Searching possibility to switch a fan by temp (Cerbo, BMV, MPPT, Smart Sense)

Hello, I‘m searching for a possibility to switch a smal fan for cooling down my technical storage area. I‘d like to switch on/off by temperature.

I have ...

- Cerbo GX
- BMV-712 watching 2 batteries (so additional temp sensor not possible)
- MPPT 100/20
- Battery Smart Sense Network

Hoped to use the cerbo for it. I‘m logging the battery temp with the cerbo and have a peak for about 43 degrees. So, this information is available. But how is it possible to control a fan with it. A kind of IFTTT function would be fantastic.

Thanks a lot in advance

Regards, Adam

It does appear to be currently available, It has been requested before curbo-gx-temperature-activation-of-relay

I don't know how the lithium battery low temperature charge cutoff is handled, maybe something could be possible with that.

Edit: Sorry that meant to say 'does not appear to be currently available'
