Argon One Active Cooling and Active Linear Cooling Addon

Thank you. I will try today when I am back home.

Hi,
I think, I2C is my problem.

V3 doesnt work as well.
I have an argonone m.2 with a rpi4.

Works after 15 reboots. I dont know why

Enable advanced settings in your user profile.

I have exactly the same problem. Have you found a solution to the problem?

It just stopped working…
I tried to run HassOS I2C Configurator addon again, and the log is below…

Found i2c access!  Nothing to do!  You can remove this add-on.

I guess every thing is fine…
And when I run the ArgonOne Active Linear Cooling (tried with V3 too) addon, I got this erros:

Hi. Thanks for your support.

I have one question. I installed all of your guidance correctly but, Argon one fan not working. fan spins up on boot but once the os runs it stops. ( however in ArgonONe Active cooling log, level 4 fan activating) can i get help?

There is no argon one connected to the i2c bus or it is not responding

Use the v3 addon

Hi,
Unfortunately, my fan already runs at full fan power at >0%.

It looks good in the log but instead of >0% the fan turns on at 100%.

Having the same issues as @phcella mentioned.

Everything looks fine when enabling I2C, but gives the same error in Argon log.

Last couple of days, after the latest HA updates, the fan seemed to run at 100% so I shut HA for the night. Did not verify fan speed from the logs but by the sound of the fan.
Next day when I booted again the fan has not said anything expect shortly when unplugging the power and booting up.

Any ideas what to try next?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I am a noob to Home Assistant and Github. I have followed the instructions for getting the i2c enabled, however I’m stuck on step 5 “Add this Repository URL”. Where can I find this URL? I wasn’t sure if it was somewhere obvious I’m just missing seeing it.

I’ve read several topics that showed how to fix it when they weren’t able to install or run it correctly, but that’s not what’s happening here…
Apparently the installation is correct with everything working, the fan percentage appears relative to the temperature, but the fan is always on, even when it shows as being at 0%.
I’ll put the logs here… any help is welcome! :+1:

Hello,
I’m encountering an issue with controlling the fan on my Argon40 case using Home Assistant, despite what seems to be a correct I2C setup and successful add-on installation. I’d appreciate any guidance or suggestions on what to try next.

System Details:

-----------------------------------------------------------
Add-on: ArgonOne Active Cooling
Actively keeping your Argon One cool.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Add-on version: 30a
You are running the latest version of this add-on.
System: Home Assistant OS 12.4  (aarch64 / raspberrypi4-64)
Home Assistant Core: 2024.8.0
Home Assistant Supervisor: 2024.08.0
-----------------------------------------------------------

Issue Summary:
• The Argon40 fan does not respond to software control (e.g., setting fan speed via Home Assistant), even though:
◦ The I2C interface is enabled and configured correctly.
◦ The add-on reports successful connection to the I2C bus (I2C Port 1, address 0x1A).
◦ The fan will operates continuously when the jumper is set to “always on,” indicating the fan and power supply are functional. However, if I set the jumper to “default” so the addon can control it ? the fan doesn’t run other than for 5 seconds on boot up

Steps and Results So Far:

  1. Initial Add-on Installation:
    ◦ Installed the Argon40 add-on.
    ◦ Add-on successfully connects to I2C bus, detects the fan, and attempts to set fan speeds based on temperature.
    ◦ Logs show commands being sent (e.g., setting fan speed to 100%), but the fan does not audibly respond.

  2. Hardware Checks:
    ◦ Tested with two different brand-new Argon40 cases.
    ◦ When the jumper is set to “always on,” the fan runs continuously at 100%.
    ◦ If Jumper is set to “default” , On boot, the fan spins briefly, indicating that the power supply and fan are functioning.

  3. I2C Voltage Check:
    ◦ Using a multimeter, I measured 3.3V on both the SDA (GPIO 2) and SCL (GPIO 3) pins while the fan was supposed to be running at 100%.

  4. Attempted Direct I2C Commands:
    ◦ Installed i2c-tools and attempted to send direct I2C commands via the terminal.
    ◦ Received “Operation not permitted” errors despite having permissions turned off in the Home Assistant SSH and terminal addon.

  5. Add-on Alternatives:
    ◦ Installed a different Argon40 add-on to test if another software approach would work but it suffers the same fate, no errrors, indicates its running but fan is still not running.

  6. Logs :
    • There are no error logs for either addon, as mentioned both addons report working fine but for example if the “argon one active cooling” addon reports that it is running at %100 and NOT in quiet mode, my expectations are that I would hear the fan spinning flat out like I do if I set the jumper to “always on”

Question:

Where do I go from here to diagnose / fix the problem please as im now pulling my hair out ?

PS: As per the below graph, the cpu temps were around 40c when I had the jumper set to “always on” and been sitting around 60c with the jumper on default and the active cooling addon enabled and controlling the fan at %100 apparently.

Did you try the v3 app?

I hadn’t no, but i just installed it then and instantly things worked as expected, how embarrassing, i’ve spent a week doing all sorts to try and diagnose that lol

awesome work by the way , thanks Adam
