Im trying to disable the beeper ringing option buy it keeps setting back to on. Anyone know the solution to this? I have the miners in an office and can't have these things going off like crazy if the internet goes down.

Im thinking about just ripping the beeper of the mobo...

the only solution is to carefully take the top board off (its not screwed on or anything, it just unplugs), and put some tape (i used electrical tape) and put it over the speaker.


even if you uncheck the box, they still beep when they lose internet.


Yes, but aren't S5's known to sometimes overheat when the internet goes down and there's no hashing going on?  I personally added a rear fan and wired it to a full 12v so it's always running full out even if the internet goes down and the controller board signals slow or no fan speed.

I have had one since batch one.  Never once have I had it go crazy on heat when losing internet.  It makes a beep as my alarm is turned on.

But it stops  hashing.  And this causes it to actually cool down at least on one I'm using.
Notlist3d I agree with you as I have had my internet down for days and never seen anything over heat just a lot of beeping. It would be easy to check by unplugging the Ethernet cable and watch the watts at the wall.
