DESCRIPTION

15       sensors is used to show the current readings of all sensor chips.
16       sensors  -s is used to set all limits as specified in the configuration
17       file.
18       sensors --bus-list is used to generate bus statements suitable for  the
19       configuration file.

OPTIONS

23       -c config-file
24              Specify  a configuration file. If no file is specified, the lib‐
25              sensors default configuration file is used. Use  `-c  /dev/null'
26              to temporarily disable this default configuration file.
27
28       -h     Print a help text and exit.
29
30       -s     Evaluate  all  `set'  statements  in  the configuration file and
31              exit. You must be `root' to do this. If this  parameter  is  not
32              specified, no `set' statement is evaluated.
33
34       -A     Do not show the adapter for each chip.
35
36       -u     Raw output. This mode is only meant for debugging.
37
38       -v     Print the program version and exit.
39
40       -f     Print the temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit instead of Celsius.
41
42       --bus-list
43              Generate bus statements suitable for using in sensors.conf. Such
44              bus statements are only needed if you have several chips sharing
45              the  same  address  on  different buses of the same type. As bus
46              numbers are usually not guaranteed to be  stable  over  reboots,
47              these  statements  let  you refer to each bus by its name rather
48              than numbers.
