TECHNOBIT support tread + customer feedback

[Japs2013]

0.3.2 Avalon 3 release http://technobit.eu/0_3_2.rar
0.3.2 HEX3A3 - Avalon3 board release
* HEX3A3 defaults: --hexminer3-chip-mask 255 --hexminer3-voltage 800 --hexminer3-options 16:7000
* HEX3A3 --hexminer3-options 16:7000 16 is chip count per board and 7000 is desired speed per chip in Mh/s. 7000 equals to 7G per chip.
* cgminer patch to cgminer 4.2.3 rev e574114682fe1edc344b7e291eb9d9497d26ef92.patch
* cgminer bug fixes:HEXa frequent HEXa usb disconnects, fast work queue restart and so on
* openwrt – some compile optimizations for speed which increased image size a bit
* openwrt – dhcp client added finally:)
* openwrt updated to r40449

After upgrading my 3020 to this version - while keeping my configuration - my miner didn't work. It turned out that I manually had to enter the new HEX3A3 settings in the admin.

Yes you need alway to do that when you keep your settings.
Can you share you impressions about this build?

It was the 1st time that I experienced this, so I thought it was worth sharing
Until now it's running stable as expected, no problems at all.

That is what I am observing also
Thank you and happy mining

hi marto, can you check rma NFMZRIWNA. i only got 1 unit back when i sent 2 and now the returned unit has blown, nice puff of blue smoke.

apart from this minor issue my experience with technobit has been good, everything delivered promptly and good communication, looking forward to more orders.

any update here marto? would like to order a 3rd gen avalon but would also like a response to this case, thanks.

[marto74]

you have PM

Hi Marto,

Could You check what is going on with order ref: QDJJUNUDZ?
Order placed 2014-02-15 and chips delivered to You 21.02.2014 or 18.03.2014 depending which delivery date is correct (http://www.trackitonline.ru/ RR085887460FI to Bulgaria).


Thanks,
Tmu

My experience has been good compared to other suppliers and i have had a GOOD experience of others believe me, lost money in the process. Technobits are good designed products, just as usual pricing could be a bit more helpful but i suppose its difficults with smallma rgins. also 8 months is short time for a company to be perfect so in fairness overall good. Smiley

I would like to by more of their products, if they had on board firmware and a lan port,that would be fantastic, something for the next board perhaps. Wink

+1 Smiley
Something like Technobit board and tplink in a box Wink
Apart of the jokes I am very happy Technobit customer
+1 for marto and CO

Please don't, that way every miner needs a network connection. i like it this way, just 1 usb hub for many miners.

We are finishing our design for our first Scrypt mining board

Specs
8  A2 terminator chip board
Hash rate - about 14  Mh/s  SCRYPT overclocked in turbo mode
16 bit PIC controller
6 line power suply
Voltage controled by command in the software/firmware
USB connector
2 x 6 pin PCI-e power conectors @ 12 V
power consumtion 150-200 W
2 side heatsinks and fans

There will be also a 4 chip version

sorry we missed it.
We hava holydays here until 6-th of may.
Your miners will be shipped on 7-th

As always, great work Marto.

This one Will work with the tp-link ?

[marto74]

Yes,
also there will be a 4 chip version too

That's quite impressive for the footprint of these boards. Will they be running the huge heatsink like on the 8A1 or a moderate one like the 16B?

I think a moderate one will be enough. In my understanding heatsink size is proportional to power consumption
How ever the bigger is always better option but expensive also

Nice marto. Now i wonder about chip cooling.

HI,

For some reason one of my hex16A(1) is recognised as hex16c by mr3020.
I have 2 pcs hex16A and 2 pcs hex16c connected to mr3020.
mr3020 is seeing 1 pc hex16A and 3 pcs hex16c one of hex16c (hex16A)  has 100% HW errors.

Config is: Handle USB detect errors as (Default: hexA)| hexA

Is there some kind of firmware on board and can I flash new firmware?
