Looks like unsupported variant, or it can't read the EEPROM for some reason, bad cable connection, corrupted eeprom, etc. Try swapping the ribbon data cables.

SD cards can't be SDXC or later thanks to Bitmain. Just SDHC or SD; in layman terms, 16g max (a few 32g may work, nothing bigger).

got an email from braiins today . you will be able to remote load. just like you remote load bitmain os.

i will test over the week end

Trying to get Braiins OS+ running from SD card S19J Pro with Beagelbone control boards. I got the BB version and flashed the image onto an SD card using balenaEtcher. Can't seem to get the miners to boot from SD card. They boot into stock Bitmain OS no matter if the SD card is inserted or not.

Is there something else I need to do to tell the miner to boot from the SD card?

**Edit/Update** Seems to be a problem with the type of SD card used. I tried another card and got it to boot from SD.

Now I am having another issue, on one machine it won't mine and I see the following in the log. Any idea how to fix this? The machine works fine with Bitmain's OS:

Hey everyone I'm relatively new to the world of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, and I have a few questions.
Can someone help clarify the process of setting up a secure Bitcoin wallet and the best practices for keeping my investments safe? I've heard about hardware wallets and software wallets, but i'm not sure which one is right for me. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

1st - learn how to use a Forum... One does not just blindly post wherever they want to. Forums have specific areas dedicated to specific topics. Posting off-topic questions wherever you happen to be just ticks folks off and does not encourage them to give you the answers you need...
2nd - repeating the question 2x is just.... Roll Eyes

In your case the correct area is Beginners & Help where you find your answers.

Just digging around

I would like to know what are the requirements for the new API calls Pause/Resume? Tried to find in the docs, but not yet there.
I mean what needs to be activated e.g. dynamic hashrate/shutdown/etc. Doesn't seem to stay off when there is a simple W target.

Well I simply responded to your own comments about other pools.
OK, if you don't want pool talk here - don't start it

Fee cost has not changed. If you aren't doing curtailment, you earn less satoshis using those Chinese pools. That 2% rebate matters.

But on top of that you are still one of the highest pool fees - 2%

So Any FPPS pool that is charging less than 2% (quite a few) is giving a higher reward, no matter what 'marking' lies you make up.

... and on top of that even your own site points out that luck on the last 250 blocks = 3.5 months, has been down 7.5%
So they are losing 7.5% there also, so no way are they making more

Feel free to argue yourself with that user. Unlike others, I'm not doing any "marking" lies (did you mean marketing? too bad, I'm not that).

With the rebate, it is 0%. And guess what, Partners have more options. But this is not a pool thread, so go back to the pool section if you want to waste time arguing instead of coding, People are waiting for the BM1398 BM1362 BM1366, get back to work so a product can be launched before the S21...

Bad mouthing Braiins Pool isn't going to bring you a single miner to yours (especially when you ban independent firmware), You know perfectly well how luck works. Its not 2015. I'm not allowing pool talk here anymore, any further comment about pool will be unceremoniously deleted, use the pool section. You don't see me trolling in your thread so respect mine.

A native mac and windows port is in the works but you can simply install WSL1 in windows and run it there, it even works with your windows web browser, run it without options inside wsl, and outside open http://127.0.0.1:8888

In MacOS you can use virtual machine emulation, with the likes of utm or multipass, install something like Linux Lite and run it there.

Of course Linux is better, it always is. I'm surprised you don't have a single Linux machine, when all your miners use it...

Oh yeah, it runs in raspberry pi (and similar ARM devices) too...
Feel free to join the Partnership program so can get even more benefts, just fill the form at the bottom of that page.

Here is a brief reminder of the difference of PPS vs Score measured over a decent amount of time:

* Luxor should have been the same as the other PPS pools, it was a bug (fixed) because they are doing out of order shares and the firmware had to be changed to acomodate for this.

I now see a tool box. but only for linux.

I will need to setup 2 pc's for this. or wait for windows/Mac.

I am getting ready to fill a box with s19's and s17's maybe 75 units if I use linux and your new tools program what is fee cost.

I likely will remain at viabtc not slush. With luck I could be pushing 6ph-7ph soon.

'The right to privacy matters'

Still working . Since it is in my garage and not the farm I dropped clock to 2500 watts. I altered temp setting to 72 80 90.

It tuned over night and is now doing 97th and 2475 watts.

Saves me driving to repair guy in next state.

After much playing with gear I found the actual issue was the white info cable between the psu and the control board.

Since this firmware (brains+) will allow a solid under clock at 25 watts a th I will leave it in place for the next two months due to summer heat issues.

To have a second firmware is good for testing purposes as I would not have figured out what was wrong with this gear with only bitmain firmware.

By patient testing I got 2 s19 pros with 1 board running to two s19s with six boards running.

or 36th up to 210th.

First one I fixed by mixing and matching the six boards till three worked.
second one I used brains as the three boards left would not register with bitmain firmware.
they worked sporadically with brains+ so I then replaced the cable from psu to controller getting good results. Also I like this firmwares abiltity to go to 2475 watts vs 3200 watts.

Design choice. For the firmware to take action, only the hottest value is needed.

On the stock antminer firmware, you can see the 4 temperature reading on the card. With Braiins I can only see the hottest. Why so?

You can delete those values, then Save & Apply, and it will restore defaults.

Okay, I will do that. To see what the defaults are.

I run with Bariin's software and have the following temp. settings for my antminer 17 series miners. In this case S17PRO, T17+ and S17+ miners.

Temp mode: auto

Target 75c
Hot 85c
Dangerous92c

Can't find any information from Bitmain about recommended chip temperatures for 17 serie only for PCB.

Does Braiins have any temp. recommendations or people in this thread?

Quote from: Miner Maker

Increase your Bitcoin mine's profitability 25% with BraiinsOS Firmware! A Data Driven Overview

I have been saying this for a good while: Efficiency matters.

You know what is not efficient? Pre-sets. Blind manual settings that may work "equally" with an average number of miners can only produce average results. Real autotuning has no shortcuts and only Braiins OS+ does it. Others can't bother to do the whole job, and they lack the capacity to do so anyway.

With proper autotuning, results vary with each miner, because each miner chip yield quality varies. The manufacturer just mixed many low yield with a few high yield chips so the average reaches their "advertised speed". Therefore the "same" (manual) settings will never be efficient across a vast number of miners and this just confirms what others in the industry have verified by themselves.

Furthermore, a blind pre-set doesn't monitor chips and doesn't self adjust in response, something Braiins OS+ does. Which is why, miners running Braiins OS+ last longer. The firmware protects the chips and acts while others just squeeze them until they die.

And yes the industry knows. Many just quietly test and adopt because the results don't lie, especially tests done properly like this one.

Braiins is not joking when it states it has pushed the mining industry, and more is coming...
