OC AsicBoost Antminer S9, T9+ Bmminer - Deploy Tool and access to set freq, volt, Fan Disable

[alex1560]

Hey guys

[thierry4wd]

Hi, that makes me look nice! I nevertheless "find" a problem, in the "set-miner-config" ...

Code:

cp /www/pages/cgi-bin/minerConfiguration2.cgi /www/pages/cgi-bin/minerConfiguration.cgi -f

This will just erase the new configuration page once "apply" ... a simple oversight?

As far as I'm concerned, I'm looking forward to the Bmminer for T9 + because it's actually exactly what I'm working on now, because of the decreasing voltage variant with freq, I'm limited to 12.5Ths stable in overclock (1400W at wall).

Hi,

It's just one minerConfiguration.cgi in the package because there are 2 files the same, but with different name. I replace both files on the miner.

For T9+, I tested and foltage setting works fine. I set it to 675 mhz and 920 mv for now to see how it holds. I think 930 or 940 is the hardware limit set on the pic as well as on the s9.

Will post an update to this thread when it's live.

[thierry4wd]

What conssomation?

my T9 + test indicates

Code:

Fix freq = 643 Chain [1] voltage_pic = 28 value = 820
Fix freq = 643 Chain [2] voltage_pic = 28 value = 820
Fix freq = 643 Chain [8] voltage_pic = 28 value = 820

perfectly stable at 7.9Ths and 0.0003% hw (only 2 hashboard) and 920W

looking great!
is the T9 available yet? cat it oc as well to 14TH?

Hi, I am still running stability tests of the bmminer, I don't think running at 14 TH/s will be ok for T9+ with regular cooling, so far I run it for 2 days on 12.3 TH/s with a freq of 675 . With 675 MHz it stays at 83 Chip temp, which is resonable.

I did not do any consuming tests, as this is not usually my thing to do, the clients tune their machine by their environment, hashing rate required, wattage etc.

I will post an upgrade soon which will include T9+ firmware and a config to switch between which miner you want to deploy.

very nice...thanks for your contribution to mining community!

My experiance on 2 x T9 + is:

675Mhz - 810Mv (display in kernel log) and about 12.4 Ths for 1400W at maturity

Strongly your Bmminer that I can adjust the voltage! because to mount the Freq does not give good result because the card hash moin quickly ...

Alex, thanks for providing this to the BTC Talk community.

Alex, thanks for providing this to the BTC Talk community.

Hi, You are welcome! let me know if you find any problems while using it.

[thierry4wd]

Great! so, if I understand correctly, can not change the voltage via this BMMINER for T9 + but only the ratio "voltage / freq" has been changed?

in addition, your BMMINER for T9 + thus brings the freq control, and the deactivation of the fan check?

I'm just going to take the BMMINER and the configuration page and test all that to see how it's done;)

Hi,

It seems that you did not read nor the post nor the read me file. You deployed with the config left for S9.

I plan to add a check for the miner version and choose bmminer automatically, but I will implement that when I have some free time.

For now you open config.txt and for minerversion type T9+

Great! so, if I understand correctly, can not change the voltage via this BMMINER for T9 + but only the ratio "voltage / freq" has been changed?

in addition, your BMMINER for T9 + thus brings the freq control, and the deactivation of the fan check?

I'm just going to take the BMMINER and the configuration page and test all that to see how it's done;)

Hi, no, you can change voltage and freq independently, you just need to be more careful with the readme files delivered with this kind of scripts.

Good luck!

[thierry4wd]

Thank you I know lol I'm not at my test shot on the minor, I'm also in hardware!

on your tweak, i did not run the "bmminer-deploy.exe" but i just copy the "bmminer-t9 +" and "minerconfiguration" on my minor, i got the config page, i take 700mhz and 870mv ...

But that did not work, I took care not to use the bmminer-S9 but beautiful and well the T9 + bmminer;)

not sure what to say, I did that tool to avoid doing this kind of support because there are some steps which must be followed when copying these files, permissions set etc.

Someone on my discord channel got it overclocked to 13.7 using same files, also had issues before using the deploy tool.

The guy on discord used 750 frequency, but temp was 100 deg, a bit to much I would say. Let me know if you manage to do it, I am sure you would find a way eventually if you don't
want to use my tool.

[thierry4wd]

it's more than 3 months that my T9 + turn at about 12.5Ths without problem, I had tweak this minor since long time: p

so I prayed the Bmminer T9 + that I copy on my minor, I also gave him the right to know rwxr-xr-x ...

I do not see where the mistake is ... anyway it is absolutely necessary to execute your deployer? Did I miss something ?

I must recognize that the possibility of changing the tension of your bmminer greatly interests me: p

Do a search on youtube for my video where I show to build the bmminer and how to install it, I am not sure if I am allowed to post
youtube links on this forum, but you should be able to find it easy enough. The tool was made for mass deploy, so for 1 machine I guess is not
really needed if you know what you are doing. It's helpful to learn anyway what needs to be done. I guess you renamed bmminer_t9+ to bmminer .

Also, you can try with one board if you are unsure of your results, maybe you have a different T9+ miner, who knows.

[thierry4wd]

yes;) it's already what I did:

Before i connection only hashboard for test

1 - remove original Bmminer
2 - copy Bmminer-T9 +
3 - rename to bmminer
3 - Attribution of the right attribute
4 - replace minerConfiguration.cgi
5 - delete from minerConfiguration2.cgi (if in doubt)
6 - in page configuration, modified the value and apply

and after you know more ...

In my newer version I added a set_miner_conf.cgi to setup the extra veriables I added to turn off or on voltage setting, that must be added otherwise it will not write properly the config file.

There are some files which you did not copy/set. I am not going over the entire logic of the tool, as the purpose is not to teach others to program or how to make their own tools for this.

This bmminer file is made to include new interface variables. If you want your own bmminer, stripped of the interface stuff, you can use the video to build a bmminer and set things inside bmminer
then build every time you want to change a value.

Hope it makes sense. Spend a little more time with this if you want to do it your own way then in 1-2 days can post your solution, we are crowding this topic already.
