Have you tried sd-card boot after problem showed up?

From Braiins Docs:

Quote from: Braiins

Recovery Mode
Users don’t typically have to enter recovery mode while using Braiins OS in a standard way. The restore2factory.py downgrade process uses it to restore the original factory firmware from the manufacturer. It can also be useful when repairing/investigating the currently installed system.

The recovery mode can be invoked in different ways:

IP SET button - hold it for 3s until green LED flashes
SD card - first partition with FAT contains file uEnv.txt with a line recovery=yes
miner utility - call miner run_recovery from the miner’s command line

Also:

Quote from: Braiins

Recovering Bricked (Unbootable) Devices Using SD Card
If anything goes wrong and your device seems unbootable, you can use the previously created SD card image to recover original firmware from the manufacturer:

Follow the steps in Creating Bootable SD Card Image to boot the device
Run (on Windows, use python command instead of python3):

Code:

cd braiins-os_am1-s9_ssh_VERSION
python3 restore2factory.py backup/2ce9c4aab53c-2018-09-19/ your-miner-hostname-or-ip

If the device cannot get IP address, is there a way to reset factory or access it?

thanks for your time.

Hello and thanks to your reply,

I connected just 1 miner at the same time and conflicting is not possible.
Is IP SET button is same IP REPORTER button? If it is I have no luck to get recovery mode.
and at last no new IP listed in router dhcp list. and scanning network with arp also unsuccessful.

Is this maybe happend beacuse of new antminer s9j frimware?

I have no idea if the latest bitmain firmware can cause this.

Have a look at https://docs.braiins-os.org/
It may help you.

Maybe all the 3 are getting one ip and conflicting.

Get to Recovery Mode by IP SET button - hold it for 3s until green LED flashes.
Connect 1 faulty miner at a time, check your router dhcp status to find the ip, and try to login via web or ssh.

I have 13 devices (S9j) and I changed all 10 of them successfully to Braiins-OS.
The problem is my other 3 devices are not accessible after install! It seems the network cannot give IP address so connect, disconnect every second.

p.s. All 3 devices are new! and bitmain 2019 series, but other 10 devices 2018.
p.s. All 3 devices worked perfectly from SD with Braiins-OS.
p.s. I'm trying to install latest Braiins-OS.
p.s. When I installed to NAND from web interface process completely successful.

Also I did set static IP address and pool settings and then boot from SD (with the same IP I had set up.), then I logged in to web interface and installed it to NAND (System > Install Current System to Device).
The installation process had completely successful (in report log there is no IP shown!)
finally when switch back jumper to NAND and turn on device the problem is still there!

The device fan speedup 5seconds and again slow down. Lan LED light is connecting and disconnecting in every second, so I cannot connect to device from anywhere(web & ssh).

I wrote this information maybe some one knows what must I do?
any help or advice?
thanks

I am mainly needing help to figure out how I tell card one to be at 681HZ,8.8V card two to be at 731HZ,8.9v and card 3 to be at 725HZ,8.7V at 11am, etc
Thanks

Sorry, I cant do that,
But you can post here your edited versions and we will check them for you.

Hello, I just installed Braiins OS on my s9j 14.5 Th, but in the device overview it shows device model as s9 is it ok ?

Braiins does not distinguish.

Nope you dont need to do it every day,

Info on 1st crontab sample:

copy and reload at 7 AM:

Code:

0 7 * * * cp /root/cgminer.conf.500 /etc/cgminer.conf && /etc/init.d/cgminer reload

copy and reload at 11 PM

Code:

0 23 * * * cp /root/cgminer.conf.750 /etc/cgminer.conf && /etc/init.d/cgminer reload

Info on second crontab sample:

This will stop cgminer at 06:59 AM everyday

Code:

59 6 * * * /etc/init.d/cgminer stop

This will copy cgminer.conf.500 to cgminer.conf at 07:00 AM every day

Code:

0 7 * * * cp /root/cgminer.conf.500 /etc/cgminer.conf

This will start copied cgminer at 07:01 AM everyday

Code:

1 7 * * * /etc/init.d/cgminer start

And ...

google crontab to see the options

Type in

Code:

crontab -e

And add as you wish for schedule

So I want to do this in "scheduled tasks", But I want to make sure that I have it typed right. Can you lend any assistance with that? Doing it the way you sugested will require me to do something every day (as I do now). I want to be able to set it and let it run.

Thanks,

'The right to privacy matters'

no it depends on how much power you want to use.

1 s-9 can use this setup wait for links

https://www.amazon.com/NEMA-6-15P-Power-Rated-Black/dp/B07DX9VNVX/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07M8JKLG5/

that will accept this cable

https://www.amazon.com/MarginMart-Conductor-Connector-Socket-MM682020/dp/B076J61L37/

it will do 240 volt up to 1800 watts safely

do not test for longer then 2 or 3 hours if you are over 1200 watts.

I have been looking but I have not been able to find any that work with 240V 6-15p or 6-20p outlets.

Would a clamp meter be the easiest solution?

Hi

I have been using Braiins OS & really like it.

I would like to try to improve the efficiency of my miners by underclocking my S9's

What is the best way to figure out the watts used?

Thanks

I have a few miners that only reported one board temp sensor with december firmware. With 6/5 firmware there are no temp sensors seen on any boards for a few miners Fans are running 100%, staying cool. Before I could use sensor on one board to control fans. Any way to make that feature act as before?

Also, have had a few controller boards with braiins install from seller that had no ssh access. Enabled dropbear on system->administration to get ssh access.

I use no-sensor-scan when it takes 30 min to boot doing the scan. If at least one board sensor is working it will control the fans.

Did the install bOS into flash memory from a running SD card from the gui system menu. Works great.

Swapped one hashboard showing a temp into each of 7 miners showing no temps on any hashboard.

Now the one hashboard with a temp is controlling the fan for each miner so it doesn't run at 100% .

TUN/TAP module is now part of the base system as we cannot use upstream modules due to custom kernel. These can be useful for OpenVPN

Using a VPN to mine WILL increase stales and WILL increase the risk of the pool losing blocks.
I've no idea why anyone would put that in a firmware.

Quote from: Artemis3 on June 07, 2019, 10:35:42 AM

[bug] #xnsub support for NH stratum extension has been fixed

This is not not part of cgminer for a reason - it's a MAJOR security risk for the miner.
It is NOT in the master cgminer git.
Which ALSO means that the exact source code used MUST be provided if ANYONE using this, requests it.
