'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.

had a dead s19 pro that was doing 110th at 3200 watts. or 29 watts a th

Loaded braiins+ auto tuning as I type.

At the moment 104.6 th and 2640 watts which is 25.88 watts. I will post tune numbers soon.

18 minutes into the tune

106.9 and 24.73 watts









It will get better. Well hoping for it to get better.


This actually works? ...

I'm impressed!

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

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...

Well ... I got pretty far actually ...

Though I guess your response will be that pool size is all that matters ... so everyone should leave your pool and go to the bigger ones? Smiley

I know, you are one of the good examples. But remember that even your pool is not 0% fee  Smiley

when you have rolling advertising for the same firmware and miners on 1 forum you start to wonder if bitcoin is actually worth anyones time. if braiins is needed bitcoin already has a problem. i already have credit cards who charge merchants 2-5% dont need a free p2p network currency firmware that charges 2% and a pool fee that charges 2% kinda sounds like the same ball of shit

You are free to run your own pool and develop your own firmware for free, lets see how far you can get...

Whats next, free lunch? You can hash things by hand if you don't want hw or fw optimized for said hw.

And in this forum anyone can run advertising signatures, got a problem with that? No we don't have a campaign running (I'm too lazy for it). If you don't like it, don't use it. If you don't like my messages, use the ignore function and go back to your credit cards.

Yes, Bitmain is using cpus designed for real time video processing with AI acceleration for identification of people... A bit of a waste IMO.
My inner conspiracy-theorist is having a field day with that!  Grin

Apparently from 2023 onwards, so in theory you should be safe. I actually got the first picture in late December. It is from CVITEK.

There is a new control board which is under study, it also comes with a microSD slot in the front, so no, it is not a safe method.
There will be an announcement about AmLogic, you should keep them. Only the aml has the usb port so its still easy to recognize from the outside. And only the bbb has no port at all, its also easy to recognize from the outside.

If it has a microSD slot, then hopefully it has a sticker with Zynq/Xilinx/7007 on top. Else you need to remove the metal cover and see for yourself.
Thanks again!

Regarding the new control board with SD card at the front which is not a Zynq board: How new is that board? Is a used miner that was initially bought in mid-2022 certainly a Zynq board miner if it has the SD slot at the front? Or when is the cutoff date?

Wait for the next release, or try with a BeagleBone. The Zynq image is currently supporting a few less variants.



When shopping around for a miner, how best can I get a reliable answer from a potentially clueless vendor to figure out if the miner has a zynq or a BBB or a Amlogic control board?

And how could it be verified, eg is there an easy way to take a photo that shows a relevant part of the control board, so that even an uninformed vendor could show me a photo that answers if it is a BBB or a Amlogic board?

The external SD card slot is easy enough to verify the zinq variant.

What does it mean on the BraiinsOS+ page under "Choose Miner" where it lists "Antminer X19" ?

Do you mean it includes all S19 and T19 models?

Thanks for your 'Yes' reply earlier!

However, I have another related question which may seem redundant, but I want to be certain a miner will run on BraiinsOS+ before buying it:

I am looking at an Antminer S19 with this sticker: " Ctrl_Board: Amlogic "

Is that control board going to be a problem?

EDIT: I think I found the answer: " does not have an SD card slot, only a microUSB " from https://braiins.com/blog/bitcoin-mining-control-board-variations

I suppose that still means no BraiinsOS+ for such a miner?
