dump file can be viewed with any text editor. This may be useful for a consolidated list, or for further technical troubleshooting. This will create a text file with all the available information for the sensors (same as the values in the sensor tree). If you open the 'About' dialog (by clicking the icon in the dialog's title bar and selecting it from the menu) there is now a link to create a dump of the application's contents. This helper application has been updated from 3.0.0 to 3.0.1 to add a new feature. This did not affect numerical values, as those were properly updating previously.ģ) Added a dump option to the HWiNFOSharedMemoryViewer.exe application. There was an issue where an error condition would cause string values to report the error in the skin, but this text was not updated once the error condition was resolved without reloading the skin.

Missing: no logging in skin or Rainmeter logģ: logs to both the Rainmeter log and the skin (1+2)Ģ) Fixed an issue where errors displayed in the skin for string values were not updating once the error condition was resolved. This new parameter is ' HWiNFOLogHandler' and has the following options: You can download version 3.2 hereĪ new parameter has been added to give you control over the error reporting options introduced in v3.1. This plugin has been updated to version 3.2.

Here is an example of the updated log output: Entries of type 'Warning' indicate the issue is isolated to the specific measure, and the skin should otherwise function for measures with a good configuration. In general, log entries of type 'Error' have an issue which prevents the skin from functioning entirely (for example, HWiNFO is not running). In this case it would correlate to the top line (remote host 0 is not reachable). So for example, if one of your measures is returning -9001 and you don't exactly know what that means, simply refresh the skin and look at the log. This includes when the skin is loaded, as well as when the skin is refreshed. These entries are only written when a skin is refreshed (not in real-time). You can find this information in the Rainmeter->About dialog on the log tab. Logging has been enhanced to provide more information that is more accurate. 9101 : HWI_ERROR_INVALID_SENSOR_INSTANCE 9001 : HWI_ERROR_REMOTE_HOST_NOT_CONNECTED Selecting a remote machine will provide the id you need to provide to this parameter to query that specific machine. This application has been updated to include a dropdown of remote machines configured in HWiNFO during the previous step. Then we can specify which remote machine to connect to by running the included HWiNFOSharedMemoryViewer.exe file. The sample skin above shows 3 graphs (CPU and dual GPUs) from the local machine, as well as CPU & GPU from two other PCs on the LAN using the new remote monitoring feature.įirst, you must configure additional machines to monitor in the HWiNFO settings. If you do not provide this parameter, the skin will continue to return the values from the local machine. To do so, you will use the optional HWiNFOHostId parameter. In addition, version 3 now includes the ability to add monitoring of remote systems into your Rainmeter skins. Please read the instructions for creating measures in this post: Then replace the IDs with the matching IDs for your hardware. The IDs can be updated in the skin by editing the file using a text editor.

It is possible the values on your PC do not match the ones in the skin. If you will continue to use the included skin (or create one based on this), then you must check the measure IDs included with the skin against the IDs for your hardware.

Please Note: This included skin does not demonstrate the full capabilities of HWiNFO and this plugin. You should be presented with the following:

To install the skin, simply run the downloaded. To use this plugin, you need to ensure HWiNFO's sensors are running and 'Shared Memory Support' is enabled in the HWiNFO settings.

Updated so VC++ runtime libraries are no longer required.

Updated to the latest versions: HWiNFO 5.10, Rainmeter 3.3 and Visual Studio 2015.

Added support for remote system monitoring introduced in HWiNFO 5.0.

Therefore, if you do not have these runtime libraries already installed on your PC, v2.0 of this plugin will error. These are no longer being distributed with Rainmeter as of version 3.3. Please Note: Version 2.0 of this plugin has a dependence on the Visual C++ 2013 runtime libraries. Version 3 of the HWiNFO plug-in for Rainmeter is now available and can be downloaded from here:
