Newbie questions...
I have 3 Apollo BTC miners up and running with no issues. Full node downloaded in 1.5 days. :-)
I have a controller and 2 standard units. I am running in turbo mode. Hash rate is ~3.1 I see all 3 in the dashboard. Is there any way to increase the power on one of the standard units that is running with a 500W power supply? The other 2 are running the 200W PS. If they all need to be managed by the same rules, I will buy 2 more 500W power supplies if that allows me to increase the hash rate . If I do that, how do push all three to the 3.8TH/s limit? Do I need to adjust the power in "Custom Miner Mode"? If so, how high should I go?
Thank you in advance for your help/advice.
"*Our FutureBit 200W power supply is limited to ~ 3 TH/s, 3.8 TH/s is only achievable with an external > 300 watt power supply"
Is achieving higher hash rates as easy as powering down the unit, plugging in an external PSU (example:Gold Standard 800watt) and turning back on with the new PSU?

Since these already sync so fast I wouldn't waste money on that. Just pop in the new drive and reflash your SD card and it will automatically set it up and start syncing. Thanks for the tip and thats exactly what I'll do today

"*Our FutureBit 200W power supply is limited to ~ 3 TH/s, 3.8 TH/s is only achievable with an external > 300 watt power supply" +1 for this question. What are recommended settings for 3.8 TH/s? For now, I have been going as far as 85/55, resulting in approx. 3,4TH/s@0,07W/GHs (with a 0,9% error rate). Guess you have to push the freq up to 60 to get the full 3,8TH/s (provided you have a capable PSU ofc!) Each hardware has its own sweet spot, so you have to try out what works best for you. I have two units but cannot get the second one to fire using miner_start_all. Any chance you'd be willing to help me work through this?

My node locks up completely when it loses the internet connection during syncing. This is common where I am unfortunately. The problem is that the whole machine locks up when this happens. Completely frozen. My only option is to switch the power on and off.
Is this okay? Or is there another alternative?
I have waited as long as two hours so far to see if it will "unfreeze" itself but it doesn't seem to do that.

Thanks for the tip and thats exactly what I'll do today I would probably save the time and bandwidth and copy the already synced blockchain data across from the original SSD.

Sounds stupid but are you sure youve put your details in correctly? Dont forget that the pool address bar doesnt need the “stratum+tcp” at the beginning.

Is that plugging into the unit directly or over your network. Its a known issue that it will no inactive when looking at the panel via a web browser. Hook up a monitor and you should see it al working.

If you hook it up via the hdmi output then you will see it working normally. Not sure about the auto restart after the internet goes down.

Finally set up the full + 2 standard units I received a few days ago. Very easy. One of the standard units took awhile (about 15 min) to display a stable hashrate now all three are happily churning out about 2Th/s avg each. Just leaving it on ECO, over 6Th/s for under 380 watts! Disabled the BTC pool - not my thing. Good news helps to offset the negative stuff. Good software, good hardware. Thanks John!

Hey Folks -
Any thoughts on what I need to do to get the Taproot support going here? 0.21.1?
Thanks, r00tdude

0.21.1 supports Taproot activation, you won't need to do anything

Came home from work today, and the miner had timed itself out. No big deal because I Restarted my miner and it was up and running again no issues. Only thing is now it is starting to make an awful sound every couple seconds. I have a feeling this noise is coming from the fan since it is a moving part. has anyone else run into this issue yet? If so what is the remedy. Should I safely stop the unit from mining and safely shut down the node till i find the culprit or is it safe? Operating temperature is fine. Everything looks great besides this weird sound. have been running in ECO mode since the unit came online. Haven't messed with any settings. Maybe something is coming loose or starting to?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Yes others have the same issue. It's the CPU fan on the SBC, temps will be fine it will just be noisy. I've temporarily unplugged mine until support sends me another one I merely tightened the 2 mount screws. It worked for me but not others. It is not the larger fan. It is a very small fan about 3/4 of an inch on the underside of the unit.
