This guide is only for X715 V1.0 shield based on RASPBIAN.
git clone https://github.com/geekworm-com/x735-v2.5.git==How to control PWM fan speed==The PWM fan is not rotating when X715 is connected to PI 4, we need to to install the pwm fan control script
At this time, the #fan is still not rotatingcontrol code need pigpiod library, so we need to continue to install the pwm fan control scriptit firstly. sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y pigpio python3-pigpio python3-rpi.gpio sudo systemctl enable pigpiod git clone https://github.com/geekworm-com/x715
We can manually run the following commands: //reboot to enable pigpiod sudo reboot  cd ~ python python3 /home/pi/x735-v2.5x715/pwm_fan_control.py& Then the x735 x715 fan will start working.
But we hope that the script can be executed automatically when the Raspberry Pi board boots, we can use crontab system command to achieve it. please refer to the following
6. == How to start PWM fan when pi 4 boots==The following comment is from [[X735 V2.5 Software]]
sudo crontab -e
Add a line at the end of the file that reads like this:
'''''@reboot python python3 /home/pi/x735-v2.5x715/pwm_fan_control.py'''''
Please note the path of this file.
== How to read the fan RPM?==
please refer to /home/pi/x735-v2.5x715/read_fan_speed.py, and this is only show how to get the fan speed every second, run the following command. sudo python python3 /home/pi/x735-v2.5x715/read_fan_speed.py Return to [[X715]]
