4-pack with controller is now an option for BTCGarden miners.

My own follow-up here.
Ordered two AMV1s a day or so before 4th of July. They were waiting for me Monday. Got them Wednesday (stupid work and UPS hours) and they're both up and running. Took a little fiddling to get things going but that was largely due to my own network layout and just not being familiar with the devices.

Overall, pretty happy!


Thanks for your feedback! We know how important it is for miners to get their equipment up and running as quickly as possible. All orders are shipped within 24hrs of payment.

CrazyGuy has been a great help in troubleshooting and let's not forget to mention the fast shipping times and low prices.
BZ!

Sorry, I'm a bit disoriented with the pics. Easiest way to remember things is right side of the board always connects to the controller, left side to the slave. Red wire is always on the right.

First off, if I sent you an early revision that uses the pcie 6pin to 2x 3 pin, make sure you are only powering one board on one pcie 6pin. In other words, connect the 3 pins from left to right, not top to bottom. Also, make extra sure your ribbon cables are lined up exactly on the pins. Its easy to accidentally plug them in 1 to the left or right, especially if I sent you rpi data cables modified for blades.

1) Configure interface for 1 board.
2) Connect the rpi to the right side of 1 board. Leave the left side open. Turn it on and make sure it hashes
3) If it doesn't, power off and move to the next board. Repeat until you find a board that hashes.
4) Once you have 155gh going, connect a ribbon cable to the left side of the hashing board and the right side of the next board in line. Power on and change board count to 2. Make sure you get to 310gh.
5) Repeat steps, increasing the board count until you have all boards hashing.



Followed the steps. Still nothing. Not even a hint! Frustrated beyond belief right now!
4+ hours I have into ADDING a second AM-V1 miner and getting no where...actually I am getting BACKWARDS as now my 1st AM-V1 miner no longer hashes like it was earlier today.

Check your connections to the raspberry pi. There's no way all 4 blades just up and died. It's most likely an issue with one of the data cables. switch them out. Try a different power supply. Concentrate on getting one blade to work, then we can go from there.


The R-Pi unit I got with my 1st AM-V1 is dead...swapped out with a spare I just got in the mail and BOTH miners are working now, together even.

Check your DNS and subnet .. Default for mine image was to 255.255.0.0 I changed it to 255.255.255.0 and DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and it started to mine.

Also make sure under I think pool settings you set the right amount of modules, my default was 8 when I had 4.

Got my 2nd unit today. Sadly it won't mine...I first attempted to daisy chain it to my 1st unit, making sure to change the blade quantity in the config but get nothing. I have tried reversing the order of the wires (rpi on top vs bottom) but still nothing. I am now trying to test each unit individually but neither unit will mine now.

I am now dead in the water with NO miners hashing  Cry

Any suggestions?

Can you send me a picture of your connections?

Here ya go...(I will remove these later just in-case I have something wired incorrectly-don't want others to do the same)

That's the first thing I checked

What application are you using to format the card?

Also, make sure you didn't accidentally flip the write-protect switch on your SD card.


^^^THIS!!!


Caused me MANY headaches awhile back when troubleshooting my 3d printer, lol

Has anyone been able to format the SD card after putting that RPi img on it.  It seems like there are a couple read only files on the img that are keeping me from formating.

0 out the disk using a program like ActiveKillDisk, or nuke the partitions and start from scrap. I dont take no "read only" crap Tongue

Quick shipping! Just got notification that my package ordered just before the 4th already arrived...
Now I just have to see if I can make it to the mailbox before they close for the day (or grab them first thing tomorrow...)
