# Fan Settings

## 1. **Changing the fan speed**

{% hint style="info" %}
If the fan speed is set to auto, the actual speed is determined by an algorithm explained [here](/mclimate-lorawan-devices/devices/mclimate-fan-coil-thermostat-fct/mclimate-fan-coil-thermostat-device-communication-protocol/fan-settings/auto-fan-d-settings.md). It's also reported in the [keepalive](/mclimate-lorawan-devices/devices/mclimate-fan-coil-thermostat-fct/mclimate-fan-coil-thermostat-device-communication-protocol/keep-alive.md) of the device.
{% endhint %}
