Baikal X10 Multialgo Miner (Non-official Support Thread)

You can add a new option and write "baikal-fan" and put a value for fan. EG: 50

I received the second lot and I already had the baikal-fan option which was very noisy at 100 for now I set at 30
but I'm happy if it is possible to have the speed of the automatic fan
to keep a setpoint temperature but I do not know if this is possible

The automatic fan speed is not possible. You have to set it manually.
You can use 30 for myriad-groestl and skein. You can use 50 for quark and qubit.

Igotek,

what are realiable temps for chips and pi mining quark/qubit?

Thanks.

Try to keep temps at 40 c and under it. But there is no problem if it is 60

Thanks. My pi temperature is arround 46 - 50 C, but i think it is good temperature, right?

Any new batch comin up for order any time soon?

I have a hashrate finding regarding the X10.

Tested out mining on NiceHash QUARK the last couple of days.

My miner is in perfect condition, but typically my Baikal-Fan is set to 50. With this setting, I was only getting accepted speeds on NiceHash ranging from 5000-8000 for the entire 24 hours.

Once I set the fan speed back to 100, accepted speeds went back up to the expected 10,000.

Temps don't change much whatever the fan speed.

Anyone else experience similar?

I don't use Nicehash, but I don't experience a change in hash rate vs fan speed. My fan is at 50% and hash rate fluctuates between 6.5 and 13.5 reported; averages out between 9 and 10 over a longer period.

Fan speed cannot change the hashrate power.

Would anyone be willing to give me ssh access to their X10 so I can poke around (without altering any settings)?

I'm building a coin hopping pool server and I'd like to make a custom image for X10 miners so that it automatically switches between the most profitable algo. I'm also curious if by deciphering the code if I could potentially unlock the ability to multi-mine. The X10 miner should be able to mine say qubit and groestlcoin (GRS) at the same time. If they had placed a couple additional SHA engines it would be possible to mine almost all of these algo simultaneously.

Fan speed cannot change the hashrate power.

this. and if your running it 40 degrees+ then youre not doing it right. read the specs. the safe max temp is 40

i adjust fan speed all the time depending on the temp since i live in south florida but I never come off 10ghs + or - a little.

as i understand, baikal states "operational temp 0 - 40 C" is ambient tenperature. Not chips itself.

I think we're talking about different things. My x10 never falls below 10.1gh on the baikal dashboard. I was talking about the hash rate reported from a mining pool.

[wolverine5pl]

anyone knows when and what kind of algorithms baikal will add?

Most probably nist5 and groestl.

Hello,
I need some help with my Baikal. It work and pool is ok (alive) but I don't have any hashrate on the pool!
See picture: http://www.bilder-upload.eu/show.php?file=e71ee3-1516035631.jpg

So I think something is wrong and my X10 don't want so send anything.
Any Idea?
Thanks
 

I am having a similar issue.  My Baikal is connecting to the pools but no devices are running.  Also I only see red lights on the Baikal, no blue lights.  When I check with Baikal Monitor it shows this miner as 'sick'.  Anyone run into this?  Anyone have a fix?

I have chips dead issue after 10 days of running, one board show only 49 chips instead of 64, any help?

I had a similar issue of dead chips but power recycling fixed it - disconnect the power supply, wait until the fan stops, reconnect the power supply.

You have to send it to the Baikal. They fixed two of my Baikal with only red light.

I had a new unit shipped that had this exact problem - red light, no blue or green lights.  Because I had multiple units I was able to isolate the problem by swapping both the SD card and the OPi with a functioning unit and determined it was a defective OPi unit as both controllers and all hash boards worked.  You'll need to contact Baikal to get a replacement OPi - no need to ship the unit back IF that's the problem.  It's way faster to have them send you an OPi than a round trip of the entire unit.

** NOTE ** OrangePis are not covered by Baikal's warranty so you have to pay for the new units

Does anyone have experience with the Baikal Monitor software that runs on windows? I have 20 x10's and none appear on when I run a scan, even though I can access them through the web interface just fine. I was not able to locate any documentation on the software so I'm not sure if there's a setting that must be enabled?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
