Antminer D3 Blissz firmware (10/12 v1.12 update)

[martyshmoo]

Was the beta v2.02 not meant to run for any length of time?  I ran it for ~10 hours and for some reason my Chain 3 is much worse now in terms of HW failures.  I set it on the lowest voltage and before I ran the beta (but ran many different Blissz firmware updates before that) it was fine around 450.  Now it can't get above 419 without multiple HW failures per minute.  Anyone else experience this?

I'd like to add that I've been very happy with what Blissz has been able to do thus far, so thank you!

Yep, that's my problem too.

I have a new highly sensitive chain that WAS my best chain, now is my worst.

I am afraid the aggressive freq/voltage search during autotune screwed my machine/chain up.

No answers? I cannot mine at speeds higher than 19 now, I was at 20.9 before.

It looks like they auto tuned themselves right out of being tuned...

PLEEEAAAH!!!

Pfaaaa!


M,

Can I get an answer to one question.

Should I ignore HW errors when temps are ok?


Info: Newly rebooted New version of 10/12. Set everything as described.

This goes on at a pace of 118 every 20 minutes or so.

Chain#   ASIC#   Frequency   MH/S(RT)   HW   Temp(PCB)   Temp(Chip)   ASIC status
1                   60               494    6026.14    0            54                     71
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooo
2                   60               438    5400.08    118         47                     61
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooo
3                   60               494    6154.90    0             57                     72

When I installed Beta, did a test at lowest, did a test at 9V sent you the stuff.

I tried 12 or 13V with autotune and immediately saw a temp of 256 on the Chain 2. Chip temp was fine....(I mean like 79).

I reverted back to old 12 /10 that I had. Now chain 2 overreacts to temps. I just disregard as long as no asic fail and no shown temperatures to worry about. But watching it Hurts.

Is there a way change temp offset for chain two only to like -13? It's at -3 now, just like the other two.

Thanks for your answers in advance, sorry to bother you.

@Blissz: If your pools go down (unlikely, but possible), and the 2 hour timer triggers the devminer switch for the 1m50s and finds that both of the dev pools are dead... what happens? Does cgminer restart? If so, then after 5 minutes, it attempts to connect to dev pools again, finds them dead, and cgminer restarts... ad nausium until the dev pools come back? This is a pretty important thing to me as I rent out my machines and want high reliability for my renters and don't want to screw you out of your much deserved devfee.

Just block it in your firewall and never mine the dev pool duh


Or download awesome miner. Have a trigger for everytime it changes to dev pool to then change pool back to main pool. Done

Not the problem, or an answer.

WARNING THIS FIRMWARE MIGHT VOID THE WARRANTY ON YOUR MINER

v1.12 :: 10/12 :: RECOMMENDED UPDATE


Download:
https://mega.nz/#!ylJX0LCQ!8JWryI0jDhgMvPdH2mrOvybkXCtrpYtQpxu0akdxU1s


Upgrade instructions:

• Recommended, at your current firmware, set the miner frequency at 400mhz and set your fan speed manual at 25% before flashing.
• Download the custom firmware. (don't unpack it)
• Flash by going to "System" -> "Upgrade" -> "Flash new firmware image" and select the custom firmware.
• After flashing, check the advanced settings page and start at the lowest voltage setting and 400mhz. From there increase your frequency to see how high you can go at the lowest voltage setting.
• Start tweaking some more. See the profile suggestions below.

Changes 10/12:
- Improved awesome miner / other mining managers compatibility (setting the priority was not working)
- fix kernel log window height (saves you double scrolling...)
- added permanent antbleed fix (prevent remote control of your miner by bitmain ) -> for details see http://www.antbleed.com/

thank in advance to blissz to help D3 community for this firmware..
will trying 1 D3 first.. to find the right setting for my D3.. and willl setting all my D3 if good to to with this firmware

[sanitariu]

I will try too but i need only one feature:
If fan stops for some reason hardware/software and temperature goes over 100 degrees..
i want cgminer process killed.
I do not want any reboots or cgminer restarts just full stop.
This is the only reason which stops me from using this version.

[mikespax]

If I were to reduce the frequency to the lowest value, along with the lowest voltage, would the power consumption continue to drop? I currently get around 730w, just wondering if possible to go lower.

Well, due to the overwhelming responses and help I get, this is what I did, Ignore them....

Chain#   ASIC#   Frequency   MH/S(RT)       HW   Temp(PCB)   Temp(Chip)   ASIC status
1                 60                  556    6896.92        0          53                    73
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooo
2                 60                  537    6623.69       278        50                    68
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooo
3                 60                  531    6611.15        0           56                    73

Works fine for hours now.

Still need a fix, if there is a possibility for one.

Thanks, again, in advance, kindly, for any response, or help provided to me.

If I were to reduce the frequency to the lowest value, along with the lowest voltage, would the power consumption continue to drop? I currently get around 730w, just wondering if possible to go lower.

yes it will go down with the frequency in quite a linear curve. So let's say 400Mhz = 730Watt at the lowest voltage, then 200Mhz would be ~365Watt at the lowest voltage for example.

[mikensen]

Currently running on 400M voltage 4 with no errors and under 60c. Thank you blissz.

It will be in, in the next version

How much time does it spend in the dev pool every 2 hours?

I'm working with Awesome Miner to switch between pools and coins. Unfortunately
the D3 only allows three pools to be preconfigured, and AM can only switch between these three.

Blissz , could you please extend the number of preconfigured pools to let's say 10 ? This would make profitability and
usability much better.

And thank you for your work so far. For me, I don't care if your fee cut's my income on 1 or 5% ,
everybody here is free to decide to use it or not, I don't understand why people complain.
For me the advantages are worth much more than 5%.

Please focus on the features, the better your fw gets, the less the whine will be.

[majorlee]

just wondering if there is firmware like this for the S9?

really good stuff here, thanks, not so much an expensive hair driers now i found you...

u get a % correct?

There might be, you'd have to check the Bitcoin Hardware section for that since this is an AltCoin miner.
His cut is 1.5% (or 1.8%?) mining time to his pools every 2 hours (1m50s/2h)

In Awesome Miner you can add more then the 3 pools to the Miner.
use add pool, but it works only when you have API access from Awesomeminer

Hi @blissz... hi folks...

What is maximun Hr/s that i can expect at lowest power consumpion (750/800w) with latest blissz release?

[Knightslugger]

Hi @blissz... hi folks...

What is maximun Hr/s that i can expect at lowest power consumpion (750/800w) with latest blissz release?

at 400MHz @lowest voltage i was averaging something like 15GH/s. wasn't happy with all the HWs i was getting so i abandoned that pretty quickly.
at 450MHz @ voltage step 8 i'm getting 16.4GH/s (i have not checked wattage yet).
at 525MHz @ voltage step 13 was very close to stock, 19.3GH/s at 1100W.
