what limit references should be used for overclock downvolt?
i don't understand why in my test braiins result worse than bitmain......

i've tested an s9i 13,5 on bitmain selected default hashrate with low voltage and result Gh/s 13560  W 1153 without error stable.

but with braiins Gh/s 13470 W 1170 with 1 error .... with 625 mhz and undervolt to 8.75.

You can take a look at the logs from bitmain's if you are curious, as it sometimes shows the voltage and speed and try to match. But don't be too reliant on it, discover your best settings by yourself.

Do not pay much attention to errors (unless there are way too many, but wait like an hour first), just at the actual and ideal hashrates, they should match as close as possible. I never used the second decimal, just things like 8.7, 8.6, 8.5... And speeds like 650, 625, 600, etc.

So you are going to do this on each hashboard. Pick a desired speed and start lowering the voltage, until you see the aforementioned values differ too much, then go back a notch in that voltage (OR) lower the speed and start again. Various people here managed to do about 80w per TH, things like 8v 500mhz or so so about 10 TH @ 810W.

Every single hashboard behaves different, you can find the absolute best your hashboard can do with bOS.

It might be useful to do tests against reliable pools such as ckpool which shows your miner stats without registering. The best efficiency is not necessarily close to "stock" speeds (and usually aren't).

someone suggest good pool for braiins? ( but i see all working well )

1-slushpool.com
2-depool.ckpool
3-zpool.ca
4-multipool.us

Thanks Artemis3  Smiley

zpool.ca is like nicehash, it needs the #xnsub parameter for decent bitrate...

You would use it like this:

stratum+tcp://sha256.mine.zpool.ca:3333#xnsub
stratum+tcp://sha256.na.mine.zpool.ca:3333#xnsub
stratum+tcp://sha256.eu.mine.zpool.ca:3333#xnsub


User is your bitcoin address, password is: c=BTC

Don't use this option with normal pools, its only useful for coin changing pools.

And what do you mean by that? Web version can be installed easily using the web ui update firmware button. This only works with factory firmware from 2018 or earlier, because manufacturer decided to lock the miners in 2019, and requires one of the different methods for unlocking first.

Mass deployment can be done by using a python script. For automated post configuration (stage3) you need to use the earlier version from may because of bug.

Well you said it your self, not really user friendly. Also bear in mind if you wish to revert back to original firmware (without backup from SD card) and only have windows its not a very intuitive task.

BTC price road to $80k
No, you can't configure the dev fee and I think they don't have a dev fee unless if you have programming skill to modify the firmware.

If you are planning to modify it check this open-source from here https://github.com/braiins/braiins-os

Hi, i think i solved the problem.
i must be put the "Use custom DNS servers"
now working......

but IPv4 broadcast must be fill or not? i'm not fill..... i don't know what write.....

Leave it alone if its working. broadcast address can be deduced automatically most of the time (its the top ip within a segment).

Try using multiple pools in case one fails. Most pools have multiple url addresses for different locations.

Try ckpool (no register needed) and see if its working there. And tell us what pool it doesn't work with.

I've tried, i connect to ckpool.org but my problem is not the pool destination, i've tried with slushpool,zpool and multipool, sometimes connect....
Now i've copy braiins with dd into tf card, insert into the s9, copy into the nand ( my control board is xilix )
I set passwd, hostname and pool (only one, the ckpool " depool.ckpool.org:3333 " without stratum+tcp:// )
i start and work......
i power off and power on and work.
another time power off and power on and don't connect
if another time power off and power on and don't connect
if another time power off and power on and don't connect
says:

Code:
API connection status: CGMiner is trying to start but keeps restarting, maybe wrong configuration?

Last cgminer quit reason: No servers could be used! Exiting. (0:11:17, clear reason)

this's my cgminer.conf (who don't start)

Code:
{"bitmain-use-vil":true,"api-port":"4028","api-allow":"W:0\/0","bitmain-voltage":",,,,,","config-format-revision":"1","bitmain-freq":",,,,,","no-pre-heat":true,"api-listen":true,"multi-version":"4","pools":[{"_id":"1","url":"depool.ckpool.org:3333","pass":"x","user":"1NjwuT6NaWmQb7aMPGcYPQj97sQTz4nkA7"}]}

i've tried also with the 443 port but nothing change.
i've tried also add at the pool address the prefix "stratum+tcp://" but nothing.
How can i fix? i don't understand where's my problem...... help.....

how can i run quota on this firmware? if i change in /etc/cgminer.conf

Code:
"url":"poola:porta"

to

Code:
"quota":"2;"poola:porta"

lua stop miner, icant run it.

pls, help someone

but I don't give up, I have to make it work ... I like braiins fw too much, I would have found an alternative solution using the fw bitmain, but it's still a worse solution.
I've see everytime the file cgminer.conf but i don't see error.....
I think someone tell me a solution, surely there's other person who have this problem.......

Yes, but when connect to the pool........

otherwise .......it's 1400w go to fly........

my conclusion i return to bitmain FW it's impossible work with this braiins firmware, everytime don't connect to the pool....... 1400w to the wind....

Good riddance. But others think otherwise. You may have a problem, but whatever that problem is you don't care. Your statement is simply a lie, no one forces you to use it, unlike the manufacturer...

any chance to make a classic firmware for easy deployment ?

It clear by now that most of S9 work very well with this firmware

Hi, the lastest version don't connect to the pool ....... someone have the link on the past web version?



The only way I have installed is by using the braiins web image using the dec 5 s9 GUI
Running 100 s9 in a modified 20 ft shipping container, all modified to braiins now.
Switched all my s9 550 and 600 fixed mhz controllers to xilinx boards.

You've the web image of 5 december?
can you post the image or link?
Thanks

Well i have only experienced that a few times after installing it. Are you still needing to do this periodically even when using the latest version? It is probably a bug but I'm not sure what exactly triggers it.

I guess you could try changing the permissions to the file (when its there and working) so that it becomes read only like: chmod ugo-w /etc/cgminer.conf and see if it makes a difference. It shouldn't be disappearing or changing its size to 0 bytes on its own...

Bravo. Neat hack Wink
Yes I'm still getting this error even I'm in the latest version. I've reported it. waiting for someone to fix the bug.
