You need to match your firmware with your device.
Static speed 600m firmware is for the 12.93th S9 from a year and a half ago.
How old is yours? Should you be using auto frequency instead?

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one to get a dead pi from Canaan. I got 6 from them (Don't judge me, I wanted the case) 1 DOA, 1 had a bad mem-card
If its the same case the the 741 it will overheat the RPi in a warm environment so be cognizant of that. I got 54 RPis with my last 1000 order from Canaan and I had 3 bad ones out of that batch.

20 sols is such a small amount its barely considered variance, I think you are making much ado about nothing.

Anyone have any issues running 20 miners on one controller. I have an issue where a miner or two will drop out of cgminer and then occasionally pop in and out but never resume hashing unless I physically reboot the miner Not sure if this a hardware issue with the miner or a stability issue with the controller/auc. I know another user here says he can’t run the full 20 and keeps the number per controller low for stability reasons. Any seen this too and know what it is?
I have 1000 Avalon 741s running in batches of 20 with no issues. I wonder if the 8 introduced some kind of instability? Make sure you have at least a 2.5 amp power source for your RPi, underpowering them leads to AUC crashes and other issues.

So if we go by their track record they will ship these running at 16TH since that is officially 'within spec' like with the T1

I dont know anyone who has successfully recovered anything via SD card on these. It just sounds like you have a dead controller.
As as last resort you could wireshark and look for ARP packets to see if the settings went way out of line but with both lights just stuck on thats a classic sign of a dead controller.

Bitmain being first to market on some things doesnt make them a monopoly. Most of you guys hear the crap spewed on this site against bitmain and think its all true.
I have been to Bitmains production facilities and mining areas. None of what people say on this site is true because they simply havent been there.
Stop believing all the BS you hear just because people like to bash on Bitmains success.
Its so hypocritical I laugh at it daily. Nearly everyone (99.5% at minimum) is motivated by greed to mine for a profit. The only reason they hate on bitmain is they are too broke to buy the products and profit for themselves.

This is for bitcoin mining, not GPUs. Please read the forum rules and move this to the proper section.

Hidden asic boost will be killed off taking away a bitmain edge that they don’t share with the common miner.
If enough pools allow overt asic boost the big loser is bitmain. Not us.
Btw bitmain knows this and attacked the dragonmint early and hard.
Bitmain also knows this is a lost cause and rather then fight they are switching to ai coin and chips in the b3 Bytom coin as they want to be king in as many Al Gore rhythms as they can.
Where is this coming from? Covert asicboost doesnt work with segwit, so even if bitmain WAS using it they arent now. Which by the way there is NO PROOF of nor has there ever been. Bitmain is branching out and building other miners because THEY ARE A HARDWARE COMPANY. That is what they do. Why is this such a hard concept for people? If Ford only ever built the model T where would the company be now? Bitmain is forcing others to innovate or get lost in the shuffle. That is a good thing. The lack of objectivity when discussing things on this forum is disgusting.

Think you're right and it's also likely that the reseller posts are indeed scams. No Bitmain reseller would risk their relationship by doing something stupid like this.
If you read the email and everything on the Bitmain site you will notice they DO NOT have ANY official resellers. The only official way to buy their products is via the website.

The e3 is just a trojan horse hiding the true f3 eth asic on bitmain warehouses. The e3 was created to simply hide the fact the f3 exists, so eth devs would just see the e3 as "is not a threat to the network" and to send a message to eth devs that changing the algorithm will not brick the e3, meaning that was especially designed to be an amazing trojan horse. As I said before, I knew bitmain would launch something else to hide the fact the f3 exists, so eth devs would just accept the fact that "its okay to leave the e3 be" and eth devs are falling for it hehe
You constantly spout this garbage without a shred of proof behind it. Until you can prove it with FACTS you really shouldnt spread this tin foil hat garbage.

You do not need a card just for video output. The RX580 can mine and output video with no issues.

Its just a bad controller, it happens.
BTW none of the controllers come with an SD card so I dont know where that idea came from.
Also, you dont have to ship it back to China, there are multiple US repair centers now.

Sounds like you have the old Bitfury H cards. Wish I still had my RPi image I could share with you.
I know we got the software from MegaBigPower AKA Dave Carlson, which is where our H card setups came from.
Maybe someone at Gigawatt (which assimilated MegaBigPower) would have an old archive of their software setup?

Canaan also doesn't build bottom-dollar gear and sell for 400% markup whenever it's convenient. By "bottom dollar" I mean built as cheaply as possible, spec'd too high for reliable long-term use and shipped with a mediocre warranty.
What about the fact that the Avalon 6 units never worked in spec and overheated in 70f temps? They sunk my last datacenter with their defective product. They swept all those problems under the rug because they were about to be bought out in that failed deal a while back. The Avalon 841 seems to have a similar problem after they sneakily changed the specs from 40c to 30c without telling anyone. So I dont think your argument about the quality of Canaan gear is 100% accurate. I have managed thousands and thousands of Avalon miners so I am speaking from first hand experience.

Every time I have ever set a PSU on top of a miner both run hotter than before, this looks to be no different :/

An integrated power supply is a TERRIBLE idea, I hope that they reconsider.

Apparently you've fallen for some propaganda.
You can try to sound all high and mighty but you just come across as an asshole. The machine does not work as claimed out of the box. Your argument is completely meaningless. I dont care if you think its acceptable to go around individually asking every pool in the world to upgrade, that is not an acceptable answer. Nobody buys a miner expecting they have to contact every single pool they want to use it on and hope that each of those people is willing to go out of their way, for free, to modify code to make it work.

It looks like something from the medical bay of a campy sci fi show

That still doesnt excuse the fact that this is a Bitcoin Classic miner only. It cannot mine ANY other sha256d algo. They also didnt mention that until months after pre-order. After all the defensive shills talking about how great this company is, it brings me a small perverse pleasure to see all of these problems with the company popping up already. Shipping delays, hardware cancellation after a preorder, trying to force authorized distributors to sell machines that are out of spec. Man this company sure seems like they are gonna save us from the 'evil' bitmain and their as advertised on time products lmao
