Product Description:

Temperature Monitor is an application to read out all accessible temperature sensors in Macintosh computers. The program can display and visualize the values measured by Mac OS X in a large variety of fashions. Among others, the following operations are supported:

  • display in a default window
  • output in a screen display in front or in the background of the screen
  • tabular display in an overview window
  • display in the menu-bar
  • display in the Dock icon
  • graphical display of short-term and long-term history curves in an unlimited number of windows
  • speech output
  • display of minimum and maximum values
  • export to text or CSV files

Moreover, the application can display additional technical information about your computer. Among other information this includes processor type, processor and bus frequencies, and manufacturing information.

The application can read out the data only if your computer is equipped with the necessary sensors, and if Mac OS X can access them without needing third-party device drivers. Starting in summer 2002, Apple has begun to massively drive forward the use of monitoring probes in the PowerMac series, the Xserve series, and in portable computers. Some models are equipped with 38 and more sensors.

Temperature Monitor tries to detect all sensors on as many Macintosh computer types as possible. However, a prediction which sensors are available in which models is not possible, because Apple very often releases "silent product updates", where the hardware equipments of some models are changed but the names are not. The particular graphics card, hard disk configuration and operating system version is also important.

What's new in this version:

  • Added full support for the new Mac Pro series (March 2009). This includes support for processors using Intel Core i7 technology and simultaneous multi-threading.
  • The detail information windows for G5 processors and x86 processors have been modified to begin numbering of objects with 1 instead of 0.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.5 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.5 PPC
  • Mac OS X 10.4 Intel
  • Mac OS X 10.4 PPC
  • Mac OS X 10.3.9
