    59 two FAN rotation speed sensors, VID lines and some miscellaneous stuff.

    6161Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius. An alarm is triggered whenever 
     
    6565has a resolution of 0.5 degrees, the limits of 1 degree.

    67 FAN rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is 
    68 triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. FAN 
     67Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is 
     68triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan 
    6969readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give 
    70 the readings more range or accuracy. This is important because some FANs 
    71 report only one 'tick' each rotation, while others report two - making 
    72 all readings twice as high. Not all RPM values can accurately be represented, 
    73 so some rounding is done. With a divider of 2, the lowest representable 
    74 value is around 2600 RPM.

    8886The analog output can be programmed separatedly. It can take values 
    8987between 0 and 255. What it actually does is mainboard-dependent; it 
    90 might influence the FAN-speed. Please report to us whether this is
