How to set the fan so it does not run until it reaches desired temperature?
I have a 160* tstat but with these settings the fan runs at start up with the engine cool.

That table isn't your issue. There are other things you need to do to properly accommodate the 160.
The Desired % setting which is listed as temperature is the one I posted Is there another table in the snipping below that would turn fan completely off when below these settings? The Desired ECT has values much higher than what I have in my % table. Do these need to be lowered/raised?
This is a 2017 automatic C7 Z06 My 2012 Z06 pretty much followed the % table.

I'll try Zones 1-6 at 195* and see what that does for me. Maybe I need 160 in those frames for my 160 tstat? Thanks Higgs!
Yea Higgs! Fan did not come on at start up. Came on in the upper 190s. Would like to see a little sooner. Cooled it down and then tried dropping the temps to 15% in that 192.2* frame but then the fan came on at start up. I'll continue to work with it but you got me headed in the right direction. Thanks!
leave desired at 165 or 170 and use the Fan % table to command when they come on. Those aren't the only settings of course, AC pressure, etc also can affect it.
When I run my tests I don't run the AC. I don't think it should have any fan control when not on. I wonder too what controls the fan off? Have never seen that command even on previous cars.
Thanks to all for your help! In summary, I need to set the Fan % Table, Desired Temp, Desired ECT Table and Mech Thermostat settings?
Also, I am using the base HP Tuners program, not the 2 Bar. Is this OK for the 2016 Z06?
Thanks again for your great help!

What % Fan settings are you using?
Base program and can adjust the axis, this isn’t gen 4 so no need to upgrade OS (their isn’t one anyways)
