In my cgminer screen (SSH) I see the following errors:

BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error
BTM0: invalid nonce - HW error

What does this mean?

Hi,

Before I bother to look into it has anyone had the issue of the Mining pool Configuration details going to defaults on reboot?
In fact nothing seems to be able to be saved from the miner configuration pages. Had a quick check on SSH to see if I could write to any files also and no luck their either.

Any ideas?

 Huh

Upgrade to newest firmware

With this firmware, you can change the name of the miner on the LCD.

SSH to miner
go to /config
edit file "usr_defined_lcd"
replace AntMiner S2 with the new name
reboot
enjoy  Grin

Awesome!

Now, does anyone know how to make a 1-line ascii art ant? Or any other cool ascii art to display on the lcd? What characters are allowed? d[o_o]b

Oh crap, my batch 2 AntMiner S2 stopped working today, after 3 months of solid service.

We had a power outage, and after the power came back on the S2 was "dead". It wouldn't power on at all. I replaced the Enermax 1000W PSU with a Corsair AX1200i and the unit now powers up, but nothing shows on the LED screen and the unit doesn't register on the network. I know what the MAC address of the unit is and it doesn't show up on the network. I have tried two different micro-SD cards, neither of them work.

Not happy.  Sent an email to Bitmain, hopefully they can help me out.
I received a new controller board from Bitmain, installed it, and my S2 is working now. Whew!

Funny thing, the Enermax 1000W PSU will not power up the S2 any more, I tried.  I have swapped the Enermax for a Corsair AX1200i to get the S2 running. Bizarrely the Enermax still works on my S1!  Strange that it will power the S1, but not the S2 any longer, even though it previously powered the S2 for two months straight (correction to my previous post, two months of solid service, not three).

A lesson for me out of this: the Enermax PSU acts differently from all my other PSUs. After a power outage, it won't come back on immediately (I assume this is only if it has been under full load), it seems to want to wait for quite a few minutes before it will power on again.  Whereas all my other PSUs turn on immediately after a power outage.  I have this feeling that if I had just left my S2 alone after the power outage, everything would have been ok - the Enermax would have eventually powered up in its own time.

The PSU is probably dying a slow death due to being overworked.

Enermax PSUs are shitty. I have a ton of power supplies and all the Enermax died. They are gold rating as well.

Mine are working flawlessy for now. Room temperature where them are working is very high?

S2 price -  1820 USD ( 3.188 BTC ) - $400 = 1420 now...
I think bitmain try to sell all S2 before they launch S3.
any news about shipping ?
