Wasn't it supposed to self tune for max HR based on feedback from the on-die temp sensor, or am I imagining things again?

The temp sensor does work, check out the cgminer output instead of the (filtered) webinterface.

PS: I'm thinking that the first device hashing at.... 12 Mh (lol) is the CPU of the Raspberry Pi... Huh

The 1st device is also the BabyJet. You probably unplugged the usb cable and plugged it back in when cgminer was running or something.

People are actually receiving units ? ... wow. I got told in an email they expect January 28th.

so it comes underclocked

i think they want from their customers to overclock it and void the guarantee. clever! Cheesy

Exactly!

Letter from Amy:
"...
These machines may be overclocked, however OC'ing will void the warrantee and be entirely at your own risk.

So far I have one working over a hardwire ethernet connection - I see no way in the MinePeon settings to set up to work over wireless, which is my preferred option.

Minepeon is built on Arch Linux. Buy a usb wifi adapter (get one recommend to work with the RPI & Arch Linux). You can then configure the adapter in Arch Linux. I had issues getting wifi to work properly on the RaspberryPi and Minepeon. It would lock up on me all the time. I have since been running my Raspberry PIs on ethernet. You can try the Minepeon forums for some help (http://minepeon.com/forums/).

Also, I think that the newest version of Minepeon has a wifi config area in it's gui. It's still a pre-release version though.

How do you OC these bastards?

So, how are these networked? Do you have to use the ethernet cable, or can you USB connect to a windows/linux box and mine externally with cgminer?

Better use that 10 days of warranty while you got it!

As far as I can tell, the temperature sensor on the die is not working, otherwise it would show up under the "Temp" column in the list of devices.

I have not overclocked yet.. I am a bit apprehensive to OC without a working temperature sensor. I think I'll just wait to hear how other's OCing experience goes before doing so myself. They shipped them at this clock rate for a reason.. I'm sure they tested heavily with higher clock rates and saw stability problems/failure of hardware. There's probably a little wiggle room to overclock, but I wouldn't bump it up too much (especially because of the aforementioned broken temperature sensor.)

@HashFast

GN chip bringup - Both the temperature and voltage sensors have now been shown to work!

Will wonders never cease?

I have 2 units coming in today. I am curious about how well it can clock as well. But no temp sensor also worries. Me.

Can someone link to a setup guide? These baby jets come with no instructions other than to call the number, which is just a voicemail.

How can you change the clock rate on the miner?

I have a mFi power strip so I don't know how accurate it is compared to a kil-a-watt but it says that the miner is drawing 497/498 watts overclocked to 500Gh (650 mhz core clock).

For comparison it says the raspberry pi is drawing 2.5 watts.

Can someone get a Kill-a-watt on one of these?
