Any way to hard reset the unit?

Re-flash the sd card with the latest firmware. That will erase all settings and give you a clean start.


worked like a charm. thanks

Hello,

A bit worried about my Apollo.

I have a solid red front led

miner IP and UI working proper.

Miner wont mine, fan wont turn on.

I have tried reboots, restarts, in UI and also via turning power supply on and off.

reconnected pcie cables and eth.


Any way to hard reset the unit?


Thanks in advance,
Davis

Hi there,
Just received the Apollo in the mail. Having issues getting power to the unit.

Running a 650 w evga 80 gold plus(psu for my gaming PC)

First try: simply plug in 8 pin pcei to psu and 2 6 pins on the other end to the Apollo.   No power at PC or appolo

2nd,3,4,5 try: unplug everything from psu. Jump MB plug on psu.
Turn psu on. Using multimeter confirmed power to the MB plug and pcei cable plugged into psu but not appolo.

Turn off, plug into Apollo. Turn psu on. NOTHING

seems to me like I should at least be able to get  power to the Apollo after disconnecting from PC and only powering Apollo.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks
Dayday

HIYA!

The 3-10 usb hub linked above is $160!!!? I see some others in this thread griping about the cost.

So I come today to bring you all a solution: 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NBTS71S/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B07NBTS71S&linkCode=as2&tag=dodailey-20&linkId=8486ebbbfefeb317031fd0ecb8ea915d

on sale right now for around $70 usd on prime.


I'm currently running 5 Moonlanders on this bad boy. there is room for a 6th.

I have bought and tested a lot of these usb hubs on amazon and this one is the best I've found. No more "asic stopped hashing attempting to restart" errors. even after overclocking.


Happy mining! Smiley

Anyone in the US, any hints on what hubs can be found for under $100 to work with a few of these?  Cool

I have tried most of the powered usb hubs on amazon this one is the only one that has worked well for me.

I currently have 5 Moonlanders running on one of these hubs. Pulling close to 20Mh/s total without tinkering with the over clocking techniques.

Happy Mining!
