How do i set up an A2 mini?

[jbrbcfx]

Hi there, I hope someone can help me.

I bought a new type Innosilicon A2 mini terminator. I am using an 850W PSU. I connected the main PSU plug and the pcie plugs (6pin, the last 2 pins seemed mismatched?) The Pi starts up and lots of lines of text flash up the screen as usual but then it asks for a login and after a few seconds reports "error no A1 board detected". The fans do not run.

If I plug in only the main PSU plug, the fans do run, but the pi reports the same error.

I can access the web interface and have set the ip address etc but I cannot get the unit to mine.

Can anyone help?

Have you managed to start it yet?

When I used my PSU I had to switch the + and - leads because they were reversed. Meaning that I cut the wires from the PSU and soldered them in reverse.
Don't know If this would be the solution in your case, but it is worth looking into.

I have not received conformation that it works on the MINI A2 Terminator but it should.
