I can confirm that beeps are not only for fan/temp issues, have a look at my stats you can see that there is no issue with that, but I can simulate a beep by simply shutting down my router. I think a beep alarm means something is wrong. I can possibly help you with this issue if you want to iron-it out. PM me if you want with a phone number. Good day, Louis
p.s. would be curious to compare your stats with mine, mostly the HW % values (my two columns follwing _HW)
Topic: Antminer S7 stops mining - has steady green light (Read 1223 times)
Thanks for the reply...
So are you sure the beeping is ONLY for fans & heat ?
They seem to beep when my internet goes down too.
As for the cables, they are all brand new, same length cat6
Anyway - why would the miner become unreachable over the LAN? It's like it has crashed.
[ i will try what you suggested about switching a cable over after it crashes - but i'll have to wait until it happens again - but it seems more like it has crashed, i'm considering updating the firmware but worried i might mess it up]
i can't believe they removed the option to turn off the beeps from the S5 software ?!!! whY?

I have 5 S7's and they all seem to working fine, but occasionally one will just stop hashing and become un-reachable on the Network.
When this happens it will have a steady green light.
Could this be caused by my network connection? If so, how can I fix this? It doesn't seem right that a dropout of the network should cause the miner to just stop completely.
My internet is just ADSL and does drop out quite a lot, so I am guessing this has something to do with it - but then why would only 1 miner stop and the others still working?
Any ideas?
Also the beeping is driving me insane. Every time there is a small dropout of my internet they all start beeping.
There is no way to turn it off in the 'Miner Configuration' as there apparently was on the S5 - which is really weird.
I already tried to glue-gun one of the miner's beeper - which was a real hassle (had to take the whole control board apart) - surely there is a scrypting way to disable it?
Any help on either of these 2 issues would be awesome. Thanks !

the beeping is so that you check for fans and over heating.
as to why one drops easy and the others don't
how do they connect?
are five cat 6 wires all the same length make model into 1 switch into your adsl?
if true and wire one is the one attached to your 'bad' s-7 remove wire one one both ends the s-7 end and the switch end. leave it aside.
take wire two from the second s-7 just on the s-7 end pull it out and plug into the 'bad' s-7 turn off the wire free s-7 number two.
if the 'bad' s-7 now works perfectly it was not the s-7.
It could be
the wire
the jack on the switch
or your adsl likes up to four units.
