I received my base unit and an add-on hashing unit today. I have both powered by a external server power supply. The external unit was attached to the main unit. The external unit's front LED started flashing right away, but no lights from the main unit's front LED. I have an ethernet cable plugged into the base unit and it's lights were flashing, but nothing ever displayed on the HDMI display. I let if it boot for several minutes and the main unit got warm - fan was working and I could see one RED and one green (flashing) LEDs on the main units hashboard. This matched what LED's were lit on the add-on hashing unit. I checked my router and saw no new DHCP devices getting an address. The cable & switch port worked with a PC before moving the cable to the Apollo BTC.

Any thoughts?

Are the yellow LEDs on the bottom flashing rapidly? This means its connected to your network and hashing.

If so you need to do double check your router or IP scanner, one of the IPs is the Apollo.

For monitor out issues, try powering off your display and power it back on when its connected to HDMI port on the Apollo, this has worked on some displays we tested. Some displays won't work at all, so try another display if you have one or your TV and see if it works that way.

Thanks for response John. Just checking my console shows that hashboard #1 is now showing inactive in the UI, but the bottom of the unit has 4 lights on the hashboard flashing. When I check the pool console, it looks like only one hashboard is mining at this pool. I will not reboot until I hear back from you in case you need some info.

Right now, the Ethernet port only has the green light flashing. On the bottom of the SBC, I have a green led (near the side of the ports) and there is a red LED in the corner by the M.2 drive card.

I will check the monitor next - have to go find a long HDMI cable and/or another monitor.

Ok so it has successfully booted, your just not getting an internet connection. Id double check your ethernet wire (ie check if you plugged it in a WAN port instead of LAN port) and router settings in case something is not configured correctly there.

John - I swapped cables with another PC and my office and after a reboot, the Apollo BTC's Ethernet yellow went crazy and it logged into the network. The original cable is working fine on the PC with no issues.

I went thru the wizard and put in password and mining pool info. Once in the UI, I see the node synchronization going strong with 10/32 connections and about 65% sync'ed after about 6 hours.

I started up the mining about last night and I noticed that hashboard 1 starting mining right away, hashboard 0 quite some time to show any consistent hashrates. Running overnight, the dashboard was showing expected rates over night.

Awesome...could have been a weird type of ethernet cable that the Apollos network controller couldn't handle. The USB connected hashboards is a known issue we are trying to figure out if its a firmware or general STM32 USB driver issue. Usually a power cycle on the standard unit will fix it if its taking a really long time to connect.
