Test Preferences – Temperature & Battery |

Temperature monitoring It is possible to monitor and log the temperature of some hardware components while running BurnInTests. BurnInTest can monitor CPU and HDD temperatures for certain systems, or you can use a 3rd party Temperature Monitoring Application with BurnInTest.

To select the application that monitors temperature, select:

• | No Monitoring

• | BurnInTest

• | Intel Active Monitor and Intel Desktop Utilities (Hardware Monitor)

• | Hmonitor

• | MBM (Motherboard Monitor) or

• | SpeedFan

The temperature scale of Celsius or Fahrenheit that is required should be selected.

BurnInTest

If you are using BurnInTest, you can select up to 3 temperature sources, including certain Intel CPUs, AMD CPUs and Hard disks.

These 3 sources are displayed on the results display. All available temperature values will be stored in the log file at periodic intervals if a periodic logging interval is specified.

Hmonitor

If you are using Hmonitor, you can select from a range of Hmonitor provided temperature sources, such as CPU1 and CPU2.

Other

If you are using other 3rd party products, the first 3 valid sensors available from these applications are used by BurnInTest on the results main display. By default these are typically CPUs, the Case or hard disks.

See Temperature and battery monitoring for more details.

Battery monitoring (via BatteryMon)

BurnInTest can work with another product from PassMark Software called BatteryMon. BatteryMon allows the charge level in laptop batteries and uninterruptible power supplies UPSs to be monitored. Click the check box to turn on the feature.
