Title: [WANTED] Batch 3 Avalon Troubleshooting
Post by: shbtc on August 07, 2013, 04:36:05 AM
I have sold this 4 module unit and have to deliver it this weekend. I had it mining with an old Enermax 750W PSU that came with another batch 2 that I sold a few weeks ago. I was overclocking this one to 300 and was getting 98 Gh/s from the pool. As the hashrate dropped to 20 Gh/s over the course of 2 days, I figured I'd burned out the PSU. I just bought a Corsair AX1200 and plugged it in. Now when I turn it on, the fans don't even rev up like they used to. The LED on the right is flashing green, the left is solid red. OpenWRT shows 0 Gh/s.

PAYMENT
Whoever can get this up and running in the next 48 hours can have their choice of 1 BTC or 24 hrs of mining.

are you sure you plugged the right power cables?

there is a difference between PCI-E and EPS

make no mistake and double check that.

I used 2 CPU cables and 2 PCI-E. This is what I've done on both of my previous Avalons.

Maybe differencing on the output ampere does affect

I dont know for sure, because I dont have these things. but you may check about it.

*edit: or maybe the broken PSU already "affecting" the avalon

The broken PSU is no longer a factor. I bought and installed the new Corsair, which gave me the red error light and 0 Gh/s. The corsair box was already open when I bought it, meaning it had already been returned. I returned it today, in case it was defective, and am now using an Enermax Platimax 1200.

is the problem still continuing after the new psu? I would factory reset the box to make sure that its not the sofware or the custom OS that the box runs. I also pm'd you with my skype info so that I can talk to you without waiting 10-30 mins. i have a few ideas on how to fix this.

Apparently the new Corsair AX1200 that I bought from Fry's was fried. I've replaced it and the Avalon is mining away. Thanks to all who offered help.
