Luciano,

the fan controller setting can be seen here in near-realtime:

I let it autotune once by 'ka4' and left it like that.. works fine.

For photos, I would have to open the box again.. which would seriously 
disturb the temperature :) I will do internal photos next time, but you 
might guess from the outside photos, what is inside.

I used Warren's simple transistor circuit he provided in an earlier post 
to control the fan from the RS232 pin 4. As I wanted to keep the RS232 
outside interface free from additional cables, I opened the TBolt and 
wired pin 4 with a dedicated wire to the outside world.
