I guess I just don't understand why the unit would not just increase the fan speeds. The temp sensors are working, so it knows what the temps are. The fans can be speeded up more - as I have successfully tested that they can actually run faster. Is there some setting in some config file that should be checked/changed? Or, is this indicative of some kind of power issue? Other? If I manually speed the fans up to near the same speed as the other unit, the temps fall closely in line. It seems like a setting issue to me. But I don't know the internals of where to look, what to check for, etc...
Because, as mentioned, those temps are relatively low. Whatever software you're using has it's levels out of line for an Antminer.
Sorry for the very late response - I didn't see that I had activity on my thread
I am not using any particular software - this is what I am seeing by using the miner's own GUI - no 3rd party software of firmware involved. That's why I don't get it. If the firmware on the two miners is at the same version, and the temperature sensors are working, then why are the miners operating the fans so differently? They are setting right next to each other. Same ambient temperature. Same model. Same firmware. Yet one runs the fans faster and keeps the temps lower and the other does not. I would like them to run similarly. If one is running the fans overly fast - that is using more power and costing profits. If the other is running to slow, it will cause it to overheat sooner when weather gets warmer.
I don't like setting the fan percent directly - as is doesn't allow the fans to adjust properly based on changing ambient temps. So, to be safe I have to run the fans on the fast side in case of higher ambient temp changes throughout the day - costing me extra money in power and probably reducing the fans life expectancy.
I just want to understand why this is happening and how to correct it. One of these machines in not operating it's fans properly.
