I am considering selling my Terraminer.  I bought it 6 months ago and while it worked OK for 4 months, I had a lighting strike in July that took out the Beagleboard.  I have it hooked up to a PC with the USB cables, but my hashing rate ranges from 300G - 1,100G.  Mainly it hovers around 500G - 600G.  I am going to slowly phase out of mining and want to know if anyone here has interest in purchasing my Terraminer.  Feel free to send me a private message if you are with a reasonable offer.

I can post pictures for anyone interested.

Thanks,

John

Both of my CTA's are running extremely hot, 85 - 115 C and I am experiencing terrible hash rate.  Low of 200G to a high of 1.2T.

So, it seems like some thermal paste may help address the issue.

The question I have is which type is better.....

- Liquid Pro

OR

- IC Diamond

Seems like some folks have had issues with Liquid Pro due to the conductive nature of it - but there seems to be several documented positive results.

What about IC Diamond?

Should I try IC Diamond first to be safe?

Suggestions.....

Hi,

I've had 2 of my S3's now stuck in China customs for 4 days.....?!?!  Has anyone else experienced this long of a delay?  Anything I can do to move it along?

Thanks.

Yes, I did this last week.  Make sure you get version 4.3.4 or earlier of cgminer.  Later versions have a checksum error. 

Also, you need to install the WinUSB driver for the goldstrike boards.  See a prior post in this thread about it. 

Yep, a lightning strike took out my cable modem, router, Terraminer beaglebone, one of my S1's and all of the beaglebones on my S3's.

It was the beaglebone. Replaced all 3 IO boards and back up and running.

I am finally back up and running!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was the beaglebone on all 3 S2's.  I ordered new boards from Bitmain and installed them today and problem solved.

I guess the moral to the story is that the beaglebone's are very susceptible to lightning strike via ethernet.  This also was the problem with my Terraminer.

Just happy to be back up and running instead of looking at all the hardware sitting idle.

Thanks to everyone here who helped!

Thanks! Appreciate all the help.

Think I got it.  Needed version 4.3.4.

Will let it run for a bit and see what I get.

Yes! I think that might have done it....thanks!

My beaglebone shorted out on me so I am trying a method to get my Terraminer back up.

Making some progress with the Terraminer. I hooked up both boards directly to my PC, installed WinUSB, and then started up version 4.3.5 using the --ps-load 80 parameter since I used to run it at power step 8.

Cgminer recognizes the boards and they get an initial hash rate of about 200g for a second on each board and the over about a minute it goes down to 0.

I get a constant output of checksum bad for each board.

The miner registers on my pool for about 2 minutes and then nothing

The fans spin up like they do when the miner gets ready to hash and then spin right back down.

Is there a parameter I am missing?

Any suggestions?

I don't think there is a way to remotely log into an S1. I have Teamviewer set up on a PC Connected to my network and I log into that to check the status on my S1's. It's free for residential use.

I am having issues with my beaglebone for the terraminer.  Are you saying that I can plug each board into a PC with a USB cable and then run cgminer on my PC to get it working again?  If so, that would be an easier solution than trying to replace the beaglebone.

Has anyone here replace the Beaglebone in their Terraminer? Mine is dead and I just purchased a new one, but not completely sure how to load the Cointerra firmware onto it.  I was told I need to point the boot loader at the firmware files and have been doing some research but thought any experience or suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks.

Tried all those and more....even reflashed the SD card.  Since I can't connect to the S2 with any method - and no lights flash on the ethernet port - I am thinking that's the issue.

I did receive confirmation from Bitmain this morning that they received my payment and are shipping the replacement boards.  I should know within a week or so if this was the problem. 

I appreciate all the help and suggestions from the community!

Will report back if this fixed the problem.

How long did it take for them to confirm your payment and ship the board(s)?

Were you having a similar problem with the Ethernet port?

Curious to see if this issue has occurred before......
