Here is how I tune my chips manually:

- SSH into Pi (login "pi" password "raspberry").
- type "nano /run/shm/.stat.log"
- I'll edit the file and when done, press Ctrl+X
- It will ask "Save modified buffer" and I press Y as in yes.
- Now it says "File Name to Write: /run/shm/.stat.log". Just erase the whole file name with backspace and type "/opt/bitfury/best.cnf" and hit Enter.
- type "sudo reboot"



what exactly did you edit?

"2   AIfDSo   55   1.432   1.596   100   1   0   0   151   [0:1]   227   6 6 6 6 6 7 6 7 7 7 6 6 6 6 6 6    0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0" 

--- good chip

"14   aifdso   54   0.000   0.000   0   0   0   0   0   [0:D]   756   0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0    0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 "

--- bad chip

"31   AIfDSo   52   0.616   1.216   43   39   0   0   115   [4:E]   482   3 2 2 3 2 2 1 4 4 3 4 3 3 3 2 2    2 3 3 2 3 3 4 1 1 3 2 2 2 2 3 3"

--- whats wrong with him?

aaah now I see! I have to enter the whole directory for "File Name to Write"!

Thank you MXRider and -Redacted-!!

Now I can play around with the values!

Dani I hope you'll be able to solve the problem soon!

Ok now, noob alarm!  I'm here  Grin
I'm not good with ssh, so I ask you guys if I'm doing this right:

I login as pi, go to the stat.log file and edit it with "pico .stat.log". I don't have write permission when editing it. Did I do ok so far?

Now I see 3 chips that are shut down:

11      AIfDSo  0  
16      AIfDSo  0  
20      AIfDSo  0

and I set that to a(=Autotune off) 54(=Speed)

11      aIfDSo  54
16      aIfDSo  54
20      aIfDSo  54

Now I want to save the file to /opt/bitfury/best.cnf

I press Ctrl+X, and it asks me if I want to save the file. I change the name to best.cnf

Ok now the embarassing question: How can I save it in the right directory?.... yes I'm really that bad at it.

After that I would just restart the miner and the chips should come to life?

Thank you for helping me out!

change the file name to /opt/bitfury/best.cnf

The chips may or may not come back to life.  Depends.

Looks like autotune is shutting down chips on the last board. You have to turn off the autotune for chips 33-48 (only the ones with "0")

Try changing every "AIfDSo 0" to "aIfDSo 54". Capital A means autotune is ON and normal a means it's OFF. Reboot and you should see at least 19 GH/s.

.putstat.log is showing if you have network problems. That could slow down the miner. In this case, you do not have anything wrong with you connection.

Thanks. I set it to aIfDSo 54, like you said, but when I save it to /opt/bitfury/best.cnf and reboot, /run/shm/.stat.log still reports a 0 instead of 54, isn't that odd?

Anyhow, I'm back to 50gh and still a lot of dead chips. Any other chance? Punin any idea?

Edit:
It's strange, I get 42gh now (didnt change anything, no fans working btw), admin panels says:
1: 24.138GH/s
Bank 2
5: 12.312GH/s
Bank 3
9: 6.514GH/s

Edit2:
5 minutes passed, now:
1: 23.322GH/s
Bank 2
5: 9.363GH/s
Bank 3
9: 6.5GH/s

39gh now.. is it supposed to go up and down in speed all the time?

No, not that much.

Could you post another picture (or a link to that picture) of the .stat.log -file. I'm pretty sure you have autotune on and several chips are turned off.

Sorry for the delay guys.. Lot's of things happening here..

Here are photos of some of the soldering issues we've encountered. Please check your boards!

Dani:

SSH into your RasPi and check what /run/shm/.stat.log says. I'm pretty sure half of the chips (rows 33 to 48) are turned off. When a chip is turned off, it will look like this "xx AIfDSo 0". Change them to "xx AIfDSo 54" and save the file to /opt/bitfury/best.cnf.

Do a reboot and report back here. I would also like to know what /run/shm/.putstat.log says.

+1 you were right, 12 from board 3 were turned off, 1 from board 3 as well.



Turned them on and sudo reboot; 31gh/s now, slowly ramping up and going down.. keeps rising about less than 1gh per minute, not sure this will go up to 50+ again. Speed on every board dropped, the last board the msot (2gh).
/run/shm/.putstat.log turned the chips on, still 54, but zero hasrate. Also the last two entries are "0000000" all over for the turned off chips. Hm..

your help is very much appreciated, thank you! Smiley

putstat.log reports now (I put spaces here, because the messageboard somehow changes it to a link):

1 3305 172 171 [ 0] http:// 127.0.0.1:8332/

1 3260 142 141 [2]http://127.0.0.1:8334/

Edit: didnt get higher than 34gh. I turned the same chips off again, didnt change anything, 30gh now.

Here is what putstat.log reports now, I mentioned a lot of errors now:

Got my bitfury today, I was super excited. Got it up and running, no problems. I ordered 2 starter kits and received 2 m-boards, 2 raspberry pis, 3(!) SD Cards (thank you, though it's a mistake I think) and 3 h-boards. Within the first 60 seconds I scored 71gh/s and was quite happy, but after changing the pool settings I was only seeing 50gh, it went up to 56 and kept falling down. Currently I rund at Noncerate: 48.533GH/s according to webinterface and 46.31gh/s according to 256s eligius pool. (http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/14cbUKDLpZPJUMfr3DcKWZXmiaQRYpaZbd if anyone cares Smiley ). Average 3 hours is 46.84gh/s, which seems pretty low.

here are some pics for you guys!







I put the slowest h-board to C-1, but it didnt seem to improve. So right now I'm a sad panda, I feel like the only one who got less power than everyone else :/

Edit: Totally forgot to thank punin and bitfury and everyone else involved for this hardware, I hope I'll be able to tune the speed to where it should be Smiley

Edit2: I saw the first time (when the slowest hboard was connected at B1) the slow hboard hashing at 12gh, now its down to 6. The other two are more or less hashing constantly, but the third is giving me a hard time :/

Looks like you europeans lucked out this time.

Metabank will most likely be shipping miners 10 to 20% below spec.

USA bitfury starter kits will be single board 25GH delivery.  Remains to be seen if they are 25GH or "25GH" Smiley

Got my Starter Kit also and hashing 41-42GH  Smiley

Delivery was few days overdue, I'm not complaining at all, and compensation for not hitting the target of 25 GH is 16 GH as a gift! Chrismas came early this year  Kiss

This is how business is done right! Others can try and learn from this!  Cool

What do you mean by "tuning autotune off and hand tuning..." ?

Can you describe what you did?

Thanks Isokivi,

I had removed my message since I saw you posted a link just after my question Smiley
