View and Control from Dashboard

Once you have successfully installed the pironman5 module, the pironman5.service will start automatically upon reboot.

Now you can open the monitoring page in your browser to see the information about your Raspberry Pi, configure the RGB, and control the fan, etc. The page link is: http://<ip>:34001.

This page has Dashboard, History, Log, and a Settings page.

Dashboard

There are multiple cards to view the relevant status of the Raspberry Pi, including:

  • Temperature: View the Raspberry Pi’s CPU/GPU temperature and CPU fan speed. GPIO Fan State shows the status of the two side GPIO Fans.

Log

The Log page displays the runtime log of the Pironman5 service.

  • Log entries can be filtered by level (Debug, Info, Warning, Error, or Critical).

  • The log file can also be downloaded locally.
