Dude the ground reference problem is not related to the board itsef so best practice is always to use one psu only or same plug(not recommended) Ok, gonna power the raspi through the 5V output of the PSU i'll use for the board... Super! that is a right way to go dude In that case you can cut red usb data wire red one +5v from pi to board itself or to the hub just in case. It is not necessary though Well if i can protect my board (and my raspi) from burnin i think i'll do this I was in a hurry to install my board so i skipped this part but my tp-link and my borad are powered from same psu no external power for tplink First thing i do is to garbage al 5V external power adapters. i am cutting the plug only (Hubs)

Hi, did you use same PSU from your PC to powered the miner or another PSU?
Hi Zich, another one. Also PC audio in/out is KO Mistake! Do not do that ..Take 12V from PC same PSU Why ? Is there a reason to use the same PSU ? What can i do if i use a raspi as computer ? Ground reference problem. If using raspi, then get 5 V supply from same PSU that supply the miner. You need to do some cut, cut, cut Just a question, how is this working with a tplink router ? Do i also have to power both with the same PSU ? Yes recommended and it working great i have nine of them to one tplink making around 410GH with carefully chosen usb hub same 700W PSU power draw per board is only 4.6AMPS at 12V overclocked

FrictionlessCoin,
Yes i think they do check their threads.
So AMT is using technobit logic boards. Is that what you are saying? NO. I said that i know about power that is all because i have technobit board. What amt are using i do not know. Ask them for that. Once again i do not know PS: I was responding to: These have shipped only in Europe right? Do you know if Technobit ships to USA?

Guy;s shipping date is approaching. I am absolutely serious that 1,2Th mass shipped miner drawing 600W at the wall is complete noncence. So i am raising my bet from 10 to 21 BTc that they can not do it. And to make it more jussy the one who dares to bet is one to three. Bet seven BTC win 21 Anyone? AMT will you dare to win easy 21 BTC or you are not gambling? You production line is at full speed to meet promised deadline. I am wandering have you heard the engineering update of the power draw? Patience We will see soon. Looking at Cointerra first release they missed the mark by 40℅. 20% higher power. 20% less hash. I would not be surprised to see amt require more power than 600w. I don't think it's fair to hold them to it on their first release. Gen 1 of most electronics need tweaking for optimization. We are looking for fast and perfect delivery which is like a crap shoot the first time. I really just hope they hit the hashing rate. If they have done Both on the 1st try.. Bravo!! We are days away from someone getting their miner from amt and reporting. 1. I am not Impatient, because i have already coincraft board in hand mining happily from technobit 2. I know exactly how much does the chip draw 3. And i want to make some quick btc but none dears to bet 4, And finally i am not AMT customer Be prepared to hit your home fuse limits especially if you are in USA that is all i can say. I wish good luck to both AMT and their customers especially in the part of their delivery promise date. It is clear like crystal that they will fail with power figures but the key point is that they keep the promise about delivery date Are you saying that technobit already delivering coincraft based boards? Yes i have mine from 4 days ago (in advance) and their batch of 30 boards have shiped alrady or at lest 10 people have tracking check their threads So i know that 8 chips making around 270 GH are drawing about 40A/12V

Hi Zefir,
I have got and build the A1 SPI driver on Rasp(Raspbian). run ./cgminer, then input pool serverdetails: URL: stratum+tcp://stratum.btcguild.com:3333 Username: xxx Passwrod: xxx
output: Failed to resolve (?wrong URL) stratum.btcguild.com:3333 Pool setup failed.
What is wrong?
Dude, I can not imagine that you ask such a question here. Any way please save people time and check your dns/IP/mask and GW of pi then do nslookup stratum.btcguild.com Server: **************** Address: 192.168.0.222 Non-authoritative answer: Name: stratum.btcguild.com Address: 198.245.63.145 Is that hard? And before you play with software make sure you are having a board to plug into Rasp(Raspbian). You have one, do you? I bet you do of course Have in mind that PI produces 0 GH alone. it is used just for communication between your mining hardware a board with coincraft chips and internet haha, I am a fresh man. I have no coincraft chips yet, but i have just got a Rasp board, so i test A1 SPI driver on it first. I think ip/mask/gw of Rasp is right, ping stratum.btcguild.com, can reply from 198.245.63.145, but cgminer always failed to resolve, i don't know what is wrong. Thanks loshia! try another pool then.... I still do not get it what exactly are you going to test without a board and chips but...it is up to you

So All question will be addressed tommorrow Today We do PACKING
Whoot! Order status has changed to "shipped"! I still don't have a power supply for them though, seems to be a power supply shortage around these parts! How is your tplink upgrade gator? Is all good?

I do not know how you do it doc Thank you! Did you ever sleep In case of problems my cell phone plays a loud air raid siren. It wakes the entire neighborhood. Seems part of the problem is still there? My miners are back to backup pool

And we're back
I do not know how you do it doc Thank you! Did you ever sleep You are dam good!

Do I need to reset the TL-MR3020 back to factory settings for it to install? If so how, do I do that? Thanks. Hey, Read the change long Use *sysupgrade.bin for openwrt preflashed router or *facory.bin for factory FW router. As i call it a virgin one Short answer no, but after you install it go to web interface cgminer configuration andfeel all blanks with default values quoted and Save+Apply

Just for your information, when technobit send their first batch of HEX16A, my board stuck on speedy office for more than 3 week because marto issue full prices invoice. Speedy demand marto to issue low prices invoices(Proforma Invoices). The 10 USD per board is my suggestion My second order HEX16C use UPS as carrier & i didn't find any invoices but marto declares the miner as SAMPLES And again no import tax Since the miner come with no case, then there is no problem declaring it as SAMPLES(which should be free) Low prices = No import TAX = Quick custom clear As I said German customs can be really tough. Recently I had a case where I had to get to the tax office and prove to them that usb miners were worth what was on the import tax statement. I could not prove it because it was rediculous low. So I had to pay important taxes plus 100+ euro fine for cheating on import tax. gkahr78, If you are a German or EU member you should not worry at all, because this is treated as domestic shipment inside EU . That might be an issue for EU to None EU shipment though

Morning fellows, My board PIC FW and heat sink and fans were upgraded yesterday. What I can tell you it rocks. Here are my results after 14+ hours nonstop mining Some things to point out: 1. My stats are not settled yet, because I am mining at 512 diif + filtering out nonces inside ASIC chips which do not meet it. The board is making 270GH stable and there is some room for overclocking. BUT I do not feel brave enough to do it and I suggest to all of you not to push it too much. We are hiiting the limits of hardware especially voltage regulators so overdriving them for a long period is not good idea at all. This is my personal opinion. I do hope that there will be precise measurement of power consumption very soon. I am using single rail psu rated 55A/12V. I think the bottom line is at lest 45A, to be on a safe side 2. Tplink+cgminer worked rock stable without an issue. My pool reject rate is 0.12% only which is golden! I am not commenting my HW error rate at all Technobit team did their job just perfect 3. What I can tell you that all of you should be able to get the 260Gh advertised at clock around 260 and voltage around 1000 mv. You have to experiment a little bit to find your sweet spot though. More updates to come loshia what are the temps being reported back? No temp sensor on the board dude. But it is getting hard to touch if not cooled right I would say up to 25 maybe 30 celsius you will be ok with stock fans an heatsink. My room temp is not more than 15 because of the winter so cooler is always better
