We had to add a transistor to allow the processor to control the fan -- but the temperature at which the fan turns on is controlled directly by software.
It is set at about 150 degrees F, which is about 65C. The hardware is good to about 120C, so the fan comes on WAY before the temperature limits on the controller are hit.
