I am having a strange issue.

I am unable to adjust the clockspeed on my miner if I set it to anything other than 800 it fails to hash anything and stops responding
here are my settings
bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://poolurl.com:4224 -u bla.user -p password --no-longpoll -S MLD:\\.\COM5 --set MLD:clock=800 --verbose

This seems to be the only setting that works, If I set it higher, or lower it fails to respond. 800 is not even in your list of preset clock speeds. I've adjusted the power, lowered it, raised it, not difference. It is hashing at about 3.4Mh/s with HW:251/.20% in the last 21hrs.

What do you mean it fails to respond? At 3.4mh your defaulting to stock speed of 600mhz. Sounds like your not editing the clock speed correctly?

Oh boy.  I seem to be having trouble with the small heatsinks.  The tape is splitting when I try to pull off the protective layer.

Any tips? 

Any recommendations for replacement tape or heatsinks?



umm why are you removing the heatsinks?

He got them delivered in pieces.  you need to peel the 2 sided tape to stick the heatsink on

ahh completely mis-read that. Yea, peeling off the protective layer should be super easy. I just peel them off with my fingernail.

Okay forum helpers. shutefight has present hatred to share here with miners community. Bitmain is kind of devil spirit to drink blood of women and babies. I make miner loud with new plug in mining farm. Get so hot in chicken coup I cant sleep there. I goes out to barn and while making sleep chicken coup goes on fire!!!! it cant be gone away so is just ashes now!! No chickens. no miner. no chicken coup. now wife has hate on me to leave me and take babies!!!!  Bitmain then sucks more blood. sells more miners for $900!!!! Never shutefight have this big evil and hate to a person in life. I peaceful man but should have army to have war to bitmain. Howthis terrible hate enemy of man be alive??!!!?Huh!!!!!!!!!

Raise your chickun army and go raid bitmain please. Chickun feathers in their mines will reek havoc.

Hello,


  I have 5 MLDs mining at about 23MH total, so I am doing fine...  They are setup on a high powered usb hub connected to my laptop.  I setup the BFGminer on my Rasperry Pi (as I want to have that be my permanent solution), but after about 5 or so minutes of the MLDs being connected, the hashrate drops dramatically...  to around 17MH/sec.  Anyone experience anything like this?  It happens very consistently ...  when I connect back to my laptop, works fine for days straight...


thanks


Try lowering the frequency on the sticks that are slowing down, or increase their core/mem voltage. Next drive release will have additional checks for slow sticks that will be restarted as well (currently it only checks if a stick has stopped hashing).
1166  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: My first Miner and I'm stuck can't get BFGMiner to work... Help please on: January 28, 2018, 02:58:54 PM
I just got my first miner today and I have spent last few hours with NO RESULTS I got a Virus warning from AVG when I opened BFGMINER from this thread a Malware Gen it says I attached s screen capture...
below is my batch file and I keep getting host unresolved error even when I run the test bat that came with the program the Start_Moonlander2 gives same host unresolved. I cut and paste my pool address and bat file was created by their config generator on their site so I don't see why I get these errors here is my info:
user is rwg4th miner is Mack and his password is jingle all in the bat file below... where am I going wrong? and is that really a virus or is it false positive? I can't attach image it seems but I'll upload it somewhere if you want or just scan bfgminer with AVG and you will see its got a Win64 malware gen virus



bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://stratum.aikapool.com:7915 -u rwg4th.Mack -p jingle

and again I tried to mine NYC Coin which is also a scrypt and I mine there using CPU already so I know this address is good but still I get "Unresolved host" error

bfgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://eu1.altminer.net:3433 -u RQkUXUFfDHR9u8wxG9vRjwyhq8YvzmuXQT -p c=NYC

where username is wallet address and password is NYC for new york coin this works fine in CPUMiner with same address so unresolved doesn't make sense maybe the card is defective? the driver loaded ok and its shown in printers and devices with no exclamation mark looks ok there can't find where it went in device manager I saw it when drivers weren't all in yet and after I updated drivers it disappeared and I opened all groups but didn't see it anywhere (which group should it be in?)

Sounds like your antivirus/firewall software is blocking internet access to bfgminer. Check your software and make sure access is enabled for bfgminer.

Anyone try Thermal Grizzly on the moonlander 2?

https://www.amazon.com/Thermal-Grizzly-Kryonaut-Grease-Paste/dp/B011F7W3LU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1517072281&sr=1-1&keywords=thermal+grizzly+kryonaut

I'm wondering is 1gram will be enough for 4 moonlanders?  My order for AsicPuppy should be arriving soon, and I want to make sure I have enough on hand.



If your putting on thermal material its only to fill in the via holes, please check the assembly instructions...that is way more than enough. Don't put a layer on there like you would with a CPU otherwise the heatsink wont stick and it will fall off and you'll most likely be left with a fried miner.
1168  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: January 27, 2018, 05:23:57 PM

Anyone from Batch 2 receive yours yet?

My order from HolyBitcoin should be here today or Monday according to tracking. My order from AsicPuppy has a tracking number but there hasn't been any update on tracking as of yet.

I expect to have all my orders in by Wednesday if all goes well.

 

Please keep order related stuff in the order thread linked in OP.

@sidehack been getting a bunch of requests to have my Moonlanders work along side your compaqs, and trying to figure out which one of our drivers is causing the issue. Im guessing one of the drivers is blasting the other com port with data that is putting one of the ASICs in an unrecoverable state.

Can I run 2 A3's on a 10-30R 30A 125/250V outlet ?. We use this for dryers, but thought of using this to mine as this is the only 220v that I can find in my home ? However I understand this is old setup, will it work fine with continuous load. Thanks. 

I'm running 2 A3 and a L3+ on a 30A 240V circuit. Consumption is around 13A for all 3 devices. I could still do another 2 A3 and another L3+.



Awesome, Then I will go get an adapter Smiley. I also have a S9 and L3+, I will hook that up as well into this outlet. Thanks.

a 30A 240v circuit should be derated to 26A continuous load to be safe, so you have a total power draw of ~6.2kw on that circuit...thats good for like 4 A3's or 6 L3+

Does anybody know if this supports Scrypt-N coins?

No this is solely a scrypt based miner. It can mine coins like Litecoin, Dogecoin, Verge, Gamecredits, digibyte etc.

Well I finally got my ball bearing fans in for the stock replacements.

They work well but they are extremely loud compared to the stock sleeve fan.

They are the same type/brand as the stock fan, just ball bearing, direct replacement.

You probably bought one that is really high RPM...these fans can go up to 15k RPM. You only need about 7-10k RPM to properly cool these. Stock fans run around 9-11k.

Yeah I got the 10k ones, couldn't find lower.

I tried a 15k and those were seriously loud.

On a side note, I have zero explanation as to why -- I threw the Asic I thought that was dead on a different hub after not using it for a few days and its been working for like a week now. I'm now wondering if the 100% HW error and extremely low hashrate rate was being caused by something else, perhaps the port on the hub I was using.

Yea who knows. Thats the issue with cheap hubs that are not designed for high current draw from USB miners. The sticks themselves are build like tanks, so unless you do something seriously stupid the root cause of a problem will most likely be power/hub related.
1173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [NEW] Bitmain Announces Antminer A3 on: January 26, 2018, 03:53:04 PM
To those who are afraid their temperature is too high. My third chain is running up to 96 degrees since 48 hours, no issue on the hashrate so far.
Not quite sure if 100% compareable but in an old thread there was a discussion about the S9 and the feedback from people with deep knowledge about chiptemperature was that everything under 100°C is fine.

Yea, and by next week you'll have a dead board. 96c for ASICs are WAY to high. Anything over 80-90c will seriously reduce the lifetime.

Also remember that bitmain has a temp diode on a SINGLE chip in that string. If that one chip is reporting 96c, you can definitely expect a variance of +/- 20c over all the chips. All it takes is one chip to overheat and blow the whole board/chain.
1174  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [NEW] Bitmain Announces Antminer A3 on: January 25, 2018, 11:47:00 PM
Wow, Over 2200 new A3's went online in the past 24 hours !
Network went up from 500TH's 4 days ago to 2700THs..

difficulty is at 2.3T

Your looking at pool hashrate...total network hashrate is up to 3600 TH and its reaching parabolic growth right now lol. Looks like its going way over 10 Petahash.

1175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Investing in SIAcoin? What YOU NEED to KNOW + Antminer A3 / Obelisk Tech SC1 on: January 25, 2018, 03:50:38 PM
So what would happen to Sia (price wise) after these Obelikses and A3`s hit the mining pools? The price would go down, logically, right? If those numbers are correct one unit would mine 300k sia monthly  Shocked

No logically that makes zero sense. The number of Sia's mined before A3's hit the market is exactly the same as after they hit the Market. Only thing that is happening now is that those same number of sia coins produced in a day are being shifted from GPU owners to ASIC owners.

I believe 3 phase 220 is the most efficient form of power- I believe its best for mining.


Umm no...tell your electrician you want 1 phase 220v. 3 phase is completely different and not compatable with 220v psu.

There is no 220v in people's homes. The electrician will probably look at him like he has 4 heads.

It's 240v split-phase. 2 hots + 1 ground from a 2 pole breaker (and grounding bar). Each hot is 120V 180 degrees out of phase. When one hot is +120v the other hot is -120, the difference is 240v.


Exactly, and if you do not have empty space in your breaker box to add tandem breakers for 240 you cannot run it. Very likely you wont, which would mean you need to "upgrade your box capacity" so the electrician can install those tandem (2 hots ) breakers to create a 240 line. Whole new breaker box, breakers, wiring and receptacles.

Or you can just DYI and run some 12 gauge wire to some existing rarely used breakers that are on different bus bars Wink

Hello,


  Where can I go to if I need technical support for a ML that is possibly malfunctioning?


thanks
George

Your in the right place, what is the issue your having?
1178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread on: January 25, 2018, 02:20:04 PM
... I will start up bfg, they all will connect and hash, after about 2-4 minutes it will say Pool 0 interrupted and they will stop hashing.
... what could the issue be? im using bfg for moonlander 5.4.2.
anyone have any thoughts/ideas?
Network connection. There are a lot of google hits on 'pool 0 interrupted' (not related specifically to MLD or BFGMiner).

so you are saying it has to do with my internet connection?

Yes those errors are either related with a pool issue or network issue.

I got my popcorn ready..this is going to be fun to watch over the next few days.  Cool



Currently about 100 A3's being turned on per hour...looks like a big farm in china is coming online.

Hash will be over 10EH by end of the month.
