Missing Fan LED option (On/Off/Follow) in Settings UX

General
1

I posted a different issue in which my RGB fan is always turning to ‘always on mode’. In researching I am noticing a missing setting in the UX:

In the instructions View and Control from Dashboard — SunFounder Pironman 5 documentation

There is a screenshot of the UX that an option for the Fan LED to be set to On, Off or Follow.

My UX does not include this option. I only have the Fan Mode setting.

The debug log seems to show that the setting is being passed on init to Follow:

‘gpio_fan_led’: ‘follow’
see below:

  1. Did this UX option get removed intentionally? Is this a bug?
  2. What do these different modes do? On / Off / Follow?

  1. We are very sorry, but in the current version we have changed the RGB fan mode to “always on”.
    If you want to turn off the RGB fan, you can adjust the fan mode to do so.
  2. The option to set the fan LEDs to ON, OFF or FOLLOW is not available in the current version of pironman5.
    The screenshot in the tutorial shows the option to set the fan LEDs to on, off or follow, which is an option that is available in the pironman5 V2 upgrade that we are working on and ready to go live, where the LEDs of the RGB fan and the fan can be controlled independently of each other.
  3. and the log display you mentioned:
    25/02/12 19:56:21.404 [DEBUG] Update gpio_fan_led to follow
    25/02/12 19:56:21.404 [DEBUG] Update gpio_fan_led_pin to 5
    25/02/12 19:56:21.404 [DEBUG] Init GPIO Fan with pin: 6
    Don’t worry about it, it’s for us to test the subsequent pironman5 V2 upgrade.

You also reported in another thread that after pironman5 components are installed in Home Assistant, the settings are reset after a reboot or shutdown and restart after changing the settings. We have also found that bug and we are currently working on fixing it, so please be patient.
After we fix it successfully, we will reply you on the corresponding post.
