By default it's always on.

If you (optionally) install the daemon then it can use the Pi SoC's internal temperature sensor to control dynamically based on need.

@mindcrime - I can't reply to you due to max depth. The current version doesn't, we're having a new, custom, fan made with an RPM feedback line for a future model but it'll be a couple of months yet.

Nice.

I don't suppose it has a fan RPM sensor or anything, so one can monitor the health of the fan itself?
