2. Altitude
Option Values: 300m or less
301m-900m
901m-1500m
Higher than 1500m
Help Text:
[300m or less] (980ft or less)
Optimal performance setting near sea level.
[301m - 900m] (980ft - 2950ft)
Optimal performance setting at moderate elevation.
[901m - 1500m] (2950ft - 4920ft)
Optimal performance setting at high elevation.
[Higher than 1500m] (4920ft or greater)
Optimal performance setting at the highest elevations.
Comments: This option sets an altitude value in order to choose a Fan Profile that is
optimized for the air density at the current altitude at which the system is installed.

3. Set Fan Profile
Option Values: Performance
Acoustic
Help Text:
[Performance] - Fan control provides primary system cooling before attempting to
throttle memory.
[Acoustic] - The system will favor using throttling of memory over boosting fans to cool
the system if thermal thresholds are met.
Comments: This option sets an altitude value in order to choose a Fan Profile that is
optimized for the air density at the current altitude at which the system is installed.

4. Fan PWM Offset
Option Values: [Entry Field 0 – 100, 0
is default]
Help Text:
Valid Offset 0 - 100. This number is added to the calculated PWM value to increase Fan
Speed.
Comments: This is a percentage by which the calculated fan speed will be increased.
The user can apply positive offsets that result in increasing the minimum fan speeds.
