SYNOPSIS

  require 5.003;
  use Win32::MBM_sensors qw( :STAT 0.19 );
  my %Sensors = &MBM_sensors::get;

Key/Value pairs in resulting hash:

  $Sensors{error}            char if successful, undef; if failure, reason.

  $Sensors{version}          num  MBM version number
  $Sensors{timestart}        char Date/time of MBM startup
  $Sensors{timecurrent}      char Date/time of last update of all sensors
  $Sensors{path}             char Working path for MBM

  $Sensors{temperature}           Array of sensor hashes
  $Sensors{voltage}               Array of sensor hashes
  $Sensors{fan}                   Array of sensor hashes
  $Sensors{MHZ}                   Array of sensor hashes
  $Sensors{CPUbusy}               Array of sensor hashes

Each sensor hash, regardless of type, is:

  $Sensor{name}              char Name of sensor
  $Sensor{current}           num  Most recent reading, degrees celsius for Temp, RPM for fan, etc.
  $Sensor{low}               num  Minimum reading since MBM startup
  $Sensor{high}              num  Maximum reading since MBM startup
  $Sensor{count}             num  Number of times read since MBM startup
  $Sensor{total}             num  Sum of all readings since MBM startup
  $Sensor{alarm1}            num  Low alarm point for MBM action
  $Sensor{alarm2}            num  High alarm point for MBM action

Example of selecting the first temperature sensor as a complete hash:

  %Sensor = $Sensors{temperature}[1];
  print "Temp sensor 1 now $Sensor{current}";

Example of selecting the current reading of the second temperature sensor:

  print "Temp sensor 2 now $Sensors{temperature}[2]{current}";

Except for items indicated as Experimental, I do not expect functional changes which are not fully backwards compatible.

DESCRIPTION

This module provides an interface to Mother Board Mmonitor sensors. MBM monitors Temperature, Voltage, Fans, etc. via sensors included in many motherboards. MBM runs on MS Windows. MBM available at https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/motherboard_monitor.html. MBM must be installed and correctly configured.
