Is there any new firmware for the BTC Gardens yet?
The last I have it 7-19 and while it is ok it is still buggy.
The API is messed up as well as programs like MultiMiner can find them but they show as idle when they are running fine.

We use Awesomeminer - picks them right up and doesnt seem to have any issues.

While having the support of a single closed-source miner is cool, I'd love to support them in MultiMiner and MobileMiner as well. They use the documented CGMiner RPC API and the BTC Garden ASICs are the first to have any issue. I've already contacted the manufactures with no luck.

If there's anything you can do to help that would be great. Again I'd love to support them in my apps. You can PM me or email me at nwoolls @ gmail

Hello, I have looked into this further and the issue is that BTC Gardens ASICs reply to the DEVS RPC API call with the following:

Code:

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ echo -n "devs" | netcat W.X.Y.Z 4028
STATUS=E,When=1410482156,Code=10,Msg=No ,Description=cgminer 4.3.3|

The Code=10 above means that the BTC Gardens fork of CGMiner is returning No Devices when asked:

https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/api.c#L314

Until / unless this is fixed, BTC Gardens ASICs will continue to have issues with any monitoring systems that use the DEVS RPC API call.

Sounds more like the power supply does not handle it. 750 watt is hard on the limit.

I agree. You can test 3 blades at once as well, but sounds like you are pushing that particular PSU beyond its limits.

Oops, I am having problems with this unit, after reverting the fans it start hashing and when reach aprox. 542 Ghs the power supply stops.
I decide to place the fans the way was before and place the unit with the fans facing back where the room exhaust is, same thing, it reached 542 Ghs and the power supply stops.
I have a 600 W power supply around here so I connected the CX750M to the first 2 boards and the BXP600 to the 2 boards below, the power supply on the first 2 keep running but the BXP600 on the 2 below stopped. Looks like there is a problem in the 2 boards below.
I have to continue with this tomorrow, is late and have to rest.
At this moment reconfigured for 2 boards only (2 below disconnected) and it shows;

Try and test each board individually until you find the faulty board. Your CX750M will run a 4 board BTCGarden miner without any issues. I wouldn't doubt if the BXP600 PSU was causing the issues.

Mining for more than 24hours with the first to boards at the top only without issues, half hour ago tried the four boards and the same happened, when GHS reach more than ~520 it start slowing down and the CX750M stopped.
every time that happen have to disconnect the CX750M from the power for a few second to be able to power on again.
Disconnected the 2 upper boards from the power and using only the 2 at the bottom is hashing now for 15 minutes without any problem.
Don't know what the issue is with this unit, does not work with the 4 boards.
Could be that is drawing more power than 750w?

You need to test each board by itself until you find the bad board...change the Board Nums to 1 and test BOTH of the blades alone(from the suspected bad pair) so you can pinpoint the bad board. Once you find the bad board, try setting up your miner config for 3 Board Nums and run that way.

I am running an AM-v1x2 on a Corsair CX-750M without issues.

All boards tested one by one fine. Don't know what to do next except checking the cables that interconnect the boards.

Yes, check the inter-connect cables on the suspected bad pair...there have been a few reports of bad cables.

Got it, that is where the "matte" come from, always wanted to go there, have a friend working in the nuclear plant in Perth. Hope some day will go there.

Yes indeed, Australia is a beautiful place and fun from what I gathered. The "mate" comes mostly from my sailor days where everyone was your "shipmate" or matey or mate...old habits die hard, haha
