How do I tell what version of the firmware I have?
Thanks!

WebUI - Status->Kernel Log. The first line ends with a date, it corresponds to the build date. Firmware date is the filename that bitmain assigned.

Code:

Linux version 3.10.12 (xxl@ubuntu) (gcc version ...snip... #140 Mon Jul 21 17:27:04 CST 2014

so... antMiner_S320140721.bin = July 21, 2014 build.

I got my two ant miner S3's yesterday. Batch 3. They run ok, a little sporadically from high 300's to 450 Ghs. Both stock clocks.

How do I tell what version of the firmware I have? I've looked everywhere in the antminer control panel; must be missing something, but the current version on Bitmain's site is antMiner_S320140721.bin. Is there an easy way to see if I already have that or should upgrade. (I would like to get rid of the sporadic beeps every ten minutes or so!)

Thanks!

I'm not sure how to tell what firmware you have, but I'd go ahead with the upgrade anyway. I upgraded to the 721 firmware and I haven't heard a beep from the thing since.

Sooooo if my B1 S3 runs for an hour without getting any x's on the chip status at 250mhz

With a 502gh Poolside hashrate, drawing 425 watts at the wall from a bronze psu - did I just like hit the lottery of units or something? Or do I need to keep an eye on this thing before I declare it stable.

Also does OCing really void the warranty? does it like set a flag bit somewhere?

well no matter what i try, even putting the s3 in front of an AC, the hash rate drops to about 400 after a few hours, not matter the cooling, the cleaning and re paste, heat sinks on the dc-dc and freq i use.
i need to restart it, usually restarting cgminer gives me back my top hash about about 30mins, than it drops slowly,
anyone know how i can kill and restart cgminer every X amount of minutes. ?

what is the power supply your using for the antminer?

Can you check voltage going to the chips at startup and when the hashrate has dropped?

" 200 12.60 0782 21.3 19
  225 14.18 0882 18.9 17
  250 15.75 0982 17.0 15
  275 17.33 0a82 15.5 14 "

the pattern for 25MHz steps is obvious...in RED ... Grin

Still I did not get how the S1/S2 table values are applicable / usable instead of S3 values... Anybody checking them ... Huh

225MHz - "1185" instead of "0882"...
250MHz - "1386" instead of "0982"...

ZiG

i wonder if anyone has dared to try 275mhz yet
