Hello sir

I'm Set up "AVALON 6" follow the example by eharsh ,  But i do not  Successful  it's on Red LED   ???

***My Psu output 12v 125A **,  I think i has the power sufficient demand for my AVALON 6 at from Sticker label pasted on the side , that requires 1050 watt

** I Set up on LAN network , The example set up on Tp-LINK router

 Thank you sir   :'(

Had the exact same issue with 3x units... try different cables or re-seating the existing cables you have especially the smaller black cable that goes from the RPie to the miner... also make sure the colors match at either end of the connector. I had one that was reversed.  Try turning the miner on first, let come up and plug in the RPie next making sure the black cable is disconnected.  Last, try to run the upgrade on the miner... that fixed one of mine even without it being recognized by cgminer.

good luck.

I tried to quote it for you but so slow on viewing, I suggest trying another image site to host them.  It's crawling where you have those.

Which image do you have on your Raspberry PI?   Let me know once you get to different site on images and I will take a look again, truly crawling on them.

Try, http://imgur.com/ it's free and the forums support it :), you don't need to make a account there unless you want to.

My guess is the unit is not getting the right power.
Or the unit is not connected to the rasp pi ------the black cable from the unit to the little stick may be bad. try switching sockets on the avalon 6

or the mining site had an issue.

I fixed your photos

the psu should have a short guard on the positive post (yellow cable side)

I have to ask are you giving the psu 240 volts?
are you sure the pcie cables are wired correctly

you could move the black cable to the other socket.

this is my  avalon I used dchp
you used static.  both look okay

the site you are mining on   44 seconds is short you could have waited a bit

Your PSU looks like a cancer ridden 2 pack-a-day smoker on his death bed. Are you sure it's still working properly?

Phil had a good question on 240, 110/120 would be a big effect as far as it not working properly on PSU.  I agree not the best looking on it.  I don't like seeing lug's open like that.

But OP do you have a PSU tester? If so test the PCIe cables and make sure they are putting out proper amount.

ahhh  

 I change the DNS, and then the Red Led turn into  yellow . and I tested use Two  PSU and swap the it  :-\

are you using a raspberry pi?

 
  I buy from this website " https://ehash.com/product/raspberry-pi-contrlloer-suite/ "

his rasp pi is fine.


@ op  put this pool in

   Pool1                              stratum+tcp://de.ckpool.org:3333

you may have a pool issue

if it mines at the above pool your pools are bad.

Of course just test for a few minutes since it is my pool.

if it mines we can try to figure out a good pool for you.

I do as you told, It show red led is the same.

Just for fun if you have a second sd card try the BlockC firmware in my first post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1257327.0 .  it is dhcp so should be easy to try out with not a ton of time.

I'm just curious what another image does if hardware still stay's the same.

I asked you to try both jacks on the avalon 6  the little cable you plugged it into the  the jack on the right.

you could have a bad jack.

that cable could be bad.

you are showing no gear connected to the rasp pi.

so your power on the psu may be too weak if the psu has real power  the cable that connects to the little adapter could be bad.

step by step

1) the avalon 6
2) uses 4 pcie cables that should have 12 volts ------  don't know if they do
3) the psu should supply 12 volts don't know if it does.

So get a meter and read if the 4 pcie cable do 12 volts or let us know you can run other gear like 2 s-5's with the gear.

So let us say you have a good psu with good cables

2 jacks in the avalon 6 either one should work  plug the cable into the left jack right now it is in the right jack.

it does not work.  maybe  you have a bad set of jacks maybe that cable is bad.

get an ohm meter test the four pins on that cable to see if every one is working.  they should show continuity on the ohm meter.

so lets say the cable is good.  the little adapter could be bad don't know. can only test with a good adapter.  I live in New Jersey, USA

I have an extra little adapter. you are not close to me.

next thing to check, the usb cable it does give power to the little adapter but the communication part of the cable could be bad.
get a new usb cable test it out.

maybe the usb jack on the rasp pi is bad does the rasp pi have a second usb jack switch the usb cable into the usb jack.

mechanically that is all that can be wrong as you are not linking to the avalon from the rasp pi.

software yeah you have a corrupted sd card ? don't know.  you can get a new card burn an image and boot then try.

lastly you use very weird  servers for the ethernet.  but that is something I don't know as you are not in USA.


to sum up
1) bad 4 pin cable ? maybe
2) bad jack to plug in 4 pin cable? maybe
3) bad little adapter with blue light? maybe
4) bad usb cable from little adapter? maybe
5) bad usb jack in the rasp pi ? maybe
6) bad sdcard in rasp pi? maybe
7) bad software on that sd card? maybe

All of the above maybe wrong -------------- I don't think so

My guess is psu has wrong power 

or the settings for the ethernet are wrong.

I checking  it's all ok
               
                *4 pin cable, 
                *jack to plug in 4 pin cable
                *little adapter with blue light
                *usb cable from little adapter
                *bad usb jack in the rasp pi

Rasp pi and SD card, i testing remove program and install  on this it's alright   

but I'm not sure the software or wrong set up software   :'(

are you in the USA?  Near New Jersey?

I could test it on my setup if you are close to me.  

I would hook it to these below

Ohh Unfortunately a lot ,if i near there it so great , But I'm in ThaiLand sir  :-\

I know why my machine is not working, Conclude  That i use to wrong firmware

anyway, THANK YOU VERY MUCH  for all your advice everyone  :)

is it working now?

Sounds like it.  OP when you say wrong firmware was it wrong Image on PI you were using?

Out of curiosity which image were you using?

Im in NJ and have been suffering from this exact issue (blinking red light) no fan activity whatsoever failure to boot etc...

Would your offer still be available?

If so I'd be happy to compensate you for your time and whatever help you might be able to provide (Central NJ BTW)

Let me know ;-)

Sorry I missed this yesterday.   I may be able to help you  send me a pm.

did you ever have it work?
