So i have got 1/3 of prismas on Friday so far. But now to be honest i dont want to get the rest . I thought after so many Asic miners was made these would work without much hassle.
But its exactly the opossite . Was much easier to set up 5 gpus litecion mining rig than this crap.
I was trying to make this work for 2 days without any luck. Most of the time i get these stupid "BET0: Unexpected value received" or sync errors.
Boards are connected in the right order with the switches being 100% correct.
I managed to get it running twice on pull power , just randomly , suddenly was running fine. Sometimes it boots up one or two boards , or just few chips, keeping 100ghs - 500ghs hashrate....

I have tried these tricks with switching to RM cgminer and back to AM , no help.
Turning cgminer off , unpluging cable , plugging back and running cgminer , nothing.
Imaged Rpi with original minera , compiled cgminer , same problem.
Tried raspbian with compiled cgminer , no change.
Tried even different computer , with windows, Linux mint and Ubuntu. Still getting the same errors.
Changing all the cables , trying different PSU's , plugging in different Usb slots on the Rpi.
Tried running the boards separately , sometimes they boot up , sometimes they dont , but never on full power.


So i guess there is not much hope to run this crap , unless someone has miraculously manage to get this work?
