Innosilicon A4+ setup tutorial

[zukolega]

I also have some Innosilicon A5's I've been trying to get in Awesome Miner and was finally successful tonight. You need to edit three lines in the /home/inno_py/inno_config.py file. It looks like it generates a new run.sh file for each pool/pool change. I highlighted the lines and the adds below:

gInnoInitCmdStr = 'innominer_%s -o %s -u %s -p %s --A1Pll1 %s --A1Pll2 %s --A1Pll3 %s --A1Pll4 %s --A1Vol %s --api-listen --api-network --api-allow W:0/0 > /dev/null 2>&1'

this would probably work too : edit the first one then

gInnoCmd1Pool     = gInnoInitCmdStr
gInnoCmd2Pool     = gInnoInitCmdStr
gInnoCmd3Pool     = gInnoInitCmdStr

and #comment out the other gInnoCmd#Pool lines
*edit
--if you are only using one pool

thanks guys, your methods for getting the a4+ into awesome miner worked.

anyone managed to get temps to display?

[chadl2]

I haven't been able to, but would be great to know if anyone does.

[Gazdac2]

So here's a fun one. One of my fans stopped working, and inno said go F#*% yourself and find a fan yourself. Great warranty.

Anyways while I wait for new ones to arrive from china (you CAN get them for "$5 each", but only if you buy like 10-20 at a time and pay +$60 in shipping.)

Anyways. I took the fan apart to diagnose and well... half rusted. perfect straight line across the middle. Rusted as in it sat in a pool of saltwater, one side shiny new, one side dead. I have one more fan that is loud, so I'll take it apart once the new fans arrive. but WTF Inno.

Anyways... if one fan is louder than the others better order replacements early.

Wow! That really sucks... It's what happens when these miners are poorly made and tbh they don't really care about the customer.

I've got 3 miners that never start mining. I've tried reflashing the firmware and restoring defaults

The logs show it appearing to just loop round

Here is where our logs kinda start to differ.
Sure sounds like it can see the chains are plugged in, but they don't reply to commands.
Green lights on all 4 chains?
they getting power? CLEAN power? Need higher (lower #) voltage? I'm using my own power supplies and I think some are as high as Power Level 22.

You have a G19? so you CAN'T flash it right? only use the "upgrade" file or did some actually come with a TF port?

I *think* they had a TF port, I'm not physically near the machines so can't double check.

Power is good - they're hosted in a data center using Innosilicon PSU

I've submitted a ticket to Innosilicon - see what they say.

[Pujols89]

I had to chase them for the confirmation it took about 10 days
open the case on their website
and send Emails to
luojm@innosilicon.com.cn,
zhangq@innosilicon.com.cn,
miner_sales@innosilicon.com.cn,
shupp@innosilicon.com.cn
with your order number

I've emailed all of those emails multiple times and still nothing. I wired the rest of my money over a month ago and haven't heard diddly. Anyone have a better way of getting a hold of these people?!

Heh, yeah TF port.

When I first got mine I took my shiny new SD card with the new firmware( Just like the instructions say on the website)  on it and put in the slot and. *plunk*, it just fell in the hole. No actual port, just a hole.

GL, majorly suspicious if you ended up with 3 failures, with a total of 12 cards broken.

Then again parts of mine look like they were physically dunked in water before sending to me.

That's how my entire ordering process went. My email to tell them that the just lost my future business was replied with "here is tracking number xxxxx"

Funny how they could ship "immediately" if you ordered on Christmas, so I am guessing you are just forgotten.   I think the replies came after sending to miner_sales and shupp. Did they even confirm your payment, and request your mailing address? Guess you can always email miner support and say "my miners are not working, since they are not physically present. Please send replacements."

some overclock this miner?

and what is the normal/best temperature for the miner?

[BWYeung]

New Miner - just got the Innosilicon A4+ LTC Master hooked up to a Bitmain APW3++ (110) and plugged directly into my AT&T Uverse Modem/Router. I've followed the direction from the OP, (upgraded firmware, enter my pool info - Litecoinpool) I have not gone into the Advance Config and change the inno_config.py file. I've also enabled pass through the AT&T modem/router for litecoinpool's ports-TCP 3333 & 8080), been running for over 2 hours. I did have to change the A4+'s IP as it was the same as the modem/router.

Question: How do I know if I'm connected and mining in the pool? Issues, Miner Status Overview does not show me anything, I get the spinning flower fore Summery, InnoMiner, and Pools. Also, my litecoinpool accounts page shows all zeros, if connect, when should you start seeing data?

TIA.

EDIT: Using latest firmware as it works with the Dec 22 Password.

[Giantppl]

Same here miner status is constantly loading.. no hash rate showed at the pool. Tried to upgrade the software but it stops at 10% and when u refresh the page its gone.
Any idea how to flash it? I have another A4+ working well. Any advice greatly appreciated..

I'm really an illiterate when it comes to tech. the miner status just keeps spinning and not even loading anything..
is there a way where I can copy the files from the working A4+ to the not working one? I do suspect its the software issue.

Same here miner status is constantly loading.. no hash rate showed at the pool. Tried to upgrade the software but it stops at 10% and when u refresh the page its gone.
Any idea how to flash it? I have another A4+ working well. Any advice greatly appreciated..

What's your System Version info, mine are:

Below is the debug log, I'm assuming this is not good.

For Newbies: I telnet in, and use the 1st and 3rd line to run the debug.

Code:

cd /bin
root@miner/bin:
./innominer_T3 --debug
 :)

I think T3 is for the A5 miner, so here is stuff that works for my A4+

When you first telnet to the miner (192.168.1.xxx:8100) and login (root:t1t2t3a5)
Check if it is even trying to mine (ps|grep innominer)

it should look the same as a properly configured launch string i.e.  (minus the bit on the end):

innominer_T2 -o stratum+tcp://scrypt.mine.zpool.ca:3433 -u 1BPiRf942duu8AqFQGoRVwz4WGHn3APLm8 -p "c=BTC" -o stratum+tcp://hub.miningpoolhub.com:12001 -u gazdac.201 -p "x" --A1Pll1 1100 --A1Pll2 1100 --A1Pll3 1100 --A1Pll4 1100 --A1Pll5 1100 --A1Pll6 1100 --A1Pll7 1100 --A1Pll8 1100 --A1Vol1 18 --A1Vol2 18 --A1Vol3 18 --A1Vol4 18 --A1Vol5 18 --A1Vol6 18 --A1Vol7 18 --A1Vol8 18 --A1Fanmode 1 --A1Fanspd 3  --api-listen --syslog >/dev/null 2>&1

note this  launch string resides in: /tmp/run.sh  whenever you want to restart the miner just type (/tmp/run.sh) and it will restart the process (5 minute start up time)

If it isn't running and/or your launch string is not correct you have to fix the python config files (see 2)

(1)If it is running you can watch the logs real time (tail -50 /tmp/log/innominer.log -f) (remember to ctrl+c to stop watching) you won't see it in the webui unless you get all the way to starting mining (5+ minutes)
I have no idea what to do if it is running and configured properly, other than up the voltages (lower number)

(2)so if you run /tmp/run.sh is wrong or it isn't in ps at all. then config is screwed up.

For those that might have the same problem. Looks like my a4+ corrupted files during  a reboot  then stopped working.
/home/inno_tools/start_miner.py

The damn thing deleted a couple characters and killed itself.
Here's what the file looked like

vi /lib/python3.4/_sysconfigdata.py...

 'HAVE_GETLOGIN': 1,
 'HAVE_GETNAMEINFO': 1,
 'HAVE_GETPAGESIZE': 1,
E_GETPEERNAME': 1,
 'HAVE_GETPGID': 1,
 'HAVE_GETPGRP': 1,
...

There might have been more errors, i dunno. I coped the file from another miner and now it works.
Symptoms were the HTTP control page loading, but not showing any data e.g. not showing me  "miner type" under system.
I found the file by manually running each of the commands in /etc/init.d/rcS

Good luck to the rest of you.

To transfer files I just copied and pasted the broken parts.
Looks like it has ftp available as well.
https://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html
look for ftpd or ftpget/ftpput

remember you have to  mount / -o rw,remount to edit files


uhh this was TMI for everyone probably. just confusing you all more.
