Talking about that... my chain 1 goes offline after about 1-2 days running, sometimes in a matter of few hours. GUI will be reporting as if nothing wrong. You'll only notice when your hash rate at pool end drops. You can also look into the casing via the fans, you should be able to see 4 red leds if all chains are running. Was thinking of taking the S4 to a host but with me constantly having to look to see if there is 4 red leds, not going to be possible. Plus having to hard reset when you get "Hugs & Kisses".. makes it even more impossible to have the S4 hosted.

Could it be a firmware issue or hardware?

Hard to tell unfortunately, I'll check to see if its a known bug.

Hi everyone,
i have got a strange problem with my Antminer S4 batch2, i listed founded problems:
1-my S4's has different connections with FPGA controller, one of them is top left hash board connected to J7, other s4 same board is connected to J6. this is very strange or poor assembly.
2-this J7 connector is going to the first hash board i think, but other hash boards red led is off except this J7 connected board led blink. 5 minutes waiting then this board getting hot and another five minutes all boards leds are on. then all of them is hot but THERE IS NO ETHERNET CONNECTION. Huh

3-i worried power comp. and i changed 0720 to 0700 then i measured all hash boards voltages on 1500uF/2,5V capacitor.. wouuwww THERE WAS A PROBLEM! because we can never change 1 hash board's (j7 connected) voltage. this is allways 0750V. than i read confidential pdf of CSD95372B and TPS53641 this is i2c controlled buck converter and this is controlled by pic12f1822 on every hash board. So this 0,750 Volt i measured is over voltage protection limit.
i am an electronic engineer by the way.

I ASK TO BITMAINTECH,
WHY OUR HASH BOARDS HASHING SOMETHING STANDALONE (or why warming up) AND WHY 3 HASH BOARDS VOLTAGE CONFIGURABLE BUT 1 IS NOT ?

thanks, any ideas ?

Gotta love natural Canadian cooling. Grin

And it isn't even winter yet. If you're wondering, temps are showing 0 because S4's temp sensors don't register below 20c.

Your HW Error is rather high.. and do you realise you have have a X on one of the chips?

Hard reset for that. I had one and a soft reset just makes it worse Tongue

You guys are lucky.

I'm in Singapore and my chips are running between 58-63C depending of the time of the day....

OK so my PM inbox has been flooded with requests for free S4 coupons, and everyone who has requested one up until this point either has or will receive one. BITMAIN sent out TONS of coupons to everyone who has ever purchased a product from there. At this point, it's becoming a little time consuming to send out these coupons for free, so if you would like a coupon, I would like to request atleast a .005 BTC donation (currently less than $2 USD, a lot less than the $125 that the other guy was asking Wink

)to my BTC address for my time. Keep this in mind if you PM me from this point forward.

Donation address: 13PbqvqdcEF1NZ4SYqMri3GbW8UFz2kXCF

Heh, Ill offer the same deal myself, or 10/0.02BTC. I imagine there are thousands of these coupons distributed in total.

Keep working with MrGreenHat until he runs out, then hit me up!

I'll make the same offer; I have over 100 of these $400 off coupons, and I'd love for someone to put them to good use. I just bought 2 more S4s today, and I don't think I'll be buying any more for a little while.

PM me with your Bitmain user ID, and I'll provide you with a BTC address to send donations to.

My account says I have 51 coupons for S4, can it be right? 17 for S3+, and 17 for C1. Anyone who can tell me how to extract them individually, maybe I can send you one.

well the month of Dec is coming, temperature will drop so our heating problems will be solved

->I've got a $400 bitcmaintech.com coupon for s4 antminer, im selling it for $125. So you have a $275 discount

No one will buy them. Bitmain gave me only 180 S4 coupon. Can you imagine how much the rest of them were?

I'm in Singapore and my chips are running between 58-63C depending of the time of the day....

Well when I keep my S4's, S2's and S1's in the garage, even if it's around 0C (32F) outside, it's 40C in the garage and 64C in the miners! I really have to make a hole in the wall... some kind of dryer output...

I have to keep my garage door open even in winter (there's snow outside as of today) -- the neighbours look at me with interrogation points in the eyes. I look at them with Bitcoin's B in the eyes.
