+=== Get the fan mode ===
+```shell
+fan.sh mode
 ```
-  * Read the fan mode: \\ ```shell
-$ fan.sh mode
+=== Set the fan speed ===
+^ fan speed ^ command ^
+| high | ''fan.sh high'' |
+| mid | ''fan.sh mid'' |
+| low | ''fan.sh low'' |
+=== Get CPU temperature ===
+```shell
+fan.sh temp
 ```
-  * Set the fan speed: \\ ```shell
-$ fan.sh high
+=== Get and Set the trigger temperature ===
-$ fan.sh mid

+```shell
+echo 40 | sudo tee /sys/class/fan/trigger_temp_low
 ```
-  * Read CPU temperature: \\ ```shell
-$ fan.sh temp
+<WRAP tip >
+The trigger temperature only effect the fan works in auto mode.
+</WRAP>
+=== Mainline linux ===
+Fan is controlled automatically by linux, and unit will be in millicelcius
+eg. get the auto trigger temp with
 ```
+cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_3_temp
+```
+eg. set the auto trigger temp to 40000 millicelcius
+```
+echo 40000 | sudo tee /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/trip_point_3_temp
+```
+<WRAP tip >
+To turn off the fan, set trigger temp to higher amount such as 80000, \\
+To turn on the fan, set the trigger temp to lower amount such as 10000.
