I’ve had a full unit since august and it’s worked great without any issues. Recently I got a standard unit (batch 3) to connect to my full unit. I can get the standard unit mining for about 10 minutes and then it goes to inactive status. Then I have to power it off and on then restart mining to get it to start again. But it only will mine for a few minutes again before going inactive. The full unit continues mining without any issues. The red light on the standard unit has the slow red blinking light like it’s mining but it’s showing inactive in the dashboard. I’m running apollo web v0.3.2
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Hmm, yeah I've been having the same exact problem for a while. I was hoping this most recent update would fix it, but looks like I'm still having the same issue. I have 1 full unit and 2 standard units, for some reason all 3 of them wont stay hashing at the same time and one of them will drop off after a while. It's always just one that drops off and they all keep blinking the slow pattern.
Do the yellow lights on the bottom continue to flash? The mean the board is still hashing but something is up with the USB connection. You can also try connecting the standard units to a USB hub and trying different USB ports. If a power reset/SD card re-flash does not solve it with latest firmware you can alway contact support and well take care of you.
I experienced the same issue, except that my standard unit doesn't go active at all anymore. Solid red light, no blinking yellow underneath, while connected via USB. Full unit will continue hashing as normal. Sent an email through the contact form on the futurebit site.
Hello guys, just wanted to give an update on something that should have been pretty obvious, but my standard unit that was having difficulty staying on is now running smoothly again. I had actually not been doing much maintenance and went and cleared out A LOT of dust that had managed to accumulate inside the devices. After doing that, it seemed like the unit that was having difficulty hashing continuously started working well again. I think it's been stable for a little over a week now which is a huge improvement.
Just wanted to toss that out there for people having problems with their miners that might be confused as what to do, again something that should have been obvious but I'm sure I'm not the only person who forgets to dust regularly. It may just be that instead of anything wrong with the device or the firmware.
