So i have a batch 1 S7 that ever since performing the FW update form the site wont hash seems like after a hard reboot and leaving it for a few hours it starts to hash but if I ever power it down the problem starts up again. multiple reboots and nothing the main screen is dead See screen shot


I have also tried to login via SSH with default root/root and i get access denied so I can't even poke around inside to try and review the config files

Anyone had any issues like this or can offer advice on how to get in with SSH I would appreciate your help

It is root admin, not root root. s5 started the root admin thing. s3 was root root.

Thanks I got in but still can't get the stupid thing to start hashing

you use dynamic or static address?
I use static and 8.8.8.8 dns  (Google dns)

You have a screen shot of the configuration?
Did you try the reset button? Sometimes the flash doesn't complete .

or change the network cable :-)

Its in a remote farm but last time this happened I tried a new cable that didn't work. The only thing I haven't tried yet is a hard reset using the reset switch as I am not onsite with the machine seems to be something went screwy with the FW update and its stuck in some inbetween state. All other miners are fine and have the exact same settings and until I attempted the FW update these 2 were fine

.
I have tried both and use same DNS I have 4 other miners that work fine those I haven't touched trying the new FW. I have tired re-flashing FW multiple times hard power resetting, rebooting, assigning Static IP rebooting router nothing seems to work. Usually after a few hours it start to hash this time its still not hashing after over 12 hrs

Sorry for overquoting this but connect BOTH FACTORY FANS as it was from the box!

Did all of the batch 7's ship?  Any batch 8's ship yet?  Anyone with a batch 6 OC at all (besides the person who did a hard reset and had it default to 700)?

As others have mentioned, go back and check the simple things. You will need to go onsite and hit that reset and work on this baby. You may have a cable which worked loose from vibration.
Personally, if I am 100% sure I've checked the simple things, I check them again, and again, but I am OCD about the simple things because I help people everyday and it is almost always something minor, but then you may need to swap control boards to see if you flipped off the firmware when updating. By the way, don't update firmware without a huge reason to do so, and be sure that reason is satisfied in your update package.
One final thought, if it is the control board, at least you can connect the down unit to another and run two off one board while you get a replacement.

Anyone with a batch 6 OC at all (besides the person who did a hard reset and had it default to 700)?

It works on 650 for me (speed ~4.29-4.3 TH at 1165W/wall with gold PSU, with plat will be probably ~ 1130-1140W)

I have a distinct feeling that the only difference between B6 and B8 will be B8 with a little higher upper limit of fan speeds, as B6 NEVER goes above 4320, but other batches sometimes reach 4400. I might check this by doing 80-100% manual setting and bumping to 700.

Thanks for the response.

I feel like the buy pressure is pretty weak compared to the sell pressure so I pulled the trigger and ordered another.  Which of course means bitcoin should go way, way up now so you all may want to get ready if you are considering a purchase.

8.7%, not even 9.  Better than I had hoped.

Yep, not too bad.  Could have been worse.  I'm expecting about 7.8% to 12.8% next difficulty change after batch 8's and more Avalon 6's hit the network.

I don't have one of these units...but don't they come with only a 90 day warranty? if so I too would baby any asic with that (just saying....what is the warranty if it is not 90 days and how good is the company on such..wondering?)

anyway no dog in this fight ..just not a big fan of complex asic machines scypt or sha256 with 90 day warranties (knc tried this on knc Titans ..but forgot to change the www page from one year for a month..thus stuck themselves with having to honor 1yr warranty ....them  RMA's of the 1st batch really sucked ..lots of issues still...they could a saved a couple million bucks easy if they had a 90 day warranty imho)...so again not a fan of such ...too much can go wrong.
