One more trouble: I can not access miner configuration using password 12345678. I'm getting reply that password is wrong. Is it possible to reset this password?

Thank you


UPD: Solved:
telnet to the miner and opened file:
cd /home/www/conf
vi password

password is written there

For anyone curious, you can turn these A4+'s into A6s. The control board has enough ports for 8 hashboards and 4 fans. I changed over 30 A4s so I only have to monitor 15 ASICs now. Way better. The inno support guy gave me an older firmware that supports it, the latest only ran 6 boards total. He said there should be a new firmware today or tomorrow that supports all 8 again.

Thanks, update_180129 appears to have no issues running all 8 chains.


Just made the exact same change to 10 miners today. Appears to work just great! Along with halving the work upkeeping them, the best benefit (IMHO) is having spare controller boards now. Smiley
I use separate PSUs for each tube, and this has no negative impact either.

FYI, I did the 0129 upgrade on 10 A4+ today and it seemed to all go smoothly.  I did notice that one of my boxes was running 471 hash rate so I took a look and found that the ASC2 card was missing from the miner status/minerinfo section.  I made sure all the cables, power and data ribbon were all secured and the LED shows the board is getting power.  I upgraded the firmware (0129) twice again to no avail.  So I'm wondering what I should try next.  I cannot say with certainy if this was caused by the firmware...I have a feeling not because the 24 hashrate shows as 465 on the monitoring page (i didn't bother to look before i guess).

Any ideas on what to do next?


omg i got this problem too Sad

420mhz all other 620 ~

Me too. Upgraded to 180129.bin, and lost ASC 2 on its next reboot. Have tried to downgrade to 180112.bin witout luck, and the light on ASC 2 is still lit. I'm in touch with Innosilicon support and will keep you posted. Please let me know if you sort out this problem before I do.

Update: I downgraded to http://www.innosilicon.com.cn/download/update_171229.bin, and everything went back to normal. All four hashboards now hashing on full speed.

Did you get such solution from Innosilicon support or it's you idea? I also solved the problem by this way, but I'm not sure that's right idea because the same miner had the same problem before and I solved it in another way (I think it was just luck).

After a week working on 29.12.2017 firmware one chain lost again and no tricks with upgrading and downgrading do not help. Any other ideas?

Hi, it's my first time on this site.

I ordered a couple of Innosilicon A4+ miners. I was having problems with getting them started, however providing them with a dynamic IP did the trick.

The issue is that I want to connect to one of my miners however as it has a dynamic IP, I do not know how. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks Guys!

Hi, you can reset IP to default by pressing IP SET button within 10-20 seconds. It's located on the left side from Internet cabble. Chains LEDs shall become OFF and then you can unpress IP SET button. You will reset IP to 192.168.1.254.  To avoid such problems, you have to set static IP from web interface of miner or you can fix IP in your router with MAC address of the miner.
BTW, some routers could provide you with statistic which IP address are leased you you can try to try each one to find miners without IP reset.

Hi to everybody!
Need you help with Innosilicon A4+ LTCmaster miners:
Miner Type   17
Hw Version   G19
Build Date   Sat Dec 9 02:33:32 CST 2017

After one week of working it stopped working as wollows:
All green indicators are working but it does not mine and I can not connect web interface, just see the following:

I rebooted manu times, but no luck. What can I do? May be there is a possibility to upgrade a firmware through telnet?


P.S. One of miners lost one chain, but it was returned back after few reboots, firmware upgrade and clicking "Auto Search" button on "Voltage" block of "Miner General Configuration" tab.

P.S.S. sometimes miners shows huge Running time (above 14 or 17 thousands days!!!) it fixes by rebooting.

Thank you for any help.



You are running old FW and sounds like the issue with few people (incl. me) have had.

Try:
Code:
1) telnet to miner IP at port 8100
2) login: root
3) password: innot1t2
4) rm -rf /lib/python3.4/__pycache__/*.pyc
5) reboot
Hopefully you have working miner after this point, then go ahead and upgrade your firmware via web interface.
Link to the latest FW (as of 04.02.2018): http://www.innosilicon.com.cn/download/update_180129.bin

Thank you.
I done above mentioned actions, but no result - web interface still not responding and I can not update firmware. And after those actions pool shows this miner as inactive. Is there any other way to update firmware through telnet?


I found that mining process was not executing:
Code:
ps|grep innominer
  840 root       0:00 syslogd -f /etc/syslog.conf -O /tmp/log/innominer.log -s 1024 -b 5
 4269 root       0:00 grep innominer

after that I executed it manually:
Code:
./home/inno_tools/run.sh

and mining process was started, but I still can not access web interface to upgrade FW.

I belive I can upgrade is by loading FW .bin file to miner and running /home/inno_tools/upgrade.py, but I'm not familiar with Python and can not understand how to feed upgrade.py with FW .bin file Sad((

Can anybody help me?Huh

Thank you in advance.


UPD. "OK" and "ERROR" LEDs on control board are OFF.

UPD1: Solved the problem by deleting all .pyc files with command  
Code:
find / -name "*.pyc" -delete
