Title: Antminer S7 startup and reboot issues
Post by: pjsallday1 on February 21, 2018, 10:41:35 AM
I would appreciate any help anyone could provide. I have a set of S7's and they were working fine last week. I had to power them down because it was raining and now when I power them up they all have the same issue. They boot up fine (fans power up, no beep codes, web interface) and when you go to the status page it is empty. Strange. No ASIC info, fan, temp anything just an outline of the status page. Here is the screenshot https://drive.google.com/file/d/1M-IPRYsLVSc9Dr5CQkZboG3iVXu-Nrvi/view?usp=sharing I pasted the logs and the link is here https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CYZXRy3HGimOqCLiwhEWAyIEN_P35heM/view?usp=sharing (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CYZXRy3HGimOqCLiwhEWAyIEN_P35heM/view?usp=sharing). Any help would be appreciated.

The miner status page being empty just means that cgminer is not running yet. Are those the logs from one bootup or multiple? It looks like your controller is soft resetting itself

Can you point me in the direction of what to do next please? I have performed a factory reset with the front button, but the darn thing had the same issue after 5 minutes.

How long did you let them run?  This could be a result of a few things.  You could be impatient and haven't given them the possible 15 minutes they need to get restarted and connected to a pool.  You could have entered your pool information wrong so it is stuck in a soft resetting loop. Your network could be having an issue and the miners aren't getting online.

So what I would do is connect something to one of those ethernet cables and confirm the internet is working.  Triple check your pool information to make sure it is correct.  Then reset them and go have lunch.  Come back in a half hour and check on them.
