Hi,

  With the summer hotness I was tired of continuously adjusting my S5 frequency, so I decided myself to dive into shell coding and wrote a small script to do it automatically.

  I'm pretty happy with what I got: every 20 minutes the script checks the temp sensors, increase or decrease the frequency and restarts cgminer. Thus I keep the temp between 58 and 62 °C at all time.

  If you're interested you can download the script on github: https://github.com/kmitz/Regul
  Installation notes are on my blog: https://jomcflyatwork.wordpress.com/

  You can ask me questions in this thread or PM me for help.

  Cheers!

NB: If you worry about my script stealing all your coins, just check the script, it's only 40 lines and very straightforward:
1)read temp
2)write new frequency in /config/cgminer.conf
3)restart cgminer

You may want to disable variable fan control if you haven't already, if it gets cool enough your 3 variables will keep flip flopping.

I have 4 watercooled S5's so 4 blades and 2 controller boards.
the fan speed is constant via watercooling system
I have no fan connceted to any of the s5's
but I can't get the script to work.
1 time it changed freq back to 200 another time it does noting.

I would love some help becouse sometime at night i am seeing temps below 40 on all s5'5
