Anyone here tried to hook up two of the stock S5 fans in series so they run at 6V instead of 12V to reduce noise?
Just wondering if it will start at 6V or do I need to wire a potentoresistor.

I mine in kano.is. My Antminer S5 seems to drop other board with DDOSes and needs a reboot to get that board back online. Is it normal for Antminer S5?
Nope it does not happen to me on my S5. but then again not every S5 is the same if it were that would be so nice.

https://www.bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020160105102242316JqapyMif0705
or can they be used on S7 batch 5 with original beagle board and controller ? if so what are the changes ?

Ok I have gone back in the thread & understood the question now...
The linked to files are an image suitable for writing to an SD card with the tool in the second link. This gets a new or corrupted BB going so that you can then flash the correct firmware update for your version of S7. So only needed if you have a corrupted or New BB.

Ah I see thanks for clarifying that I cant understand that dam Chinese !
thanks again rich.

I don't want to buy beagle board or controller board I just want to know if its for the new beagles/controller boards the have on there site and can it be used on the old ones I have batch 5 ?
The BB is good for all Batches of S7, also S5, S5+, S4 & S4+

Its just a BBB, which is used across all latest Antminers, but the thing is, the unique thing you need to turn the BBB into a controller is the daughter board, the unique thing to each miner.
Its also hard to tell which portion of the controller died. I guess having a spare would not hurt, but by itself, will not run any miners.
On the page itself it says that it is not included (The unique portion of each miner controller); "IO board doesn't included." Quoted exactly as Bitmain wrote it in their disclaimer.
No my S7 works fine I was just wondering will that firmware work in the beagle/daughter that's already in there I have batch 5 which is 600mhz.
and if it does what are there firmware fixes ??
Oh i see. Nobody really knows what the "fixes" does, nothing before or after seem to have visible change so since they seem to be very minor, changing firmware is generally considered a no go.
For which firmware to get, you have to put the right one in. If you put which miner and batch information in the order detail, they will give you the right firmware for it.

About HW error rate. How to interpret is? What is too high rate?
If ran with good a PSU at stock setting, you should be pretty much at 0. If you OC a lot you might get anywhere from 0.0001% to 0.05% its all good, its merely an indication.
You could get 1% and it would only indicate that the PSU's volt output is sagging a bit or that the OC is too high (not a danger, but lower efficiency) its not directly a problem in itself. Simply see what gives you the best hashrate. If you OC. If you don't, not getting near 0 might mean your PSU aren't very good.
I get 1.32TH/s for 400 freq. 1.27 for 387freq.
I'm overclocking. So as long as my hashrate increases, I don't need to worry about HW error percentage?
Thats mostly it. If your HWE suddenly jump to 1%, then its likely the PSU is dropping voltage output when you raise consumption, at that point its probably best to bring it down one step even though running it a 1% may be acceptable.
However when the HWE% start going up by such step for me, the actual hashrate dropped. So just something to keep in mind. A HW itself does not cause damage to the hardware.

without editing the sd card image is there any way to start a script at startup?
i know if you save the script to the /config folder it doesnt get erased when you reboot, but anything i put in the init.d does.

Hello,
today, one of my S5s have stopped hashing, and after rebooting it, i have one issue, unit hashes ok but I have lost temp readings.
Anyone had similar issues?
Temps vere around 40 celsius, and PSU is 1200W Cooler Master powering only 1 S5 unit via 4 PCI Lanes.
Thanks in advance

I have 3 S5's all running at 400 with a RM1000 power supply
Power at wall 666 watt
Your fans are spinning very slow, are you keeping the unit outside ?
I place them on a S1 cool rib. Ambiant temp is 23c

Assuming there is a failure of some sort in the last stage pair, then the worst it can be is that the core has gone SC, if it was OC then nothing would be working. This will have pushed up the core voltage on the other chips slightly but only a small amount. Is the red led on that board still working?
Rich
Rich
I dont know what SC is, OC could be... overcurrent? Anyhow, it is hashing normally-ish (75gh/s loss), the red led seem dead. I never really paid attention before but right now its right blade's led does not seem to be on.
Whats the diagnostic, doctor?
Short Circuit, Open Circuit, referring to the chips being in a string from a power point of view. So if you have an OC chip none of them will work, if SC then the rest of the chain is powered at a slightly higher voltage so it might work, which yours is. The fact that the red led is not on means there is a fault in the IO (In Out
circuitry in one of the final pair of chips.Bottom line is that probably there is a fault in one of the final pair of chips, but that it is not preventing the rest of the chain from working. May not be a SC core, could just be a fault in the IO signal side of the chip.
However although I have a fair understanding of the circuit treat the above with a pinch of salt as so far I have not been able to repair my board with the last 4 chips not working....
Rich
So does a dead ASIC cause this or could it be like a bad resistor/capacitor ? Are there any guides on here where somebody successfully repaired their S5? I've reballed /replaced many IC before in the past, the BM1384 seems like it would be very simple to swap since its fairly large compared to most other mobile IC's i had to replace in the past.
There is not much to go wrong on each of the stages. A big decoupling capacitor , the level shifting components between the stages, and the 1.8V Low Drop Out regulator. A few measurements are needed to confirm that chip failure is the most likely problem, then just the job of robbing a replacement chip from another board.
As I said I have not yet successfully repaired mine and the next job on the list is to make an ASIC test jig so that I can check the chip I remove before using it as a replacement.
If I ever get this done I will write it up along with a trouble shooting guide. However at this point I feel that my knowledge is just in theory rather than practice.
I have found removing and replacing the chips difficult with the IR rework station I have. Because of the heatsinking effect from the copper areas on the board they need a lot of heat, and I am worried I am damaging the chips. I suspect I need a more expensive device than the one I am using
Rich
I see. Hopefully its just a fluke. The apartment's voltage seem to go up and down a bit, i suspect because of the load. I'm pretty much wondering if its an isolated incident.
