Hi all ! So i got one of this beauty this Week ! (Received in France without problem And faster than excepted ( doesnt havé any tax import.. ) )Works like a charm except the wifi connection... Powered with a corsair vs550. I have some questions : - What the apollo web shows with accepted shares ? Thats not the real numbers of accepted Share i got in the pool . - is there a console view like we got with bfgminer ? - can we set a manual diff for our apollos ? And final question : do you will make a discount for those why pre-ordered one cause i think i'll buy one more ... Thanks for this jfstefanop!

Phil any photos of it hooked up along with the l3+ to the Apw5?

Hi jstefanop, please give us the possibility to lower the fan rotation to near the 1000-1200 rpm. Currently the minimum is 10% which corresponds to 1400-1500 rpms near 60ºC. I want my Apollos to be quieter .

Hello,
received my Apollo today in Austria, additional 68 EUR customs, whatever. Any recommendations for the PSU, haven't bought one yet? I just have one Apollo. I will bring it to life at Christmas time.
Cheers WB

I want my Apollos to be quieter . Yep, that will be updated on the next release. The fan requires at least 10% to startup, but we have some updated logic that will allow it to fall back to 5% on the next image release.

Here is a gui shot Thanks for this philipma - I was wondering what it looked like. I'm expecting my absolute UNITS (the first batch) later this week and I've been imaging my SD cards most of the afternoon (a joyful exercise to be sure)... wondering what the UI looked like. Honestly, can't wait until I get them running. Now, my question is... jstephanop - do you have any plans on putting p2pool node software on them (or maybe some instructions for us to do so) - so we can run the miners on our own node without having to build one ourselves? Are the capable of running a node? I mean, running them on litecoinpool is so boring... and if I could get a node built on one of the rigs, I'd be happy to point the rest of my rigs at it and have some real fun. I've said it in personal email, reddit and twitter... but I'll say it again here. I'm so pleased to be supporting jstephanop, LTC and the community by buying and running these rigs. If I had a choice, I'd ditch my Chinese Shitmain gear and mine just with these, but I need coin... Oh, and I second the call for the shell creds... I'll definitely want to poke around the back-end of the controller looking for opportunities to improve/tailor these a bit! Rgds, r00tdude EDIT - I guess this is all I needed: http://p2pool.in/ - now will just need the shell creds and I can install and configure the node myself

Rgds, r00tdude Yea once we have the full node running well were going to be able to do cool stuff like this. All this stuff will be provided as free updates for you guys in the coming months.

Shell creds are futurebit/futurebit. As a friendly reminder, don't put this on a public network because ssh is running on default port 22.

Order # 1209 was received at Portugal and two more Apollos are working. The screws on the sides came without tightening but it was easy to tighten. Only problem was having to pay an additional $ 95 for each at Customs ! 95 each?? Isn’t import VAT ~17%? Should not be more than $50. VAT is different from country to country here in the EU. Here is 23% and I paid even more $ 45 in administrative expenses! I will buy more when available from the your European retailer. got a text earlier from fedex £54.95 to pay here in the uk and i was hoping I'd gotten away with it too lol Feedbackhad my units for almost 24 hours now running pretty smoothly but I've had some minor software issues: shutdown of one of the units caused the fan to run at full speed continuously after a shutdown a unit failed to start after shutdown power cycle solved this unable to change pool order until restart on one system, seems fine now case: the gap between the 12v connectors and the case is too small making it difficult to plug or unplug my psu due to the latch just like the MLD's these are a great product that I could happily recommend simple to use even for a first time miner/Luddite GJ

Use the "reboot" command for this in the system options. -Pool changes should show you a "Miner needs to restart" button on the top...you should not need a full reboot though...ill do some more digging on this one.

While I obviously don't care if people get in the backend, I would not mess around unless you know what your doing. The system is highly configured to run the mining processes and low level hardware controls, and even a sudo apt upgrade could break something.

Hello, I've been using Apollo for few days now and I have one suggestion.
Fan in auto mode is not really stable. It's following sinusoidal curve. It spins fast so chip gets cooled down. Then fans slows down. And down. To the point where fan is inaudible and way to slow to be sustainable. Then temperature creeps up and fan starts spinning faster and faster. And cycle repeats, again, again, and again. (my ambient temperature is 18 C)
This could be solved in one easy way: Let user use Auto fan mode and set minimum fan speed for this Auto mode. That way, fan slows down automatically, but not too much (slows to set minimum value, not slower), so sinusoidal curve of fan RPM is not that drastic.
I could set fan to manual but then I need to monitor it, I don't have any overheat protection at all.
Ideal behaviour is claymore dual miner fan control for GPUs. You can set min and max speed of fan and temperature target. Also critical temperature where mining slows down, and super critical temperature when mining stops. Then it's all automatic and you don't ever need to worry about it anymore. But I guess for first step, Auto mode with set min speed (instead of Auto mode and 0-100 speed) will be enough. Thanks.

Yea fan logic was the last thing I did and didn't have time to put alot of work in it. To be clear there IS thermal shutdown controls in place regardless of your settings. Next version will have a gravity well type algorithm for AUTO that should stick it to one fan speed over a wider range of temperatures. Ill be implementing a PID algorithm with target temperature in the version after that.
