I have to units with Avalon modules that I am connecting to two Raspberry Pi. I've made the exact same configurations of the two Raspberry Pi but on one of them I get the error below when I am trying to run cgminer like this:

cgminer --config /root/cgminer/cgminer/cgminer.conf --lowmem --avalon-options 115200:16:10:12:1400:55 --avalon-cutoff 60 --avalon-auto

The ribbon cable on the right... Mine is colored.. It just looks like a IDE cable.  Is that what it is?

Does anyone know where to get a replacement data cable for a Gen 2 220 Ghs Avalon?  The one I received has broken wires.

Any advice would be appreciated.....

what cable you need ?

Need OpenWRT firmware for TP-link MR3020. with installed cgminer for avalon.
I found only cgminer for HEX16
Can anyone help?

MR3020 is WR703N with case and thats all - but firmware is incompatible

Hi I have also problem with TP link 703N, I can not connect via ssh or telnet. My tp link went down after power down and now is in fail safe mode blinking blue light noting reset or power u, down can not help him.
Does someone know can I use other device because I have only this device to buy in my county:
I don't know if FPGA support this...can someone knows?

OR I have riff jtag box, does someone have picture how to connect riff box with tp link 703n chip directly via cabels, I can not find anywhere!?

This is the solution

anyone can supply me with a picture of the controller board with cables properly plugged in?

I reassembled the avalon after a thorough cleaning and i forgot which port is meant for the temperature sensor.

now it;s making the fans run excessively fast even though I set the temperature cutoff at 52C (it's running at 49C) and 40-100 percent fan speed, it's running at 60% fan speed

Avalon's need to be kept cool at all times, if you have cold room in your house you should put them there. As they get hotter the fans need to kick up to cool them down or you risk blowing the circuits up. Realistically they belong in a co-location full-time.

The Avalons are nice for a big deployment since they're ready to go, but price wise they're not competitive. They need to be in the 2BTC range to compare to the AM units.

You are completely right. Other reseller of the avalon second gen chip were manufacturing 200GH units in a  competitive price range to ant miners were they not? My guess is if a third party can do this, then so can avalon

iirc the wiki recommends to not flash via the command line.
telnet in:

Code:
telnet 192.168.1.1 -l root
mount_root
mtd -r erase rootfs_data

now you should be able to get the web gui at 192.168.0.100 again.

I went and did something stupid I guess because my box will not respond. I re-flashed the box and forgot to unchecked the settings box. I could not reach the box and it would not ping. I did a reset of the board, changed my nic and plugged  the miner into my notebook. Still no ping. Powered down and back up still no ping. It just sits there in idle mode...yellow and green leds lit and a slow 1 sec. pulse coming from the on-board nic.

Is there a way to force flash these things without using the web interface? Googled a for a while but did not find the answer.

Thanks ahead of time for any info or
a finger point in the right direction...

search this thread for "failsafe".



Ok...looks like I am in? I can telnet into the box It says at top to use passwd to set password. I followed this site http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/generic.failsafe. But it just stays in failsafe mode.
I bounce the box but it just stays at 192.168.1.1 and I can telnet and SSH to it. So I downloaded the latest avalon firmware, but I am not a linux guy...is it possible to flash the firmware using the .bin file from a telnet or ssh session? I don't have a lot of coin but am willing to send a C note to whoever can work me through getting this this back online and hashing. Please Pm me so we do not clutter this thread.

Thanks

Very cool.
Now if they can deliver in a timely manner it will be great.

Wow did you guys see this??

Avalon is making new 2U 300GH/s systems?

Hashing speed and power usage:
 315GH/s, 1020W@220V in normal mode.
 210GH/s, 420W@220V in ECO mode.


Very similar spec to an Antminer with OC when in eco mode, both 55nm chip

things are going to get competitive around here
