Dayun Zig Z1 - Lyra2Rev2 6.8GH/s Asic miner

[ttlargura1]

So i unplugged my Zig Z1 to install a shroud and when i plugged it back in the red light was on and I now cant log into my miner from the ip address. Tried hard reset and scanning for a different IP address but I can log into it all all. Has anyone experiance this or have any ideas on how to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[citronick]

I have been mining the Zig Z1 for a couple of weeks now -- have tried a number of sites -- individual coins and multi-coin sites -- best I have come across so far a Prohash and Zpool.  I found suprnova had issues with the hashrate falling off precipitously, experienced a less severe gradual decline at blockmaster as well.  Zpool seems to be consistent however have to reboot machine every two to three days or so to keep hashrate up.  Running at 850mhs -- average hashrate 6-6.2.

Try what was noted earlier in the forum...  Change the foillowing in an exported JSON:
 From: "auto_frequent":"0","frequency":"850"

to

"auto_frequent":"1","frequency":"1000"

It worked wonders for me.

Will this settings work for Z1+ too ?

I was able to get mine working by burning this firmware on a new USB stick:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1z564S10Q3SWN8-8_HmreuUCQEI_gXYl9

Not sure how to load this onto the USB, do you need to extract the files first.

Z1 not booting at all.

There is included usb imaging software in the first folder I believe.  You also need to unzip the .7z file, because it contains the image.  Run the imaging software and choose the image that was unzipped. 

I used a different usb drive thanwhat came with it and after a couple user error problems, I got it to work.

Can you elaborate on how you got it to work? I bought a 16 GB flash drive and loaded the image via the included exe, but I can't connect to the machine's web interface to make changes or set the static ip.

Are you on a 192.168.1.x network, the default IP is 192.168.1.100

No, I'm on 192.168.0.x

That's your problem. Either give yourself a 192.168.1.x address and connect to the ASIC directly to change the Z1 IP to 192.168.0.x, or change your network to 192.168.1.x. You could cheat by changing the subnet on the network from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0

So I switched my network to 192.168.1.x, but I still can't get it at 192.168.1.100 and I can't see it on the ip scanner or my router. My service goes from cable modem to Tenda wireless router to a switch (via ethernet) and then to the asic. Any other suggestions?  I've also been trying to reset it, is there a special sequence for that?  Thanks for your help BTW, this one is stumping me!

It might not work now since you messed with the USB. Did the USB creation involve running an EXE program that writes an ISO image file to the USB?

I used the imageUSB exe that was included in the zip file and I wrote the z1_static_100_09_14 image file to it.

Why would you do that? You can just enter the interface and upload the new firmware from the settings. Did it work after all? I did firmware upgrade thru the interface settings and it's working for 5 days without any problems. Less Hw errors and rejects...

The ASIC was on a different network, he assumed that it was not working

I got it!

  My stupid free windows unzip "App" didn't create a proper image file... re-extracted (while watching ads, not minimized) and it works!  Thanks for the help!

Hello,
I think i am experiencing the same issue that you had. My miner has a red light on it and I can no longer find my IP address. It worked fine for weeks but then i unplugged it and plugged it back in and the red light was there. What exactly did you put on the USB to make it work. I tried using a new USB that i bought and putting the new firmware on it and putting it in the miner but I still wasn't able to log into my miner. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

How to upgrade thermal paste to more stability and cool the chips.
Original thermal paste will dry and lower conduct the heat. And not full of contact surface.

1.this is picture front and back of board
https://ibb.co/iZ8bwL
https://ibb.co/nKjS30

2. Screw of at front 6 screw each heat sink then clean the old thermal paste , you will see a not full contact surface
then unscrew 2 screw to release the back plate.(Direct contact to PCB board) and clean
https://ibb.co/mvU5qf
https://ibb.co/mwFObL
https://ibb.co/fYxEi0

3. clean PCB board
https://ibb.co/dGbUGL

4. place a Arctic MX-4. I choose it because high conductivity of heat 8.5watt/MK , cheap and durability for 8 years.
put the black plate to cover the back and screw 2 screw
https://ibb.co/jpwUGL

put thethermal paste to your chips and spread to make sure fully contact surface.
https://ibb.co/etiLO0

Finish, result decrease in 2-3 celcius in the same condition. better stability for hashing.
I use approximate 10-12g of arctic MX-4. then you must prepare enough thermal paste.
statistic from nicehash, this is Z1 not Z1+

What were your before and after temps?

Mine are currently at 34-35 C for all four boards without any changes, ambient 22C.

You guys know what happend to the profitability of this miner?
It went down over 60% in the last 6-8h!

What-To-Mine still shows 45-50$
NiceHash calculator the same: 45-50$
But they don't use real-time data so this is wrong...

Here you can see what you really earn: https://www.asicminervalue.com/miners/dayun/zig-z1
We are down to 20$ -somthing a day

And my app (NiceHash Monitor) tells me the same...20$ -somthing a day.

[Silent_samurai]

the same is happen to me
does any one know what happen?
I think it's coz of Vertcoin rate goes down

[flexmeister]

wow, not good.. vertcoin network hashrate went from 1.35Th/s to 3.4Th/s, monacoin went from 4Th/s to 8Th/s. Guess some big mining operation or a more powerful asic came online

I see, let me guess...

Soon Bitmain will announce a new lyra2rev2 asic that will be shippend in 1-2month.
Truth is, the miners are already build and they are using them before they sell them...just a theory but some ppl say this happend before.

[Silent_samurai]

there is no more powerful if
 there is https://www.asicminervalue.com/ have to show him before!

[alex.asic]

I saw this as soon as i got home from work and thought the market had gone through the floor.

Hey Joyson
do you whats the reason of profitably of z1?
what is the problem?

Any idea what happened cos I just saw this now on Asicminervalue and really worried as a Z1+ is getting shipped to me as we speak

[hafez70]

Hi!

I am newbe with this hardware  and i recently ordered one from china.

Is there anyone who can give me real profitability experience about Zig Z1 + here ?! Is it good at all ?!

Yeah, very possible. There were some big orders pending too (we have that info from the factory). Probably they got shipped out last week and have been connected last night. Dayun is not very open at communications since its said also that the actual factory is Pangolin (At least our hashboards that were dead were sent to the Whatsminer factory)...Playing little games the Chinese as usual. The A9 has shown good stability and is now again our main target when stocking up our farm...

Theory 1:
Big order went out (Z1/Z1+) and the miners got online this night.

Theory 2:
Another manufacturer is testing a new miner.

still not get confirmed news from China market ,will let u know if any internal news we got ,

I am internal too my friend But always good if you share some more insights. I am in China myself, just Friday I went to the factory checking on our miner order for this week.

Profit is slowly crawling back up. So looks like another manufacturer testing...

Which pool is the best for dayun zig z1 + in this situation ?!
