LightningAsic Gridseed Controller Firmware V3

[rammy2k2]

cant wait for new firmware release, very nice things are coming

[gbyg]

Anybody use this firmware with moded(volt-mode) over-clocked (=/>1100mhz) gridseeds? Can you share your experience please?

Something is wrong with V3c and WIIBOX i can´t get my miners working

good works.
hope LIGHTNINGASIC can help to improve mining investment ROI.

Did you try a cold reboot? Make sure the miners are getting the 12V from the PSU.

[FreeJack2k2]

Jack,

Is there a way to get replacement controllers? I updated to the first version of the V3 firmware and after that, it won't allow me to update the firmware again. I get "failed to unpack firmware" errors on both of my controllers. I don't want to miss out on the improvements in later versions.

Or you could mail them to me, you pay for shipping and I will repair them for free.

New updated firmware available (v3d).
With this update, it is possible to run some of your miners at 925MHz without hardware errors.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6c5xbwiud9fbrz7/iWVpZNkIMm/LAG3355_12-RC10d.bin

Changes:

• Added Auto Overclocking: automatically finds the best frequency for each individual chip, and adjust it accordingly. The number after the '@' sign indicates the chip_id
• Fixed a bug with delayed work dispatching, this should further decrease reject rate
• Disabled FIFO

As always, a cold reboot might be necessary after updating.

[rammy2k2]

testing it ! 
thanks

I get the same "failed to unpack" problem with RC10d as I did with RC10c.

There has to be a sollution for this, other than mailing it to either of you guys and loosing out on days or weeks of mining.

Those of us experiencing this problem, were we supplied flawed controllers from AsiaBTC?

What exactly is it you guys fix if we were to send the controller to you? Can it really not be fixed in any other way?

This is starting to become a big problem with new versions looking better. This needs to be adressed.

thanks a lot

If you are good at soldering, you can attempt it yourself: http://forums.openpilot.org/blog/52/entry-92-unbrick-wr703n-wifi-router/
Reflash your controller through the serial console to the v1 bin image, then using the web interface upload the rc10 bin image.
I'm offering to repair free of charge, all you need to do is send them to me and pay the shipping.

[sandor111]

To elaborate a bit on how the auto overclocking works, if the chip has hashed for over 600s it will attempt to change the frequency. If there is more than 1 HW error or if the current hashrate is less than the previous hashrate (after that 600s period), it will decrease the frequency, otherwise increase it. It will stop adjusting if the frequency has been decreased atleast once, so make sure to pick a low enough frequency to start with. The frequency adjusts in steps of 25MHz, I have found this to give the most stable results while overclocking, and it also makes sense if you look at how the frequency is calculated from the PLL variables.

Where are you located?

Any chance of a swap system? You send a fixed controller first, I hook that one up, and send the broken one to you?

I am located in W-Europe (PM me to arrange shipping), I don't have a spare controller on me ATM.

[PondSea]

Out of interest would this new firmware work on the red controllers?

Got 2 as part of my pack which i have not used as im using a PI

New updated firmware available (v3d).

If you are already running v3, can you upgrade to v3d directly?
Or should you first use v2 firmware?

I flashed to v3d but can't tell if it worked or not. Any way to check this?
