CPU fans at 100% on S5500BC in "other" chassis

Hi,

 

I recently bought a S5500BC on ebay and its doing its job well. But the fans are allways at 100% and i would prefer a little bit more silence. I have updated my firmware (incl. BIOS) and nothing changed. I found a post about fan speeds in non-intel chassis (Found the solution to loud fans when using "other chassis" option when updating Firmware on a server board) but if i look in my BC_BMC.sdr i cannot find 100% aka 64h settings. Does anyone knows what i need to change in my config?

// Chassis Fan Control Domain 1 with profile 6,7 for Minimum

// For Other Chassis (Medium ramp)

// Fan Control Domain Number #1 (PWM0: Processor1&2 Fan)

   04                 // Count of Temperature/Control Value Pairs (04h=4)

  

   00                 // Temperature 1 0c

   33                 // Control Value 1 (Percentage) (33h = PWM 51%)

  

   14                 // Temperature 2 20c

   33                 // Control Value 2 (Percentage) (33h = PWM 51%)

  

   1E                 // Temperature 3 30c

  33                 // Control Value 3 (Percentage) (33h = PWM 51%)

  

   3C                 // Temperature 4 60c

   64                 // Control Value 4 (Percentage) (64h = PWM 100%)

Also i am not sure which entries to alter and which not. Would appreciate any help,
