Hi guys,
just a quick feedback for you: the 1500 Platimax PSU installed on my (first batch) Coincraft Desk is dead, is on short-circuit.
Basically the magnetothermic (you know, the over-current protection thing) switches off if I try to connect the cable of my Desk to the wall.
Of course if I shut down the small switch behind the Platimax everything is fine.
Any other of you had the same issue? Do I have to buy a new PSU to keep mining?
Thanks...

Open up each unit and check that all cables are secure. What I found with all my units is the red connector PCB that goes across the top of the modules was slightly disconnected from some modules.
While you're in the machine, be careful about electro-static shock damage - be sure to earth yourself and try not to touch any chip pins or PCB tracers, the static electricity from your hand could fry something. Also make sure the power supply is off and power off at the wall too.

Hi guys! Pls help.
I've just recieved 3 coincraft miners. One 1th/, two 800 gh/s
All of three works fine for onlny one day, till today.
With two of them i just turned it off and when I want turn it on again they started, i can conected to them via lan i see dasbord but it shows 0gh/s speed. On screen also 0gh/s speed:(
I tried many times turn of and turn on and nothing changed:(
Bery similar but different situation with third 1th/s miner. It mined and turn off in night. When I woke up and wanted to turn on it started but after start there is also 0gh/s in screen and i. dashboard.
Pls help and give me any idea and advice what to do?
Is there any hard restart on power suply?
Ps.
I add one thing. i had problems with my electric network and when i turn on too many devices all electrocyty shout down in my house
it could be the backplate, or the sd card, the last one is the power supply issued. I've just recieved 3 coincraft miners. One 1th/, two 800 gh/s

For sd card , get a new one and burn a new software to it.

THAT is show under the Link
edit : btw, the new Firmware shows NO ! HW errors at Setting "Power Safe Ultra" over 1 Day
but lots Errors above Turbo Moderate
and its the same Power out of Wall like the older Firmware

Has anyone tried minepeon?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/linux-mining-distro-for-the-raspberry-pi-minepeon-137934
I had it on my USB erupters some months ago, it worked perfectly.
Not sure about running on CCDs though.

Hi !
before i go down to my cellar and opend the Desk , what is the improvment of the Firmware ?
Cause i only had an 8 GB Sd which is inserted in the Desk and i have to overwrite .

http://bitmine.ch/support/firmware/
However, they don't list the latest firmware there and also I can't find a download link. Since I received my Desks recently I decided to image the latest firmware from one of my Desk units so other people could upgrade if they wanted to.
My 2 Satoshis about your situation:
1) If it ain't broke, don't fix it. That is, don't upgrade. We don't know what improvements are in the latest firmware because Bitmine haven't documented it (if someone knows, please let me know).
2) If you do want to upgrade, buy a good quality 8GB SDCard and put the upgrade image on that. If anything goes wrong, just put the old SDCard back in.

Maybe it was the psu , try by hashing on 2module or one module first , unpluge the rest of the cable to the module and see what happen? Look at the backplane if there is any burnt sign

One of my Desk units will hash for about a minute, then stop.
I figured out how to start cgminer manually, and this is what happened:
root@raspberrypi:/# cgminer --text-only --lowmem --bitmine-a1-options 16000:800000:8000 -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -O username_CCD1:1234 -o eu-stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -O username_CCD1:1234 -o stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -O username.home1:password --failover-only --api-allow W:127.0.0.1 --api-listen --queue 50 --quiet

Segmentation fault62.9G (5m):35.60G (15m):12.05G (avg):750.6Gh/s
After hashing for about a minute, cgminer dies with a segmentation fault.
This may be a software issue?
I tried the following:
Replaced the sdcard with a different one - imaged from a working machine. Still get "segmentation fault".
Replaced the Raspberry Pi with a new one, using the new sdcard. Still get "segmentation fault".
Any ideas?

ok , then Software is good.
What if you change the PSU Cables from Modules or try only the defektive Board alone on the PSU (with an PSU Cable that worked on the other Boards )?
Edit : witch Type of PSU you got ? i mean its possibly that PSU doesnt match with amount of Boards.
