Title: Antminer s3 - what does "-" mean in ASIC STATUS section?
Post by: 52edcs10ma on August 26, 2014, 12:28:26 PM
Hello

Can you help? What does "-" (minus) in ASIC STATUS section mean? I believe that it must be something bad as the miner is mining slower than expected. This just happened to my ANTMINER S3.

Here is screen shot:

A minus means that a chip is not working. Hence your drop in hashrate. Try restarting it and see if it comes back up.

Yes, it is ok after restart. Just asked because never seen it before. Also manual says only about "o" and "x" so I was surprised to see "-"
