Help me!!

I bought newpac and run only several minutes without fan. Since I'm not good and computer and also not good at English, I just run cgminer with default option. On Windows cmd, I typed 'cgminer.exe' Enter '-o stratum+tcp://jp.stratum.slushpool.com:3333' enter 'Ellio' (my username) enter and enter(because I have no password). It says about 23GH/s for about 5 minutes. But after then, hashrate goes down to 0 and the the device became 'OFF' or 'ZOMBIE' condition.

These are the copies of cmd

Code:

ASIC Boost is on by default. You only use command line options to disable it on pools that don't support it.

Awesome thanks!

OK so another Noob question. I am running a single NewPac (crawling before I run). I have it working and mining just fine. I am on a pool that "This pool fully supports Version-Rolling ASIC Boost - also known as Overt ASIC Boost" When I add the command line --Gekko-New Pac-Boost (may not be right here but I copied and pasted it from this forum when I tried it) to the .bat file and run it I get an error saying the command is not recognized by CGMiner. Help?

Could it be the USB 3.0 hub? I ran into issues when I tried any of my mining hardware to USB 3.0, didn't matter if it was the newpac, r606 or Futurebit's Moonlanders 2.0 (scrypt mining). They all would have issues when i used a 3.0 hub. I switched to a BrovSS 2.0 hub for the newpacs and moonlanders and didn't have any problems other than power delivery at the time. They are now running on a gekko science USB hub, overclocked with no issues.

And a fan? If you're running sticks that high you need a fan.

Yes I've got the Arctic Breeze USB fan

What revision of cgminer are you using? What hub are you using? What type of pc is it connected to? HW errors themselves arent a big issue, the missing nonces is an irritation when it affects hashrate though.

Hey guys,

So I keep getting HW errors on my Newpac, and every few hours cgminer reads: missing nonces, Toggling ASIC nRST to reset.

My Newpac then resets, however I've noticed this is effecting my hashrate.

This issue is exclusive to my Newpac, I'm running two 2pacs on the same usb hub and they are performing very well with no issues. (I've been running the Newpac at 300MHz the last few days, and last night I lowered it to 275MHz but its still producing HW errors.) (The 2Pacs are both running at 150MHz)

Can anyone help me out with this? I have no idea how to get rid of these HW errors.

Has anyone else had this issue with their Newpac?

Cheers

Regarding ASIC Boost, when I run cgminer, I always specify "lowboost" anyway (cause I use Windows), even when going through a pool, so are you positive that's the biggest factor? I should probably test it with no-boost.

ASICBoost is probably the biggest factor in that. It's basically impossible to push past 800GH on a single pod without it due to USB packet limitations.

The pool is optimized for mining in code, server hardware and internet connection. The default bitcoind is not. Also the Bitcoin client doesn't support ASIC Boost where that pool does.

Noob question:

If I solo mine my R606 to solo.ckpool.org, I generally get around 900Gh/s.

If I solo mine to my own bitcoind node (http://localhost:8332) I only get around 730 Gh/s.

Does anyone know why? Is the code in cgminer that optimizes R606 only working when used with a pool or something?

Hi there,

Does anyone know what the optimal thread-concurrency setting is for the Newpac and 2pac? and how to change the thread-concurrency setting on a Raspberry Pi running Raspien?

For anyone who's interested, threw this NewPac rig together last night on a laptop cooling pad.

1 x Raspberry Pi 3b+
1 x 7-Port Hub with 60W Power Adapter
4 x NewPacs @ 318.75MHz - Averaging a stable 71.80Gh/s each
4 x 'Extra Power' USB Splitters
1 x 2TB HDD

Solid little setup, not the most rock-solid active cooling solution, however the heat seems to be dispersed rather evenly.
Special Thanks to 419Mining for sorting out terrible USPS service.

7 Newpacks running fine @ freq. 200, 320-355 GH/s. Using Raspbian, Pi3 B+

Just added the other 3 thanks to outstanding customer service from GekkoScience and minefarmbuy, in the time it took me to figure out the Raspberry Pi they replaced the 3 "faulty" miners!

I had 4 running well @150 for a day and a bit, then went to freq 200 for another day, when the warrantied 3 Newpacks arrived I just added them and started all 7 straight at 200, no issues so far after a day+

Oh, I run 2 USB fans pointed at them and the Heatsink temps run from 36 to 40C; What temp should this run at?

This weekend I add the R-606 to the Rasp and see if I can have my ultimate "BTC Solo/Lotto" self sufficient machine!

Thanks again Sidehack
