Hi I have a S7 batch 6  and its giving me a lot of grief every thing works like it should but then it starts mining oddly, ie  random, no hardware errors .02%  have power monitors on them so its not power, I was wondering if the firmware might need to be updated and what exactly is the correct firmware? I want to be sure before i do anything. in the bitmain site there are several updates but which is for the batch 6.  I have put new fans on, the voltage, and oc is stock.  checked every thing?  any ideas.

thanks

batch 6 would be 4.05TH/s model and the newest firmware is this

https://bitmaintech.com/files/download/SD-S7-20151211-600.tar.gz


Before apply the firmware update, please go to these pages and take screenshots for the notes.  So if something goes wrong, you know what value to put it back

-Miner Status Page (Pool info, Chip count and Frequency info)
-Network (DHCP or STATIC IP you use)

Ahhh great, thank you for your help, I have not had to update the firmware but it seems this one I have no choice,  Is there anything else I need to watch for, I have read alot of people having trouble updating the S7.   I have not had any trouble updating the firmware on the  S3, or the S5's

If you have a good network connection and stable power you shouldn't have any issues updating the firmware. If you upload the firmware file to the S7 without it getting corrupted and the S7 stays powered while its installing the files you likely won't experience any issues, and if you do a factory reset will usually fix it, but just like updating your phone don't power it off or anything like that while its updating or you could brick it.
