Hi, I'm new to this forum, also I bought a 1Th/s miner on Saturday, and ever since its speed has been fluctuating allot, while I also have 864 Hardware errors now, and going up.
I'm wondering if its a firmware error, its a ASIC miner running via a raspberry Pi, i've yet to find out the model number and make etc.

900 hardware errors for 17k accepted shares is nothing to be concerned about. All asic miners produce hardware errors and your rate is low.

Are you sure it will be fine? I mean the miner also fluctuates allot from 800Gh/s to 1022Gh/s. Also what do the hardware errors mean, and like can you find out what it is?
one more thing is, when I plug a screen into the Raspberry Pi while its booting and is mining, it gives out random numbers. saying " ip 5 6 7 8 "
Which clearly isn't an ip. Because the one I use is 192.168.0.53

ckolivas is right the HW errors are a very small amount shown, noting to worry about.  Are why are you plugging in a screen in during mining?  Is it a old one with screen or are you trying to add one to a newer dragon?

Well its a Dragon 1Th/s Miner, the one with the tiny screen on the front. although the person who made the software for the Raspberry Pi didn't enable the screen, which personally really irritates me when trying to find the ip.

try to set your difficulty in miner to 512 or 1024 but i'd suggest 512 and it should improve in speeds & hw errors.

I also have some of these miners, do anybody knows how to solve the socket:0 error when checking for miners stats?

Only one of my miners is doing this after i moved from a place to another.

Thanks.

864 HE errors isn't much at all for that number of accepted shares. As long as HW errors are under 5% you shouldn't worry.
