Title: Post your BFL SC 60 proc/engine details here
Post by: rupy on October 29, 2013, 10:14:52 AM
We all receive "60" GH... lets see what we really got?

---

To dump these just stop your miner and:

Windows:

Download putty.

Then run it and switch the radio button from SSH to serial.

Enter the COM port that your miner is on and 115200 as Speed.

Press Open, then type ZCX and press enter.

Linux: (Untested)

echo ZCX > /dev/ttyUSB0 && cat /dev/ttyUSB0

Where /dev/ttyUSB0 should be changed to whatever you got I guess?

---

Copy the output (remove tabs if garbled) and post here.

What if I use cgminer with direct usb communication and I don't have serial port dedicated to BAS? Flow control?

Ok, seems the BFL products don't like power cycling. At least if it's mining you will break engines just by pulling the power.

Got some kind of official confirmation from support: "Some times, the number of engines can change after initialization. Power cycling a unit usually shows this, but it doesn't vary greatly from cycle to cycle."

This is like a car manufacturer building a serial design flaw; BFL should pull all of it's miners and deliver working products.

Sound familiar?

With its 1957 models already rusting out, Plymouth had to confront the rust problem in a big way. The spectre of a rusting-out unibody with no frame to hold it together was simply too scary to contemplate. A series of six chemical sprays and seven dips into chemical baths plus four coats of paint prevented rust where its damage could be worst - on all those structural inner beams. The wheel wells, exposed as they were to road salt, still proved to be subject to rust, however.

With the new singles with aluminium heatsinks you can't do this it seems.

Any other ways to see it on Linux?
