can you help me with your A3 Archive? I have 2 dis-functioning hashboards

What are the instructions for creating an archive?
I could do it if I had instructions.
on your A3 dashboard, you go to system after that upgrade and than you will find generate archive!

That would be great if you can help.

Switch pools , Sia Devs are at war with Bitmain , just like Dash
I'm on siamining... what other pool do you recommend?
hi,

would it be possible if you can help me with your A3 archive please...

thanks
sorry I do not have that and am away from my A3 to create one for you. There's a few usernames earlier in the thread that helped out, maybe PM them for best results...

thanks mousehouse....already done....waiting for their feedback since yesterday

Anybody else experience a collapse in mining speed / ASICs going offline this morning around 00.30 EDT? Looked the same as the dip the day before and I can see it in the global hash rate graph on siamining as well (smallish compared to earlier).

After a reboot all was fine again. Maybe my A3 crapping out or ... ?

I'm using 3 power supplies to power a A3 using 120v power.  The miner takes almost 1500 watts using a watt meter.  

What? No. I'm using 1 APW3++ using 120v. No issue at all. Consuming ~1,200 Watts

I have a meter on mine too on 120 V, and its 1400 Watts at the wall!

I have also had 5 s9 antminers drawing 1525 watts on 120 volt the same way for over a month..  on the same PSU's   APW3++


I read its not safe to do that. APW3 can only provide 1200 W at 110-120 V safely. No?

To those that have started to mine.

How much watts is it pulling? Any chance we could just run the APW3++ run on US 110 V?
APW3++ only 1200 watts on 110v. Even if bitmain overstated the draw, which they usually do....you would be cutting it awfully close.

Can someone post the power consumption details about A3 please? Really curious about a possibility to run Antminer A3 on 110V using APW3++....

Tested with 240V. Power is 1450W on wall

 On stock clock
Holeeee shit. Seems like they overclocked the shit out of these things. Just like the D3. What Frequency do they run at to get the 815mh??

Frequency running at 600.. temp is good, very stable miner..

What pool are you on ? How much is the miner earning per hour. Could you please share the configuration page, graying out confidential information. Thanks.

my pool is siamining.com
this is my configuration

Hey dt, what power supply unit are you using and are you on 220 or 120 volt?

i'm using this one https://shop.bitmain.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020171107201722598O4kMWe280658
and i'm on 220V

Bitmain specs say 1186 +/-7% fluctuation at 12v DC. Simply do that and add your psu's efficiency. 7% for titanium, 9% for platinum, 11% for gold and so on.

So the max it should draw is 1386w if you have a platinum psu. Psus also operate slightly more efficiently at 240v than 120v by 2%ish.

If the operating temperature is really hot I could imagine it going up to 1500w. 1350w is a more realistic day to day scenario.

Its reading 5.9A at 240v at the wall, so 1416w with an APW3++ power supply. Its also mining a little faster than usual at 835GH, so that may be why its high.
At 120v, it would be pulling 12A..so better have a dedicated circuit for it!

I'm using 3 power supplies to power a A3 using 120v power.  The miner takes almost 1500 watts using a watt meter.  

What? No. I'm using 1 APW3++ using 120v. No issue at all. Consuming ~1,200 Watts

well wtf I must have just wasted a ton of money buying a second PSU because I thought my miner would have many hardware errors and screw up from being on 120v  Embarrassed Embarrassed Embarrassed

Someone posted it is taking as much as 1500 W. What is the real truth?

I am in the same problem too. 120v and planning to use 2 power supplies.

Guess you could always underclock it to a lower frequency on a 120v to reduce wattage draw, and run it off a 20 amp circuit

Never had a bitmain asic before. Is it simple? Do you have an A3? Can you share what exactly to change bring this to 1200 W? Will that void the warranty or any other potential damage to the device? I understand that it will bring the hashrate down. But will avoid many issues for me.

My antminer A3 arrived one hashboard dead .
1st time I plugged in,One blade is dead.
PLEASE see the picture.
http://fantom.tokyo/A3config.PNG
then
http://fantom.tokyo/A3ASICDEAD.PNG
and
http://fantom.tokyo/A31DEAD.PNG

so I switched 18pin cable connection 1and2 and still board1 is dead(this time board1 is chain2)
http://fantom.tokyo/A3changeconnect.PNG

So please give me advise:-(

I think you just were mining during the soft fork test. Try rebooting your miner. It should be fixed by now

I am having the same issue with 2 boards. The reset and the reboot didn't help.
The only solution left is to flash it and we need the help of the A3 community as on Bitmain website they don't have it available....
I have asked for support waiting for a miracle to happen :-)

Hi, could anybody enlighten me if there is a working nicehash blake2b pool? It's not on the stratum list, tough in WTM its listed.

On NiceHash the blake2b is listed as Sia, since its the only coin minable with blake2b.  But i havent been able to get NiceHash to work for me....
I cant get it to work.  I got Mining pool hub to work for a bit, then it stops,  ie like 1 minute...

Funny how there is so little places to use this paper weight.. :-)



Still can't get it working.... ugh.

siamining is the only one working for me.
Same here. Siamining is the only one working. Not good, since they have over 51% hashrate. They also have a high 3% fee... Luxor, miningpoolhub, nicehash, etc all need to step up their game.

Luxor is working for me now.   They bumped up the starting difficulty (8k for me on the us-east server) which seems to resolve the issues but its settling at ~800.  MiningPoolHub is still starting at a difficulty of 1 and the miner gets crazy with the HW errors and restarts.

Hmm anyway to setup a solo mining situation?  that way you can control your own diff.
