This wiki page is inspired by [https://www.psx-place.com/threads/syscon-fan-settings-coordinate-graphs.31188/ this thread], the coordinate graph images from that thread are made by me (sandungas) and eventually i will upload new versions of them to wiki, but not yet because at the time of writing this (may 2021) are not the final version<!--i dont want to upload multiple versions of the images to wiki because that wiki feature always gives me problems-->

When talking about thermal configs is very convenient to use unique identifyers for them, and the checksum "protection" used by syscon is perfect for that purpose, in [[Mullion]] series this is specially accurate because that cheksum is the checksum of the exact thermal config (except the last 2 bytes). In [[Sherwood]] is not so easy because the cheksum includes other areas of the eeprom so is not exactly an unique identifyer of the thermal config, for that reason in the [[Sherwood]] thermal configs is indicated the CRC32 (of the 0x200 bytes area only, calculated in PC), and all the others too to standarize his "labeling" and to be able to calculate the checksums of all them in PC in a easy way
