Title: Over 50% HW Errors Post by: G1rr on August 07, 2014, 02:23:40 PM Hello everyone,
I never really payed attention to the HW errors on my miner. But while setting up my own Mining with Raspbian I noticed that I got over 70% HW Errors. Then I switched to Minera (http://getminera.com/) yesterday I noticed that I still got over 50% HW Errors even though I use Code: --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 --rock-freq 290 My Rig: Raspberry Pi with Minera OS 2x RockMiner R-Box 4x ASICMiner Block Erupter USB CGMiner v4.5.0 Output cgminer: Code: cgminer version 4.5.0 - Started: [2014-08-07 13:12:14] and here is a screenshot of the Minera Dashboard http://devvsbugs.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/dashboard-1024x508.png It runs fine but like you can see I got many HW Errors. How cgminer is started: Code: /usr/bin/screen -dmS cgminer /var/www/minera/minera-bin/cgminer --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 --rock-freq 290 -c /var/www/minera/conf/miner_conf.json and my conf file: Code: { is there any way to fix this?

Title: Re: Over 50% HW Errors Post by: G1rr on August 07, 2014, 02:40:13 PM maybe your HW OverHeat . 44°C max so far and I don't think this is all it needs to overheat?!

Title: Re: Over 50% HW Errors Post by: G1rr on August 07, 2014, 03:42:01 PM hmm I hope it's only a display error because while monitoring the screen output on console
Code: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the HW value seems pretty low in camparison to the Accepted value Title: Re: Over 50% HW Errors Post by: fire000 on August 07, 2014, 03:44:37 PM without knowing much about the RockMiner R-Box here I am guessing the "--rock-freq 290" is some type of chip clock setting ???? If so maybe play with that setting and dropping it back....
Line of thinking the more ya OC the harder the unit works throwing more HW errors.... <<<< just thinking of antminers I know with them the more ya OC them the higher the HW are Title: Re: Over 50% HW Errors Post by: G1rr on August 07, 2014, 04:09:41 PM without knowing much about the RockMiner R-Box here I am guessing the "--rock-freq 290" is some type of chip clock setting ????

If you see any documentation anywhere recommending you use them on a modern device on the current official cgminer, the advice is outright wrong. Even the use of icarus timing is misguided. Just remove them.
