Add Fan Speed To Config, Change Fan Speed through Config Options

[CompFreak07]

This is a code snippet to let you change your fan speed in the Dash Config. You can set it on intervals of 10 only starting from 20 - 100. (example 30 or 40 not 33 or 41 ext) I also added a safety feature that is if by accident it gets set to somthing besides a interval of 10 then your fan wont stop working it will automaticaly set it to 100 % speed. Open default.xip/default.xap.
Locate:

CODE

  theAmbientSound3.Play();

theXboxNetwork.StartServices();
theXboxNetwork.StartFTPServices();

And right after that insert:

CODE

SetFanSpeed();

At the end of default.xap paste:

CODE

// Function to set Fan Speed

function SetFanSpeed() //Exiles
{
var IniFile = new Settings;
IniFile.SetIniSection( "Sys Config" );
var FanSpeedST = IniFile.GetIniValue( "FanSpeed" );
var FanSpeedS = ReturnInteger(FanSpeedST);
if (FanSpeedS==20) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(20); }
else if (FanSpeedS==30) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(30); }
else if (FanSpeedS==40) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(40); }
else if (FanSpeedS==50) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(50); }
else if (FanSpeedS==60) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(60); }
else if (FanSpeedS==70) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(70); }
else if (FanSpeedS==80) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(80); }
else if (FanSpeedS==90) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(90); }
else if (FanSpeedS==100) { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(100); }
else { theConfig.SetFanSpeed(100); }
}

Save default.xap and default.xip.

Open default.xip / config.xap

Locate:

CODE

function BuildMainList()

Scroll down until you see

CODE

ClearText();
UpdateText();
}

right above that paste:

CODE

configList[i] = "Fan Speed:";
configValues[i] = "c-Sys Config-FanSpeed";
configSelect[i] = "ConfigKeyB()";
i = i + 1;

Finally add this on the bottom of your uix.ini

CODE

[Sys Config]
FanSpeed=100

mmmmm code......

you change it damn it. is not 100 if you dont want to.




Great Code.

[CompFreak07]

Fan Speed is 100 because that is what I always run it on because I have a upgraded Hard Drive. You can change it to whatever you want. If any of you are using the "Hard Drive, Free And Used Space Display" I added to it to show your fan speed. Click Here to see it

Great Code. 

What's wrong to ask? I don't wanna fry my xbox, my bios runs fanspeed 30 but for the dash 100 looks suspicious and now when I know whats was the reason for that everything is ok and I am so grateful, thax CompFreak07 realy great code.

[CompFreak07]

No problem, I dont mind anyone asking questions. The more questions people ask the more stuff that might get done.

[motofo]

Does changing the speed make the xbox alot louder? Also is there a tuturoil on how to write you own code? I know a little bit of java and i think i could catch on if i had a guide explaining the syntax.

[CompFreak07]

For any of you who have used this code you would know you have to type in the fan speed you want on the xbox keyboard app. Well I have mafe it eaiser so all you have to do is click on it in the config and it will go from 20 to 30 and then from 30 to 40 and so on. Open up Default.xip/Config.xap. Then search for :

CODE

configList[i] = "Fan Speed:";

Below that where it says :

CODE

configSelect[i] = "ConfigKeyB()";

replace that with :

CODE

configSelect[i] = "ToggleFan()";

Now at the end of Default.xip/Config.xap add :

CODE

function ToggleFan()
{
   var c = theConfigPanel.children[0].children[0];
   var b = c.theRightSlots.children[LV2Item].children[0].geometry.text;
   if(b.toLowerCase() == "20") { RefreshMenu("30"); }
   else if(b.toLowerCase() == "30") { RefreshMenu("40"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "40") { RefreshMenu("50"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "50") { RefreshMenu("60"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "60") { RefreshMenu("70"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "70") { RefreshMenu("80"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "80") { RefreshMenu("90"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "90") { RefreshMenu("100"); }
  else if(b.toLowerCase() == "100") { RefreshMenu("20"); }
}

That should do it. Restart your xbox and enjoy

thx

Can't get this to work...

I can change the fanspeed in the "System Settings Menu" ..to for instance 80 or something, but when I reboot etc the fan is still at 20 % speed..nothing happens.

What am I doing wrong?

[Godflesh]

Could someone please have a look at my files and fix em so they will work? Been trying for about 2 hours now ..and still no luck.

p.s. XBMC has a nice feature called "Auto Temperature Control" ...would be awesome if UIX had the some option build within it like thise. ..if for instance you play a game the fan automaticly starts to spin harder etc.
They more heat is generated (Movie / Games) the harder it cools.

Do me and everyone else a favor before you decide to post links to files. Read the God Damned rules! Sorry for the brashness, but man you cannot have links to xips or the such on the forums. Post your xap as a text file if necessary. Kill the link immediately.
