Yes, there are!

When NHC installs it defaults installation to
\Program Files\Notebook Hardware Control

Under that DIR there should be a \ACPI directory.
Look in there for files named LENOVO, specifically lenovo_mod.
Open lenovo_mod (double click, should open with notepad)
change the model name between the "" marks to the model of your TP.
SAVE

Restart NHC, ACPI settings will be available

Mine didn't install those by default but found combatible. The problem was bottom has two numbers:

1706CTO
1706W3Q

, and I was trying with CTO every time and it didn't work, but the other worked. What is the difference with these numbers btw?

CTO = custom configuration. It could mean almost any hardware combination at all. The other three are a standard model config with specific hardware listed by Lenovo.

Glad you got it working. BTW, you can add multiple models, as follows:

<Model name="1706cto" location="MAINBOARD" class="TPFancontrol" file="lenovo.cs" />
<Model name="1706w3q" location="MAINBOARD" class="TPFancontrol" file="lenovo.cs" />

Ok, thanks for the info.
