Looks like your water cooling block is either out of fluid or the pump has failed. I have had a number of them fail. Replacement isn't very difficult but the replacement is probably not worth buying as the Sierra is unlikely to make enough additional to cover the cost.

Thanks alot. Thats was the problem One of the coolers out of the 3 was busted. I was able to determine as one of the pipes were warmer than the others. I will try to setup the third one sepratly. |

I just replace an H80i on a Habanero that was thermally tripping tonight, and when I opened it up I was a little surprised to find the block was all fouled up.  I'm not sure the cause, but given the number of units I've seen fail I wouldn't be surprised if there were a bunch of these that need to be replaced soon. |

That is a little surprising. wonder why it would happen so quickly. Wrong coolant? Fearful of what all those crappy running cointerras look like inside as I have zero desire to tear each underperformer apart.

the guy i purchased my boards from said he thinks hf posted a firmware update for the boards but has since removed it and i cant find it anywhere....does ne one happen to have the update still?? can u send it my way in a pm??
also to people running their cards outside of the cases....are you looking to sell your hf case?? if so i might be interested in purchasing one or 2 if the price is right. i might even want some of those wooden ones or the plans to make them so i can do it myself if its too pricey to have them pre made. pm me if interested.

So does anyone have the v0.8.0 yoli board firmware and or bootloader update?? I cant update the firmware without updating the bootloader but i cant use the hashfast app with linux to install it even after fixing the issues with pyusb and python.....i have spent days trying to build everything and im getting annoyed at the fact that their instructions leave so much information out and that they could have easily posted the hex files already made for the update alongside the non compiled files but they didnt....it makes no damn sense to me!

I just acquired a couple of Sierra units that are Rev 2.3 boards and am having a problem getting my Ubuntu Linux to see them when I plug their USB cables into my Linux box. With Habanero boards I can see the boards get recognized in dmesg but nothing happens with the Sierra boards. Has anyone else experienced this and if so what was yrou solution? Also, when I run sudo ./cgminer -n the three boards in the Sierra are not recognized by cgminer (of course the habaneros are). On a related not I'm using the latest git pull of cgminer. Also, jut to be thorough I pressed the on-board power button to make sure the boards had power and the fans on the coolers were spinning (holy crap these things are loud).

I just had a thought .... are the Sierra units U*SB 2 or USB3? I have them plugged into a USB2 hub right now. If they're USB3 that's no bueno ...

Maybe you have the board to usb connector on backwards? Red wire goes towards the black ribbon cable connector. |

Nope ... red wire on the USB header is correct. Me thinks I need to try my USB3 hub plugged into my USB3 port on me's 'puter ....

After that it goes in loop and trying to start.
What is Quadrant and regulator?

Each of the four dies is a quadrant. The regulator is what feeds low voltage power to the chip. Quadrant 3 would be the one diagonally across from the side with the USB header. Sounds like your board has a fault on it. |

Sounds like your board has a fault on it. In picture quadrant 3, it is high diagonally on left, closest to USB header? Will check regulators, it can be faulty capacitor for that quadrant maybe too? It is possible to get diagram for Hashfast boards?  I had Antminer s1 with broken capacitor and regulator, i fixed regulator and worked ok without capacitor...  |

Hey Mr. Teal / et. al., I happen to be in possession of a number of Sierra machines of recent purchase. They arrived, I spun up their PSUs by using the power button on the PSU and nothing happened. So ... I decided to press one of the buttons on each of the three boards in the case and viola the CoolT fans started spinning adn I felt certain there was 12VDC on the board. It seemd to me thsi should have caused ther USB device to spin up as well. I felt good about this part. So, I followed the "compiling cgminer for HashFast stuff" guide at http://hashfast.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Compiling-CG-Miner-to-show-multiple-die-temps.pdf and thought I was about to have me some mining success. This was not the case. It seems cgminer cannot see the sierra boards (each is USB connected and not chained). I have tried to connect the Sierra to a USB3 hub and a USB2 hub and I get the same outcome ... nothing shows up in dmesg (oh yea ... I'm running Ubuntu 14.04LTS on said MiniITX / shuttle machine) *AND* thus nothing gets seen by cgminer. I am using a MininItx form-factor PC. The wierd part of all of this is tha my BFL SC devices adn Jalos get seen and my BE USB devices get seen. Could it be that I'm getting borked by said MiniItx machine? If I followed the HashFast guide set-by-step shouldn't I see predictable outcome / the outcome HashFast described? Any amount of your wisdom is HUGELY appreciated. H@shKraker |

As to what the problem could be, hard to say. I don't think there's public schematics but I could be wrong. |

H@shKraker If you type lsusb, do you see the devices? Also, you might want to try with a vanilla version of cgminer first just to ensure it's not an issue with the build of cgminer. |
