If you have 4 x Z9 mini, you can connect 12 boards to 3 controllers

Interesting. Have you tried this?

I have not personally tried it, but I can confirm the code will attempt to initialize 4 boards.

-j

I've tried all available Z9 and z9 mini firmwares
Z9 mini firmware from May 26 - works fine with 3 boards only + overclocking
Z9 mini firmware from August 31st - works fine with 4 boards but no overclocking above 550Mhz
Z9 firmware from August 28th - works fine with 4 boards but no overclocking above 550Mhz and all temps are messed up
Z9 Efudd's Custom Z9 OC Free - works fine with 3 boards and no overclocking above 575Mhz and all temps are messed up
Z9 smartass111's Free Unlocked - works fine with 4 boards + unlocked overclocking but all temps are messed up

Jason, do you happen to know which file needs to be updated to enable the 4th board on Z9 mini May 26th firmware? I hope it's not the cgminer.
minerStatus.html will need to be updated as well but this one is only responsible for displaying the status.

Please do not run the Z9 firmware on the mini.. Yes, I know people are saying it is working, but it really is not working the way you might think. There are certain conditions where during a retry algorithm, it will just stop functioning until the next reboot. The reason for this is the number of ASICs expected is hard coded in each binary.

Mine works fine with 4 boards, just only 3 are listed.. at least, that's what I expect. Someone else tried it as I only have a Z9 here at the moment and 3 boards.

.. so to answer your question, I expect just the status HTML. You can verify yourself by simply calling the API and/or looking a the logs to see if "4" chains are brought up (0-3) or just 3.

If you are running my 575OC on a Z9 (not mini) and the temps are messed up, then I would like to know about that because you are the very first person to say that out of 1038 downloads (as of this response).

Thank you,

Jason

I apologize for the confusion, all my tests above have been completed on a Z9 mini so absolutely no objections on the work you have done with your custom firmware, in fact, great job!!! And good luck with adding additional features you're currently working on!
Back to Z9 mini firmware from May 26,with unlocked overclocking, only the fist 3 boards are hashing, the fourth one connected to the fourth connector is not displayed in stats and not hashing, the board/heat sinks are cold so it's not hashing at all and updating only the HTML didn't help.
