Hi all!
Finally got my MX232, it was pretty hard to get it here in Hungary I have also 2 Dallas temp probes. I'd like to display their measured temp in MotherBoard Monitor, but I couldn't make it work. Does anyone has experience with it? Is it possible? Thnx in advance
The Dallas temperature probes work independently of MBM, therefore you must set it up in LCDC accordingly. On the eCD you received with your MX2 device, an explanation is given on how to accomplish this!

As I see now my main problem is in MMB. I've used it for a long time, but never tried to set up external temp probes. MMB detects only the sensors on the mobo (winbond xxx), not the dallas one. There's a possibility to add one external source (custom), but it says some other program (lcdc?) is needed to provide the temp info. I am able to display this temperature on the lcd screen, but didn't find the option to "send" this information to MMB. I'm not sure this explanation is clear enough, I try to ask the question in the MMB forum, too. Thnx for your help.
I checked the manual on the cd but only found the basic setup of MMB and the method of getting info from MMB. If it's written somewhere and I am the dumb please help me to locate it
So far I couldn't find any sotware doing this thing, so I'd need to write one. The only problem is I am not a coder But maybe I can find someone who is. Just to make it clear, I'd need a program what sends a query to the temp probe, that returns the temp value, and then I'd need to output that information somehow to MMB, right? LCDC's temp reading and displaying "plugin" can be modified to do this?
"LCDC's temp reading and displaying "plugin" can be modified to do this?"
I don't understand what you mean. Are you asking me to rewrite the MBM plugin for LCDC just for you so that you can send the temp probe data to MBM? ANd why?
Sorry if my post had that meaning, I don't ask you anything "just for me". I was only thinking about the access method of the temp probes. LCDC already has a way to access them, so I thought it can be modified to output this data somehow. Or it can be possible to write a plugin for LCDC what takes this data and sends it to MMB. I'm not asking you to do this, just thinking about the possible solutions.
I should of read your country location first Your English is very reasonable in that case. It *would* be possible to adjust the MBM plugin to feed this data back to MBM. Although you have still not said why, and also it will take a fair amount of work to do, as at present the MBM plugin for LCDC is not *Aware* that the probes even exist. The whole thing would have to be manually configured, which then also means writing all of that as well...
Thnx The main purpose of the whole thing would be to log the temp data of the probes, and use MMB's warning/shutdown features for these temperatures (I'd like to attach them to the GPU and the Northbridge). I'm building a PC with almost only case coolers (except the CPU), that's the reason I'd like to read/log/use these temperatures. As I wrote I am not a programmer, so I didn't know it'd be so hard to do this
