For some reason on the Pironman5, i cant get the CPU fan to run, in the documentation on github for the pironman command usage, the -f and --fan option are present, however in the clone of the github repo, this command is missing.
on the webgui the CPU fan is differenciated from the RGB fans, the CPU fan is at a permanent 0 and i also cant get it to run, i tried stressing the system to get the temps up and get it to start. it doesnt.
i checked the assembly twice now. its assembled correctly, only thing it could be is the fan being broken or the pironman software is broken.
The tower cooler is not working because the CPU temperature has not exceeded 50 degrees Celsius, so the fan speed is 0, and the fan remains off.
Please refer to our tutorial: CPU fan not working.
The PWM fan operates dynamically, adjusting its speed according to the Raspberry Pi 5’s temperature:
Below 50°C: The fan remains off (0% speed).
At 50°C: The fan operates at low speed (30% speed).
At 60°C: The fan increases to medium speed (50% speed).
At 67.5°C: The fan ramps up to high speed (70% speed).
At 75°C and above: The fan operates at full speed (100% speed).
If you want to verify whether the cooler fan is working, you can switch the RGB fan mode to Quiet mode. The RGB fan will turn off, and after some time, when the CPU temperature rises above 50 degrees Celsius, check if the cooler fan starts working.
