Re: [ANN] Technobit HEX16A2 - 24 Ghs - 50 EUR 48 h shippment

[marto74]

Hi marto,

I had plan to not use the molex connector but will just solder the power cable to molex connector pin.
I checked the schematic & see that +5 VDC from molex isolated by unmounted R42.
So i want to make sure that i only need +12 VDC only right ?

Yes.
The 5 Volts are delivered by 7805 IC or from USB. Both are possible , depending on 0 Ohm resistor placement.
But from molex We get only 12 Volts, so you can direct solder wires on the connector terminals on the back.

Hi guys,

I followed the instructions on page 11 to get the board running with cgminer, but no success so far. Also on windows it was not possible for me the get it running.

The board LED's are blinking sometimes , sometimes not. Has anyone any Idea or had the same problems?
At least it got recognized on my raspberry, but thats all so far.

Could you please tell us you configuration & which miner board(HEX16A, HEX16B, HEX16C, Nanofury)  

ohh sorry,
it is the HEX16A2 connected to raspberry pi with debian wheezy, PSU has 16A at 12V, so it should be enough power available.
I tried with cgminer 3.8.1 with patch, board gets recognized but no hashes

i used this command to start cgminer:
sudo ./cgminer --hexminerc-voltage 900 --hexminerc-options 16:540

Ok, let try to compile cgminer 3.8.5 since there is bug with hexminerc driver on 3.8.1 patch.

Code:

1. mkdir cgminer
2. cd cgminer
3. wget https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/archive/v3.8.5.tar.gz
4. tar -xvf v3.8.5.tar.gz
5. cd cgminer-3.8.5
6. wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/bqn2fzpglcs20be/afe7710858e4ce28bb60f6ae6e167a18d687634f.patch
7. patch -p1 < afe7710858e4ce28bb60f6ae6e167a18d687634f.patch
8. ./autogen.sh --enable-avalon --enable-hexminerc
9. make

If that still not work, then try to use powered usb hub.

Edit: Just curious, what is the PSU brand?

[stiffla]

Okay I will try, Thank you very much

Do I have to start cgminer with any parameters?

That parameter already right. And i hope you not forget to power on the PSU

Hey
watch technobit site for cgminer(patch)/tplink upgrade with nano support. It should be released any moment
 

Seriously ?? I can't wait  

Yes Dude 2.5Gh + per nano ....
Just refresh it frequently...
This is in return for your nice post card. I liked it  

Nice   Compiling cgminer on pi right now.

marto, i hope you not forget to upload TPLINK image

Really sorry dude, i was wrong. You use wrong parameter. I guess that's the real problem.

The correct parameter is:

Code:

sudo ./cgminer --hexminerc-voltage 1100 --hexminerc-options 16:1500 --set_default_to_c

Dear Marto!
I sent 2 emails to you but i did not get any answer from you.
I have a few questions to you.
I ordered in 4th of December 2x3 boards. Between two orders is 1-2 hour. First: SNOUOBCFN is with DPD economy shipment, the other is: VUMCRQDKX . Please merge this two order to one with DPD shipment.Thank you
I have a question: I ordered it 04-12-2013 and my question is when will be ship?
There is any solution to refund? In case yes, Get I my money back in BTC or USD?

Thanks for the answer!

I tried to compile v3.8.5 but it failed. So i switched back to v3.8.1 and used your parameters, but "--set_default_to_c" doesn't work. Here is a screenshot of the verbose debug messages of cgminer. The HEX16A2 just blinks (red and green)

PSU is no name and also tried with an external powered usb hub

Hey,
1. Enable only HexC Avalon2 board by doing ./autogen.sh -enable-hexminerc
2. Triple check if your board is powered 12v use multimeter and measure the power on miles/thermal connector. It should show you 12v

[stiffla]

I managed to get the board up running with ubuntu on a notebook with this already compiled version of cgminer -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=355323.40 from user 2GOOD.

I tried to configure it with all options and also only with hexminerc enabled on raspberry pi with debian.
Nevertheless, the "make" process always fails

Code:

CC     cgminer-usbutils.o
CC     cgminer-driver-hexminerc.o
CCLD   cgminer
cgminer-driver-hexminerc.o: In function `hexminerc_send_task':
/home/pi/cgminer/driver-hexminerc.c:72: undefined reference to `SHA256_K'

HEX16A & nanofury work great on TPLINK TL-MR3020 using technoBTCit milestone release 0.1.3 image while waiting for HEX16A2 that ordered on December 4th, 2013  

[blitzwilli1]

I understand that correctly?
they have ordered on 04.12.2013 and it was already Sent?

I ordered on 23.11.2013 and it is still in the STATUS Payment accepted
I am very disappointed

order ref please

Again by your order date your order is December shipment and there are 2 more working days here 27-th and 30-th
We are catching up with backlog still and doing our best to finish the 2013 with all 2013 shipment orders shipped

[marto74]

hi marto

have the nanofurys that you were selling on technobit for 48 euro and afterwards 52 euro  been fully produced and ready for pickup/despatch

please update the circumstance here

(just posting in a few places as i am not sure where you would see it. not trolling.  will delete afterwards)

thank you

No all our products are preorder with 3-4 weeks delivery , that we are a little bit behind @ the moment.
@ the moment you can only order nanos with your chips for assembly service and this will be filled in 3-4 weeks

Best Martin
