I just got my shiny new Terminus R606 from 419Mining. Having the same problem I did with the NewPacs…. It is auto-tuning down.
Currently have it set on 550MHz on voltage setting 4. It runs for a few minutes, then I hit an ASIC plateau and it goes down to sub 200. This time it went from a target of 600MHz down to 194.
Running Windows 10 and powered by 8amp barrel cord.
Tried on both the 2.0 and 3.0 USB port. Tried low boost and no boost. Tried going to voltage setting 5. Same end result.
Any ideas? According to the QRG from 419Mining, "All pods are tested to operate at 550MHz (750GH) at volt setting 4 (OXX) for 24 hours before being shipped out."
Here is the command I am using:
cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u 32v8MSnYvZGg8T2fWiHgUoBD7afrTvsJ7u.R606 -p x --gekko-r606-freq 550 --suggest-diff 128 --gekko-lowboost
And here is the log from CGMiner:
