This is where Avalon support stands out. Well done by Block C. Although, 1 thing I don't think is right is that Avalon 6 advertise the Hash rate at 3.5 to 3.65TH everywhere but most will only get between 3.2 to 3.4TH unless they risk it via Over volting to get the 3.7-3.9TH and void warranty. If this was the case with the S7, everyone would be bitching and asking for compensation. Why is no one asking for compensation for the Avalon 6? My brother in law is not impress with Avalon 6 and after seeing this post, he stops trying to get a PSU for the over volting so he's just basically have a weak 3.2TH system. 300GH missing is almost 10% difference!
well I have paid for the replacement board. I am awaiting the parts.
The replacement board which I was given a decent discount.
Plus one doa blue adpater which should be free as It arrived doa.
Once parts arrive I will post._____________________

Hey Philipma1957-
I know you don't normally perform software updates unless it fixes something from your posts in other threads, but was wondering if you had upgraded your Ras Pi to the latest image? (openwrt-brcm2708-bcm2708-sdcard-vfat-ext4.img 25-Dec-2015 03:37 76M)
Only reason I ask is I'm using Jabber/Finksy BB also, and the volts on the GUI read 11.8~11.9 now no matter what PSU I use. I have 32 DPS-2000BB PSUs and the same ones that I received a readout of 12.1~12.2 on the GUI before the update, now show 11.8~11.9. So I'm wondering if the software is reading low on the volts now? Instead of you running at 12.6, you could of actually been running a lot higher...
Just a thought from my observations. The LCD screen on my PSUs right now reads 12.35, but GUI shows 11.8
no stock 11-20 or so firmware.
my lcd screen reads 12.75 volts my gui read 12.4 to 12.7 on the three different avalon's
BTW the back probe at the avalon side all read about 12.5 volts as the voltage drops with the draw._____________________________

I want to ask a question.I have connected my avolon miners but I have overloaded a line.The PSUs are burnt out and also a miner.Miner shows that boards do not have burnt chips but do not hash.What is the not hashing situation?Is it because of rasberry pi or is there a smd on the card?
If this not the appropriate topic pls send me a pm and I can delete my message.

on the support board I could try to troubleshoot what is wrong.This is where Avalon support stands out. Well done by Block C. Although, 1 thing I don't think is right is that Avalon 6 advertise the Hash rate at 3.5 to 3.65TH everywhere but most will only get between 3.2 to 3.4TH unless they risk it via Over volting to get the 3.7-3.9TH and void warranty.

You can get in the 3.2 to 3.4 area with 11.9. I bought an EVGA atx just so I was using same PSU's on both miners (I like to be tidy). But they run 11.9-12.1 all seems to depend. Looking back I should have got some nice server ones instead.
Likely if you are using the "12V DC ±0.2V" I think you could get the 3.5T side of things around the 12.2 side. But as everyone has seen you should not go above that.
Is there a particular thing to do, to get 3.2 to 3.4THs? I get wildly different temps and different hashrate and no where near 3.4THs. Is it a overvolt thing only? I'm on ATX psu but i usually get 12.1v at the ui;
I see "smartspeed" is on, not sure if i need to do manual tuning or something?
I am not sure what your question is. the screen shot above is showing 3.5th is that you?
