Great now that you have some results start to plug in others one by one until you get some results. If you can get them working at a base speed then its def a power issue you need to address in your electical system.
Basically plug them in until you the 0GHs thing happens again. I have asked around and based on the bitmine forums as well this is a power problem.

Based on what I am seeing you dont have enough power going into the PSU. If you have other stuff on the circuit for that miner it might be causing you issues. ALSO check that its a 20A circuit. Check your breaker box. If you are on a 15A circuit it might be the reason you are seeing those problems.

Also try to run it at powersave mode in the interface unless you know how to work the SSH console and can enter the right cgminer settings. If you are not familiar with linux then use the web interface.

Again this is where Tooltime logic applies....MORE POWER. This is just the nature of ASICs at this point. Some are more power friendly than others. This one is not one of them. But make sure you are pulling 20A at the wall and make sure its the ONLY thing on that circuit. Note not the outlet. The circuit. You need to know what is on that circuit and take it off for this to work. These things belong in a datacenter.


More power? I only have one blade plugged in.

OK. NOW I have a blade that previously reported 0Ghs now running at ~180 Gh/s

Only one blade is plugged in.



here it is on Eligius

Throttle down the setting to power save then on that single blade and see if it hashes at its base spec. Basically 1/5th of 1THs is what you are looking for. About 200Ghs is what should be getting +/-10Ghs Then throttle up on native then turbo to see the results. Check Johnnyguru.com for your PSU to see if it has a shared 12V rail also could be another reason for problems.

and now it's entirely dead.

fans stopped spinning. modules are all at zero

nothing but a light on the raspberry pi

Not sure what happened but the fans are back spinning but now the web interface is not working so I can't see if it hashing at all.

You have a temperature sensor? 

no

The raspberry pi is very fickle. It is attached to another board but always seems to move round. I shut off the power, checked all the connections and fired it back up again. This time the IP address shows up and I can't log into the interface but no modules show up and I'm hashing at zero.

OK. My 4-pin to molex cable has arrived and the blade testing has started.

I am only plugging them in one at a time for testing purposes.

Module 1 - ~190 Gh/s
Module 2 - 0 Gh/s
Module 3 - 0 Gh/s
Module 4 - ~100 Gh/s
Module 5 - 0 GH/s




Hmmmm.... not looking good.

I was very excited to see the first one hashing at 190. Then came the disappointment of 2 and 3. Then 4 climbed up but stopped at 100.

so far this is a $6,000 ant s1.

The company I ordered to 4-pin cable from just called. They are out of stock and will take 2-3 more days for that particular part to arrive in their warehouse. I asked if they had anything else that would work. They found a Y cable that they would will work and they are sending it instead. The price for the new cable is more expensive but they are price matching it and sending it anyway. I received a lot better customer service for a 93 cent part than I did after spending 6 grand.
You can buy any cheap fan and just rip the cable
Make sure it is Pvm fan
It is a cable fan- connector right?

With no documentation from AMT I'm not 100% sure what it is. The fans supplied on the unit have 3-pin connectors which worked by plugging them into the 4-pin connector on the controller.
Did mell replied what is it....?
You can ask in bitmine threads. The Psb is copy paste from there.

No. He never responded.
