exe file (the default path given is typically correct). Then indicate whether you have run SpeedFan directly before (Because SpeedFan interacts with and probes very low-level hardware, the SpeedFan website suggests caution when first running it in case there are any issues. Running it on test hardware is recommended).
After the path has been specified and you've indicated SpeedFan runs OK on your computer, SpeedFan will be launched in the background. Live temperatures will then be collected and displayed.
Default temperature thresholds are shown to the right of the live temperatures. Simply click a temperature threshold and change it to whatever value you like.
Like all monitors, this monitor has standard buttons on the right for Adding Actions, setting Advanced Monitor Options and setting the Monitor Schedule.
