Hey Guys,
for all the Yoga 3 14 users I have created a semi working config with the info I got from earlier posts. It might help some of you.
Known issues:
- will only turn off the fan completely
- will only turn off the fan when the highest core temperature is below 40°C
It's enough for me as I am sometimes just browsing (in power saving mode to limit processor heat) or reading stuff on the Yoga in the library. For those of you who need more advanced control this is not gonna solve your problem.
Here's how you create the config:
-right click on your desktop --> new --> text file --> name Yoga_3_14_on/off_only or something --> open the text file
- insert the following code
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<FanControlConfigV2 xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<NotebookModel>80JH</NotebookModel>
<Author />
<EcPollInterval>1000</EcPollInterval>
<ReadWriteWords>false</ReadWriteWords>
<CriticalTemperature>75</CriticalTemperature>
<FanConfigurations>
<FanConfiguration>
<ReadRegister>6</ReadRegister>
<WriteRegister>86</WriteRegister>
<MinSpeedValue>0</MinSpeedValue>
<MaxSpeedValue>80</MaxSpeedValue>
<ResetRequired>true</ResetRequired>
<FanSpeedResetValue>0</FanSpeedResetValue>
<FanDisplayName>Fan1</FanDisplayName>
<TemperatureThresholds />
<FanSpeedPercentageOverrides>
<FanSpeedPercentageOverride>
<FanSpeedPercentage>100</FanSpeedPercentage>
<FanSpeedValue>50</FanSpeedValue>
</FanSpeedPercentageOverride>
</FanSpeedPercentageOverrides>
</FanConfiguration>
</FanConfigurations>
<RegisterWriteConfigurations />
</FanControlConfigV2>
- save the file
- right click on the file --> change name --> change ending from .txt to .xml (you might need to change the windows settings in order to see file endings, goolge will help you here)
- move the file to your installation folder of NoteBook FanControl (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\NoteBook FanControl\Configs)
- open NoteBook FanControl --> select a config --> Yoga_3_14_on/off_only
Sorry for not simply uploading the file but like that the info is here as long as the servers of the forum allow it
Hope I could help!
