I used the run from sd card install method on all my antminers. Besides moving the jumper on the control board (which is a pain in the ass to reach on the s9) it is very easy and you can revert right back just by moving the jumper back and removing the sd card.

Braiins OS+ does amazing things for an s9. The s9 controller is the same as an R4. So I installed the braiins os+ and it does a good job improving efficiency for r4 too.

Awesome thanks, I'll check it out. Is it fairy simple to install? I have pretty much zero knowlege of ASIC miners after coming from GPU mining.

Hello,

Just seeing if anyone is still runnings their R4 and should I update anything or just keep things the way they are seen as it is still working? Would be nice if I could increase the efficiency even if it means a lower hashrate.

Heres the first part of the kernal log.

Code:

Machine: Altera SOCFPGA, model: Altera SOCFPGA Cyclone V

Memory: 1008MB = 1008MB total

Mine is:

Code:

Machine model: Xilinx Zynq
...
Memory: 884148K/1032192K available

We both have 1024 mb of ram...

Well that explains why the AB firmware won’t install for zachj00, it’s only compatible with the Xilinx boards. I wasn’t sure if he could get the 2017-04-28 FW, so was checking to see if his board didn’t have the requisite 512 or 1024 mb of ram.

Zach, can you tell us exactly what your R4 overview page says for your File System Version? I’m curious if you’re on a different 2017 FW that BM no longer allows us to download.

Bitmain is showing both Antminer-R4-all-201704270142-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz and Antminer-R4-all-201704280718-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz, but the date for "file system version" seems close enough... I wonder why Bitmain chose to leave both online if April 28 fixes "a bug of memory leak" from April 27?

BTW: My Hardware Version is 30.0.1.3

I see in the description and the manual for the APW5 that there is supposed to be an ability for the user to “change output lines and fine-tune the output voltage.” Any ideas on how to adjust the output voltage? Here’s what the inside of one of my APW5’s looks like:

https://i.imgur.com/OiRz1qH.png

sure there is a term pot on the upper right side.

but I think you will not get it to go to 18 volts

maybe to 16

also protect the negative and positive cables they are a short danger

Is that pot something I can adjust while the PSU is powered?

I would be very careful doing it powered up.

That unit has lots of power in it. It has short a short hazard in the six power points.

You could mod it drill a hole with access to the pot and mount a nylon sleeve

https://www.amazon.com/Electronics-Salon-Spacer-Assortment-Screws-Plastic/dp/B014KISXAG/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?

then the screwdriver can not hit anything but the pot.

Is it possible you're one of the few with an incompatible control board? Can you post the start up sequence from the kernel log? Curious if you have neither 512 or 1024 mb like mentioned in the FW title.

Also, check and see if your control board says XILINX on it. If not, the AB FW is incompatible with your board.

I upgraded to the 2017 firmware and then tried the 2018 firmware after and I get an instant error message saying its the wrong file type or something along the lines of that. I know the R4s can be a bit fragile and every time i try to upgrade my board temps go crazy and it scares me a bit. It takes my R4 a few minutes before the fan really starts spinning every restart and the chip readings will hit the 90s. I think ill just keep the adjustable MHz version for now. I like to keep it on the lowest setting to keep board temps to a minimum.

Is it possible you're one of the few with an incompatible control board? Can you post the start up sequence from the kernel log? Curious if you have neither 512 or 1024 mb like mentioned in the FW title.

Also, check and see if your control board says XILINX on it. If not, the AB FW is incompatible with your board.

If you are worried why don't you let the fan blow at 100%? That's how mine has always been running. With the older firmware i would sometimes see crazy temperatures (max i saw was 120) but with the newer firmware 74 is the max i have seen so far, and instead of two readings you get 4, it seems far more accurate than before. Here look:

I upgraded that R4 from 2016 firmware to 2017 and then to 2018 without any errors. Do check the file integrity of your 2018 firmware download.

I have the version 1.1, 8.6 THs model. I only run it at 550 MHz though so I just say its 7.9 THs

Its says my Kernel is 2016 and my file system is 2017.

Are you sure you downloaded the files correctly? Please verify your downloaded files integrity:

And make sure you use firefox or chromium based browsers.

If your file system is from 2017, it might mean you already have the UBI firmware. Did you not remember ever upgrading the firmware? In that case, all you need is the 2018 update.

Just in case copy and paste your file system version (maybe the month matters).
