NAME
       sensors - print sensors information

SYNOPSIS
       sensors [ options ] [ chips ]
       sensors -s [ chips ]
       sensors --bus-list

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

OPTIONS
       -c, --config-file config-file
	      Specify  a  configuration	 file.	 If no file is specified, the libsensors default configuration file is used.
	      Use `-c /dev/null' to temporarily disable this default configuration file.

       -h, --help
	      Print a help text and exit.

       -s, --set
	      Evaluate all `set' statements in the configuration file and exit.	 You must be `root' to do this.	 If this pa‐
	      rameter is not specified, no `set' statement is evaluated.

       -A, --no-adapter
	      Do not show the adapter for each chip.

       -u     Raw output.  This mode is suitable for debugging and for post-processing of the output by scripts.  It is also
	      useful when writing a configuration file because it shows the raw input names which must be referenced in	 the
	      configuration file.

       -j     Json output.

       -J     New json output.	This mode is suitable for post-processing of the output by scripts.

       -v, --version
	      Print the program version and exit.

       -f, --fahrenheit
	      Print the temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit instead of Celsius.

       --bus-list
	      Generate	bus  statements suitable for using in sensors.conf.  Such bus statements are only needed if you have
	      several chips sharing the same address on different buses of the same type.  As bus numbers  are	usually	 not
	      guaranteed  to be stable over reboots, these statements let you refer to each bus by its name rather than num‐
	      bers.

       -n, --allow-no-sensors
	      Do not fail if no sensors found.	The error message will be printed in the log.

FILES
       /etc/sensors3.conf
       /etc/sensors.conf
	      The system wide configuration file.  See sensors.conf(5) for further details.
