GigaBit, what is your opinion about 60A on 12V ? My S5 dont work on 700w PSU ( and 52.5A on 12V).

I would try another pool as first pool.And S1 and S3 had similar problems when I changed pool/worker settings and didn't boot them.

Nailed it... many don't worry about it but many will not work without 3 pools.

Other thing is, the PSU should be at least 50Watts (80 Plus Gold) more than what is recommended, 100watts if you intend to overclock.

Only for testing, i try to see if working with 70A on 12V.

That's a waste, if you had money to waste, then just buy good brand PSU.

Looks like a cheap PSU.  Do you have any other PSU you can try to use instead of it?

I had the same problem. ZERO temperature means that power system of hash board failed - either too high frequency or low voltage, but it can be also big trouble of ASIC broken. Do the following:

set freq to 100MHz and check if it changes anything.

1) the boards should at least try to work, so you can see either GH/s or HW errors. If so, try highest stable frequency, if the frequency is higher than 300MHz, use better PSU (lucky case). If stable frequency is lower, you can start with RMA, at least one of ASIC was overheated and is malfunctioning.

2) still zero temperature at 100MHz? You can safely RMA your boards, at least TWO ASICs are unsoldered due to critical overheat.

Reason why ASICs show ooo is because Vdd voltage (compute cores) is stringed and failed, but Vpll has different circuit, so it thinks that ASICs are running.

i would either try a lower clock or test 1 board at a time buy unplugging the white cable and not plugging the pcie power in. my half working s5 pulls ~320-340 watts at the wall when clocked at 350 when hooked up to a 850 watt server psu. This way you can see if its your psu or something with the miner.

I believe problem on PSU, buy good PSU like corsair, seasonic or evga at least 750 watt.

i put the latest firmware, and i have 350 frequency. If the new PSU dont solve the problem, i think the S5 is broken.

Everything looks good on it.  I would look at flashing firmware -   A example of that is here - https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203559969-My-S5-hashes-at-about-600GH-S

And if that does not work go to a nicer PSU.

Of course, but what configuration ? Miner configuration ?

Yes so we can see how pools are entered.  Antpool works great so just trying to really sure you have it in right.

I wrote last firmware but still nothing happens.
I think I have no enough power. I read that the PSU should have at least 60A on 12V. Tomorrow or after tomorrow i will put a higher source.
Please explain to me what is the meaning and connection between the following terms: local work, getworks and discarded.
At this time, asic status shows "o" on all the chain1 with 26grd temperature and "-" on all the chain2 temperature 0.
I tested chain1 , but i dont test chain2 because i dont have right tools.


The "o" is good it means the chip is in working order.  If you see "x" there its bad and you might have a bad chip.

Can yo take a picture of configuration page?

Man, why don't you buy directly from Bitmain?..
Quote
Tomorrow I will try with a source of 62.5 A at 12 V.
Good Idea.

I do not understand why ASIC status is OK, why the temperature is zero and no hashing ?
Must try to write SD-S5-20150415.tar.gz ?

In any strange case firstly try to reflash the firmware. It should not harm your miner, but in many cases can help.  Wink

Good catch that is a odd port on the first one aswell.  Here is a link to Bitmain's antpool: https://antpool.com/home.htm
