Still having an issue with my CGMiner on my raspberry... running all good on windows

^C [2014-11-29 23:25:22] Shutdown signal received.                       

Running this =|>sudo ./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://xxx -u xxx -p xxx --bmsc-options 115200:55 --bmsc-freq 0781 --queue 0 --scan-time 1 --expiry 1 --lowmem

I'm guessing --bmsc-freq 0781 would be 200 mhz. (When i do not include that parameter, i got nothing either)

My parameters under windows => cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:55 --hotplug --lowmem -o stratum+tcp://xxx -u xxx -p xxx

Any idea what is the default freq under windows ? Guessing it's my problem atm.

Thanks

so an update is due since a few things happened
1) I disconnected the fans for 40 minutes. on all 4 units the maximum temperature reached while still on the original S1 heatsinks/frame with zero airflow was about 63-69 Celsius. Surprisingly this had little (if any at all) negative effect on spees or hashrate, and in fact seemed to improve some of the units i had issues with. Reconnected the fans and after 3 minutes they were back to running silently at 32-36 C.
2) after the above, more chips appeared to respond. I imagine this is due to the effect of the pencil modded lead tending to 'cure' in place and slightly reduce voltages further. ( i have not re-checked yet)
3) I tuned units 3+4 to 212.5/65 and am getting 102Gh from one (2 dead chips) and 109Gh from the other (no bad chips). Still no wattage readings, but i imagine ~1w/gh as this puts the hardware pretty close to the S2 specs.

I have no doubt now that the units can be stacked with spacers like chaositec did and have a single fan maintain temperatures at 55C or less without much noise. Hopefully the ebay standoffs arive soon to do this. The goal will be to run 16 boards (~800w) on a pair of CS650M

My bfgminer won't find all the chips on the board of my Antminer S1 board I use for testing the USB <->  UART adapter CP2102 :

Can anyone help me what am I missing in my config ... this is on a Raspberry PI B+ with bfgminer 4.10 hand compiled with ANT enabled :-)  :

bfgminer \
-o stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 -u lumanet.worker400 -p x \
-o stratum+tcp://uk1.ghash.io:3333 -u lumanet.worker400 -p x \
-o stratum+tcp://nl1.ghash.io:3333 -u lumanet.worker400 -p x \
--queue 50 --api-listen --api-allow W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.0.0/16 --api-port 4030 \
-S antminer:all

Thank you for all the help :-)

Each of my board is doing a stready 49GH. so 98 GH per unit (2 boards). My voltage is a bit higher, at 0.83 to 0.85. I don't set the frequency so i don't know what is it by default. I tried a timeout of 25 and i had a board doing more HW so i wen t back to a timeout of 55.

I might try to set it to 60 or 65, not sure it will help tho.

I run the CGMiner of Chaos, i wonder what is the default freq... i guess it's 200mhz ( i use --bmsc-options 115200:55 --hotplug 0 --lowmem)

4F81 is 400Mhz - did you pencil mod at all?

I'm still having some issues with my modding. Ive got 4 units:
unit 1: Resisitance in place = 2.05 (+/- 0.06). Voltage = 0.75 (+/- 0.03). Frequency/TO = 206.25/50.      All chips hash except for 2 of them - ~102GH
unit 2: Resisitance in place = 2.1 (+/- 0.06). Voltage = 0.76 (+/- 0.03). Frequency/TO = 200/65.      All chips hash except for 6 of them - ~89GH
unit 3: Resisitance in place = 2.13 (+/- 0.06). Voltage = 0.76 (+/- 0.02). Frequency/TO = 212.5/50.      All chips hash except for first chip on first board - ~102GH
unit 4: Resisitance in place = 2.13 (+/- 0.06). Voltage = 0.76 (+/- 0.02). Frequency/TO = 206.25/60.      About 8-16 chips dont hash - ~75.5GH

I'm having trouble finding much pattern here. some things i noticed:
- timeout >70 results in no hashrate and beeping. chips are generally all visible though
- timeout 50 works better than 60+ at frequencies ove 206.25Mhz, but at 200 or 193MHz 60 or 65 timeout seems to work best
- at lower frequencies, the last chips in each board tend to not work. at higher frequencies the first chips seem to be a more common issue.
- majority of 'x' chips are in the last segment on each board.
- if the frequency is too low, it seems to cause issues. whats stable at 200-206MHz is not very stable at 193MHz and a large number of chips read 'x' at 175Mhz

any advice? My goal is to move them to a small structure like Chaositec did - but first i want to get each board to hash 90GH or better. I cant tell if i should be setting my voltage even lower or if that will make things less stable

and consumption then?

i got 80-105Gh from board with you mod https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9625393
--bmsc-options 115200:20 --bmsc-freq 4F81 --lowmem

I got 49.1 to 49.3 with 2.7-2.8 Kohm with either 55ms or 22ms (didn't with the frequency tho in parameter, not sure what is it)

just thought id throw some info in on my own experience.

modding resistors to measure 2.0-2.1 kohm (in circuit) results in 0.74-0.78V. This runs about 50GH/board when using 200Mhz and 65ms timeout. no wattage readings yet

I was asking Sobe about the boards He said he might have some to sell.

I am in Europe. Czech rep. I do not look for boards, I will buy new miners with better GHs/W division. But I am glad to see the thrash working again.

I work for a company that is making router. So i have a few heatsink that i can pick from the thrashs for free but i bought 2 kit of small heatsink on ebay. They are a bit small and i think it's all good because the board are undervolt. I use a fan direct on them for the cooldown, they are not hot to the finger.

I don't know if you're in the US, but i'm still looking for S1 board. Us to Canada isn't so cheap (when we compare what the board worth...)

I just see one peak up to 66 GH/s, CGMiner side tho ;-) steady 49.1 and 49.2 at the moment.
