Safe all your work before using this version.
In the tab general throttle, (name doesn't fit anymore, suggestions)
The rules go into the rules line (Top) and become active when you press Add.
Warning they become active at once....
The check Enable General Throttle does.... NOTHING.
The exclude does... NOTHING.
Does a emergency shutdown so be careful it shuts down quickly without saving anything.
if cpu temperature > 70 shutdown
This engages the full general throttle at this temperature all processed are throttled
if cpu temperature > 64 throttle
The set temperature is still the temperature that will be regulated. But when the General Throttle engages all programs will be throttled.
if cpu temperature > 68 email
This sends an email.
Fixed problems:
The throttle did not go low enough but to 25% instead of 5%.
The threads lost is gone, instead the rebuild time is 1/2 when threads are lost. But these frequent warnings are gone.
Added:
The update version check is now done in a better way.
I tested using 45/48/50 and cranked up stress64.
The emergency throttle functioned as speced.
I would like to have more options for each phase.
The ability to execute a file (with parameters) would add more flexability.
I have a .bat file to beep to call me to the computer when the problem starts:
start /min "C:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winamp.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\SpeedFan\Balloon.mp3"
timeout /T "6"
taskkill /IM "winamp.exe" /f
I have a .bat file to hibernate so I can wake up after a cool down period and see what is running that caused the problem.
powercfg -h on
%WINDIR%\system32\shutdown.exe /h
I think that alarms and flashing lights should be part of the final GUI.
This is looking good ... more to come.
Hi all,
I'm testing in my laptop (xp pro x32) with 80/68/72, now it looks like that the throttling is much more efective.
I'll try when I'll come back home to do the same switches but lower values for the desktops.
why not "General Throttling" ---> Throttle Specs
the 2nd (tm) now is correct, and not any more strange symbols. :D
happy w-end, Corsair. ;)
Hi All,
I'm testing now in my desktops (xp pro x64) and by a typing error
I've seen that is working pretty well. ;D
I think that with the options that you give in the "wish List" is enough
and no much more could be added in the way of Trottling, so could be
fine an arrangement like this:
[Thick box] text [integer box] action
e.g.
[Thick box] if cpu temperature above [integer box] shutdown
[Thick box] if cpu temperature above [integer box] throttle
[Thick box] if cpu temperature above [integer box] email
[Thick box] if cpu temperature below [integer box] email
[Thick box] if gpu temperature below [integer box] email
It could be esair and not needed the big windows, on that way the user
could not made errors on typing or copying.
Cheers, Corsair.

You could still make the typo.
But when this is worked out a bit I want to make this one as expert and a easier one for default.
<<But when this is worked out a bit I want to make this one as expert and a easier one for default.>>
I ask you to please add the ability to execute a program or bat file.
Thanks

A new one. 1.6.1.1. A 32 and 64 bit version. 3 files + 1 wav.
I updated the email client radically to include encryption. So it should work now with Gmail.com etc.
The rules have expended throttle email shutdown execute1 execute2 execute3 sound
if cpu temperature > 70 sound reset 60 [plays alarm.wav from the exe directory at 70 degrees, it resets a 60. Meaning the sound will activate above 70 and will only sound again if the temperature drops below 60 and goes up again above 70.
Reset is valid with all commands except throttle and shutdown ;D.
the command execute1 2 3 try to execute a bat file in the same location as the exe called execute1.bat 2 3
if cpu temperature > 74 execute1 reset 50 may bring your computer in sleep mode. (if the bat file tels it to...)
The Mail now includes a check TLS (default on). This is the recommended secure way to send E-Mails.
A log file is written to:
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\eFMer\TThrottle\maillog.txt
Vista: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\eFMer\TThrottle\maillog.txt
Nice to look at the log to see what is going on. And I'm interested in the log. Warning: do not include it on this board, as some email servers send the password back as acknowledge, for everyone to see ???.
I will probably remove the exclude programs....
Need to rename the tab to ... rules ??

Ok that's it <send HELO/EHLO first>, he wants to say hello again, I will make a new version tomorrow that says HELO a second time, be more friendly.
He wants to make sure the TLS pipe is working.
Already noticed something like that in Gmail (works ok).

Hi all,
why not include in the beggining of the log the settings of general Throttle tab??
in case that the log has to be sent, there would be more information available for debug.

A last version I hope before translation and a new beta version.

New in this version a rule add sequence, to make it easier to add rules.
An extra rule reboot. I use this on an unattended system to reboot when the GPU becomes idle. This happens when BOINC (CUDA) crashes.... and will automatically restart the system.
e.g. :
if GPU temperature < 60 reboot reset 70
if GPU temperature < 62 email
Added some colors to the list Red for active, Blue for: can become active and Black waiting for reset of the rule.
Renamed the tab general throttle to rules ;D
The rules changes no longer stick.
This is not the new ADD Rule at the top
Quote from: benDan on June 16, 2009, 07:22:32 PM

Do some more checking on that. Changed the list handling a bit, to add the colors. If you can reproduce it ?? That would be nice ;D.
select rule 1.
It moves up but the last rule in the list disappears.
The selected rule stays down below.

yeah, that was the strange thing that I've seen in this release, I didn't know how
to explain it because because I didn't know what happened, when you say remove,
the one that I've pointed was still in the list and another rule dissapeared.
but looks quite cool and really works very well, so well that I was, as we say in Spanish,
"with the fly around the ear" because of the temperature in Phenom that was running at
100% at 64 dec Celsius, so I decided to dismantle the case and clean everything (Tons &
Tons of Shi... dust :'() my surprise was when switched on again the computer and working
at full load the CPU temperature was 15 deg. Celsius lower, now is working at 48, 49 deg. ;D
Cheers all, Carmelo.

Ok I know enough to do some testing on that part, something looks wrong. Should not be too hard to find.
Ok this one is without the listbox error. And hopefully without any errors ;D

programs, BOINC, Temperatures, and graphic work.
Rules Listbox error fixed. just an observation ... no reset option in rule add sequence.
emergency throttle works
Preference works ... email test works.
logging history missing shows only the last info
Threads info 0 or blank
Expert seems to work (the parts I use anyway)
I removed your email info (It is your password and username) I looks encrypted but is is not.
I did not add everything in the "rule maker", only the basic stuff. The rest can be done directly. Reset and so is more dangerous.... ;D
Threads is blank because you are out of CUDA work, as the rest of us if there is no new work.
Hi Fred,
as far as I see it looks like that everything is working fine.
for the CUDA I can not say anything as I've no NVIDIA wich supports
CUDA computing as my two NVIDIA cards are little "old" 2 years and
not support CUDA processing.
I have just arrive and found in the laptop (x86) the infamous window with
".... TThrottle must close because ....." and the subsequent reporting to
Microsoft but I've seen that Tthrottle has not been closed (UFFF!!!) my
laptop could burn.
Ready for translation ;D
Cheers, Corsair.
Ok the rc for 1.6.2. Will send the translators a separate mail.

Yes, probably a better name.. It's sometimes hard to find the right name.
Works on one computer with a hungry graphic card, it pushes up the temperature by 10C. So that's a good indication that it works. ;D
Hello Fred,
after installing the RC, I tried the Mail Program. C++ give an error and exit it. You have an EMail about it.

Hi all,
name exchange for CUDA Tab, I agree and think it's much better.
the option of language in the Preferences tab is really good idea,
and much better that every language appears in its own name.
but there is not a "Apply" button for inmediate exchange of the
program language (could be nice instead of restarting the program)
at the moment all the alarms in the "Rules" Tab works really well.
the only thing I've seen in previous version 1.6.1.3 is when started
from a shortcut that has blank the "start from:" is that the
Tthrottle.xml is not read. and checked in this version too.
see the log, run as startup and with a shortcut, no .xml read:

not too often in the stable version (of course it use to be in my mother tongue),
but in this last RC, yes, on the way to know what is the real "english" term that
could give a fix, reference, etc. sometimes as there is no proper direct Spanish
translation I have to refer to the English name, some of the terms I remember,
but other I have to come back to the English version. :D

by the way, could be usefull a tag after the scroll windows something
like "needs restart the program" or "will take effects in the next run".
or
a button of "restart program" too. ??? ;)

Ok lets see if I can do something for the next version.
For now I wait for all the translations to come in.
I think all the bugs are resolved and I will probably make this one a final release in a couple of days.
Ok the final version 1.6.2 (1), only missing the French translation.

The program never came that far.. it crashed before it was at the point of writing a log file.
It may be the Visual Studio installation.
I wait to see if I get a second report of a crash of the mail program.
I just gave the latest version (1_6_2_1_rc) a try, but it doesn't recognize my graphic-card
1.60 saw the graphic-card
Sorry, I forgot: It is a nvidia Quadro GVS 290 with cuda-drivers 181.20
Well, I found my installation DVD. I got another crash nearly two hours ago just when I was typing an E-Mail and tried to upload an attachemend. Guess my machine don't like skripts of any kind in the moment. All crashes occured when I was working with programs / websites which are either known or suspected to work with skripts.
So, I will do some bakup stuff and get the installation goind. *sigh* I hate that.

Sorry, I already have uninstalled the RC; have gone back to 1.60.
The bad thing is, even 1.60 doesn't see the graphic-card now :-(
At the moment I'm uninstalling 1.60 again, uninstalling VC++ manual in System-management and rebooting the machine to make a fresh install of 1.60 ...
Will the logfile of 1.60 b helpful or would I have to go to RC first ?
Strange, but I don't get it working again :-((

Strange indeed, as I didn't change the interface. Check out 186.18 the latest drivers.
Does BOINC detect the card?
as far as I see this last version is working fine and everything looks like well translated.
sigh :'( as usual I have done on the wrong way, uninstalled the RC1 and seen that everything was the same, I carefully installed in the laptop and see the differences in my all x64 version computers I have installed again the RC1 instead the RC2, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I´ll fix it right now.
as I told you the version x86 is working fine in the laptop.
nice beers (& wine) for everybody in this weekend (and upcoming too), Carmelo. ;D ;D ;D ;)
