Hi,
In current firmware we have fixed the software. Bith GUI and CLI show correct OFF status when fans are shut down because ambiant temp is under 25C and the switch internal components are within spec.
Remains the amber light on the front. The LED amber color will be fixed in subsequent firmware.
I would advise you upgrade to the latest FW if you can bear with the amber FAN light.

Hi LaurentMa ,
Thanks for the swift reply.
Do you know if the firmware guys will be adding the option to force the fan on?
I don't like seeing these switches at 59 degrees when a 48 port PoE switch a few U beneath it is at 31 degrees.
