Re: Announcement: Bitmain launches AntMiner solution, 0.68 J/GH on chip
Anybody have problems with their AntMiner Just shutting itself off Randomly ??
sounds like a faulty or underpowered psu. Is your ant overclocked? and what is your psu that you are using for it?
My First Unit was a 600 Watt one ...
my Any is not Over clocked at all
The new Power Supply is a Coolmax ZU-700B 700 Watt
Have you tried putting a +5v load on it? I have that PSU (coolmax zu-700b) and it requires a +5v load to stay running. I connected an old CDROM drive to mine and it runs 24/7 just fine.
Connected a CDROM drive to it and comes up mines for like 5 minutes and still shuts itself off ... I took the power supply from a Scrypt mining box we upgraded and it ran fine in there , Unless the ANT is defective then im like not so sure about shipping to China .
It sure sounds like a PSU problem. In the Setup & Troubleshoot guide, scroll down to the Troubleshooting section and follow the steps in bullet point 3 to make sure the PSU is setup/connected correctly and to test each blade individually. If each blade runs fine by itself then it's a PSU issue according to the guide.

Well ... So i decided last night to try something and it seems to work at least for the last 12 hours , I hooked a mother board up to the power supply also .. and put it in bios , Now its staying on .. Weird but hopefully this works long term !
Did you not do the jump wire trick?
+1
all you need is a paperclip or other 0.5" wire to short the PS-ON function to have the powersupply operate without a mobo
