Where is the configuration of macsfancontrol stored

Post by xmag »

Hi all,

I had my Macbook repaired (Late2011 GPU problem( by a company that only gives guarantee on their repair if I install macsfancontrol. Now one month later, the notebook
broke again and they want to see the Logfile as prove. I didn't activate the log as I wasn't aware they need it as prove. Is it possible to find my configuration
somewhere on the Harddrive? I found some logs in /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/MacsFanControl_* but unfortunately not the config.
Is it stored in com.crystalidea.macsfancontrol.plist ?

Cheers, xmag

Ok,

in the meantime I have answered the question myself. Yes it is stored in com.crystalidea.macsfancontrol.plist.
I was able to open it in some free plist editor. Is there any documentation somewhere, which sensors correspond to
TC0D and TG0D ?

Cheers, Alex

You can turn on log in Preferences. It will be stored on your desktop
the .plist file is the configuration file which likely to be changed in the next version.
