Hi, sorry to disturb you again, is necessary to recompile CGMiner to pass voltage controls?

Cheers W_M
from the code it looks like you need to if you look in the dash_init() in driver_btm_DASH.c the voltage with the stock FW is never set.
listed out the changes now for you. Cheesy
its literally just custom voltage and slowing the fans so far

I have not tried this your FW, could your FW reboot if there is a "xxxx" error on the board? or MH / S (RT) reduced? If so, then too good.
If you develop it well, even if you charge a fee (just get one, I'm willing to support it). Do not like Blissz, charge life d3, I hate it
haven't implemented this yet maybe some time soon

I am moving to San Diego  so my development may be limited in the near future

Do it allow to change the original fans?

Cause I tried change them (Noctua nf-f12) and the machine didn't start at all  :-(

I didnt like of the Blizz one that it disconnect from the pool i'm minning to make the dev job, and that's is heavy penaltied there.

Thanks.
Yes you can set the fan slope by increasing or decreasing the max fan temp and min fan temp
Edit I missed this as well sorry I'm at work and reading fast.
I'll add support for 0 rpm fans in the next release
Hi, is possible to pass the voltage settings using ssh commands instead of using web interface?

Cheers W_M
Kinda if you modify the file /config/cgminer.conf then restart cgminer you should be good
For the voltage can I do it for individual board with tons of hw? Or the voltage setting is for all 3 board?
Try all permutations of frequency and voltage

Edit I misread this. Yes I'm working on individual board voltage I just need some modivation to finish. No eta yet

okay rebuilt FW

now with more voltage options
fan control options as well
updated some parts of cgminer to 4.10

still may be beta ive been testing this release for a few mins. but im about to go drink so im done working on this for the day.
consider this release very unstable

EDIT:

and wow its very unstable

Edit 2

much more stable

Sounds like nice work here guys without dev fees.
I'm looking you about cgminer 4.10.x soon
keep it up, it's funny

check out my GitHub I just attempted to rebase to 4.10
I still need to cherry pick some code that went missing from the rebase though.
feel free to submit a PR if anyone has some code they want added.

what Linux you use?
can you update cgminer to 4.10 version?

I run arch linux
Ill look into updating to 4.10

Cheesy thx d4nntheman

Could you tell me how to make it with firmware?

tar xvf to extract the tar
then use 7z to extract the .SD file
you should get a .cpio file use
Code:
cpio -idv < /tmp/object.cpio
to extract the cpio file
make sure you are root when you extract the cpio file

once its extracted you can replace any files in the firmware like cgminer the web pages ect.

to build the firmware
Code:
find . | cpio -o -H newc > ../Angstrom-antminer_m-eglibc-ipk-v2013.06-beaglebone.rootfs.cpio
cd ..
mkimage -n 'Angstrom-antminer_m-eglibc-ipk-v' -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -d Angstrom-antminer_m-eglibc-ipk-v2013.06-beaglebone.rootfs.cpio ../initramfs.bin.SD
cd ..
tar czvf Antminer-D3-myversion.tar.gz initramfs.bin.SD runme.sh am335x-boneblack-bitmainer.dtb
make sure the first command is as root as well

Ultimately I have been testing a firmware replacement for the Antminer D3.
broke my head. Sad
pls, how to compile?

I success cross compile my HelloWorld.c under windows10 for BBB (with arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc.exe (Linaro GCC 7.2-2017.11) 7.2.1 20171011), but I cant compile cgminer prj with make, autoconfig, etc.
Pls, give advice where to go..
I need cut off fan check from cgminer, because I use TD-500/160 fan with 'NE555 fake-fan", I wanna phisicaly remove fake-fan with patching cgminer as well.

ps: I'm not english speaking, sorry for mistakes.

I use Linux for development so i cant help much with windows

but I configure like so
Code:
CC=/home/path/to/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc CCLD=/home/path/to/arm-linux-gnueabihf-ld CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall -march=armv7" ./configure --enable-bitmain-D1 --disable-libcurl --host armv7
then make
and you shoud be good

Hello everyone 1st post so I know I'm not trusted quite yet.

Ultimately I have been testing a firmware replacement for the Antminer D3.
I think I got the basics of a usable firmware built.
I have softened the fans and added voltage control so far.
Unfortunately I do not have a kilowatt meter to test the actual power consumption of the D3.

So I am seeking testers for my firmware to test and get some reports back on the power consumption vs the original FW.
particularity in the 400-500MH and 50-200 MV ranges.

It seems to be running at 4xxMH/50MV pretty well for my miner but again I need empirical data to suggest that.

I know blissd has a great firmware already so this may seem a little redundant. so I'm not sure if anyone will even be interested in mine.

Here is the source code of cgminer.

https://github.com/d4nntheman/cgminer-dash

I still have to upload the actual firmware with changes to GitHub but that can easily be extracted and read.

Here is the complete firmware

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wsuyHwKJvszxSsdgBkfo8MofRqMRkVEL/view?usp=sharing


also a standard I am not responsible for anything this miner causes to hardware, you, feelings, ect...


Changes
Enabled changing voltage to the board via web interface
slowed the speed of the fan speed increase for more quite fans.

Eventually ill add the ability to change the fan speeds limits MAX_FAN_TEMP and MIN_FAN_TEMP via the web interface

more to come

Update:

added more voltage options
added fan speed adjustment I use 60 for the min fan speed temp and 80 for the fan max speed temp at 412/55
cherry picked some 4.10 cgminer updates
