Topic: LIGHTNINGASIC LA100M,100MHS SCRYPT Miner, USD1999; LA1THS, USD1750.shipped out! - page 93. (Read 309065 times)

i had same problem with one miner, i just simply powered it off and on, and worked

Is it possible the USB hub has a few bad ports or is in some other way defective?  Try switching the "good wires" (USB & power) from a working miner with those on a non-working one.

Also, try this:

1. Unplug power cable from TP-Link controller
2. Turn off the USB hub switch (or unplug the hub from the controller)
3. Remove all the USB cables from the hub except 1 of them
4. Plug in the TP-Links power cable
5. Allow the controller to start up and "settle" a bit (~2mins or so)
6. Make sure the controller dashboard shows no devices connected and says something about connecting a USB hub
7. Flip the power switch on the USB hub so now the 1 miner is connected to the controller
8. REfresh the Dashboard to see the 1 miner show up
9. Wait to let that 1 miner start hashing away
10. Next, plug in the remaining miners 1 by 1...about 1 min apart from each other

I did the above and it seemed to be the "right" way for my particular controller/miners to get up and running.  I found that if you power up the controller with all the miners connected it just sits there and does nothing.

Hope this helps, if not, well, I'm really sorry but that's the only suggestions I've got for you.    The only other recourse I see is trying to get a hold of Jack on skype and asking him to get you one of his tech support guys to help.



Edit:  Incidentally a few of us have setup a dedicated discussion thread on tech support for these over here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=477709.0;topicseen).  This allows us to keep this thread on track for purchases/sales/shipping/etc.

Funny shit. He told me - and i can quote this from skype - that he cannot coordinate/reference orders with tracking ID's .. If DHL cant tell me theres a package comming my way tomorrow i'll file a paypal dispute.

Im considering just contacting gridseed insted and popping up a .eu reseller shop.

Aparrently its doable for anyone.

Are there any .eu resellers yet? - ones getting stock directly from gridseed?

Thank you.
i did added btcpool  and enabled
6units worked fine

but...4units not working and not LED
i take iPhone Movie

changed usb cable
but same result...

please help me

I didn't realize this but its very subtle. In the instructions it says you have to also fill out the bitcoin fields (with fake stuff just click off the enable button) then it should work atleast it did for me.

FYI,

When you turn them on, green light comes on and there is a slow red blink like every 5 secs. Its powering up and and contacting pool

In single LTC mode, green light is constantly on and red light flashes intermittently like once a couple of seconds. This means it is hashing.

In dual mode, green light and red light blinks really fast. That means its hashing both.

Anything else and it's indicating problems.


Also, for those that switch from dual mode to single. You have to do a HARD reset, turn off power from the wall. Otherwise with a soft reset sometimes it gets stuck and is mining LTC but using 600w instead of 115w. A kill-a-watt confirms that.

I can always create consignments in fedex/dhl without arranging pickup. Just saying. You better chase it up.

What's 1:4 in your worker's name?

Do you have 10 different workers in the Worker's Name list separated by commas?

Example:

login.wk1, login.wk2, etc... up to 10.

Use the 1 password for all.

What usb hub are you using? A orico, unitek or xipolar or something else?

Dhl tracking still says "shipment information received", which means that they don't actually have the package.

Jack said 2 things:
1) the units would be shipped before feb 20, otherwise he would give a refund.
2) the units thanks to a phantomatic would be able to hash at 500khash

None of them turned out to be true, and those were the reasons that made me order this things

update : my order has been shipped (feb 24)

I don't know about the proprietary LightningAsic units, but my Gridseed factory ones are pretty stable, though not perfect. They can hash at 3.5-4mh. I never believed the 5mh. Had been tinkering with them for over a month.

Another thing is LightningAsic have "forked" their own controller and locked it. I don't know why people would consider this. I don't think the support is there compared to the progress made by the actual GS team in Beijing, who I have much more faith in. They have built wiibox.net and it works pretty well. In any case, if you want advanced stats then you can at lease mod your own controller through ssh. There are some modders out there floating around in China doing a good job with the open source.

please tell me!
my LA3M is always offline...why??

To give everyone a heads up. I am speaking to the same channels in china. Those 12mhs units are vapourware atm. Yes, a team is working on that, in a form factor of 2 blades like antminers i heard. Imo, they are at least 8-10 weeks away, which is more realistic. Think about it, these GS miners just started selling, so the company will milk at least a few months out of it before introducing another range. I don't know about the price either. I guess some people will believe it and pay for it in pre-order.

The 1TH btc unit is real. A couple of weeks away from selling but I have seen them run at 1.1th at 870w. Whether its good value depends on the final price.

Yeh, they are real. See here:

I have been hashing away from January 17th. They have their short-comings but it helps in certain situation. Like people who still mine from home and have maxed out their power circuits. And they run very cool. In Australia, where the last couple months my GPU rigs are subjected to 40+ degrees of heat. That solves my heat and thus stability problems.

Can't you demand access to your own controller? I guess they have made custom software which they can protect. imo I prefer to have access to it rather than be slave to a closed loop system and unable to do anything custom. Much like apple ecosystem.

thanks. And what power you are using on each unit?

If scrypt mining, doesn't get hot at all.

Can someone tell me if the gridseed that Jack sells get very hot or not much.Also what kind of power the gridseed uses 12v 5a or 12v 10a.

thanks

THe second half of my order is also suffering from no communication. Not exactly sure why so you're not alone. I got my first set already.

I want to confirm that the product is real and I am hashing away at around 2.6kh - 2.8kh/s. I can take a picture if people need proof, now I'm waiting for the rest coming.

In the same boat, but I paid with BTC on the 12th for one LA3M.  Have still not received any payment confirmation or tracking info.  I sent an email 2 days ago, and got this reply:

"hi
i will check it,
thanks
Angela
"
... Still nothing. Not even an acknowlegement that they received my payment.  I am still hopeful that Jack will make good on his end, but I do share in the frustration others are having.
