![]() Next make sure you have 7zip as we will be decompressing a couple of archive types that the native Windows tools won’t work on. Links: AliExpress*, *, Amazon.ca*, *, .jp*, .uk*, *, Amazon.es*, *, *, *, *, *, Amazon.sg* Software Requirementsįirst grab Etcher if you don’t already have it (we need this to write the image to a SD card). There’s no benefit on the Pi for A2 right now so get whichever is cheaper/available. The application class (A1) means random I/O speeds (very important when running an OS) have to meet a higher standard. The SanDisk Extreme A1-A2 SD card has the best scoring SD card on Pi Benchmarks for years and is second in popularity only to the SanDisk Ultra (often included in combo kits). Here’s a recommendation I frequently give for Raspberry Pis if you don’t already have one: You need to have a blank SD card to write the recovery image to. The Goldshell box miners have an empty SD card slot on the back of them. They certainly should though as they are incredibly useful and it only took a few minutes to fix the miners once I had all the right pieces. Unfortunately Goldshell does not publicly post these images on their GitHub page like they do with the regular firmware. We need to flash the firmware using a SD card flashed with a recovery image. The process to recover from an event like this will probably not be surprising if you have owned other ASIC miners. ![]() If you are seeing one of these two conditions it’s likely your firmware is stuck in a broken state (especially if this happened during/after a firmware upgrade like mine did). It also had network link light activity (that never stopped) but it never acquired an IP address. The Starcoin miner on the other hand permanently illuminated both the red and blue lights and stayed stuck on. It had network link lights for a few seconds upon startup and then it would go dark other than the 2 blinking indicator lights. One Mini DOGE however started blinking both the red and blue light very briefly every couple of seconds. Let’s begin! Diagnostic LightsĪfter I initially tried to upgrade to 2.2.0 using the Goldshell web interface 23 / 25 miners upgraded fine. With that caveat/warning given, I have 25 of these miners and only 1-2 were bought directly from Goldshell in the first place so I was not worried about losing my warranty or support period from them but you should be careful here and only proceed if you understand this. Even then it might still be worth a try because it wouldn’t surprise me if they hand out these images like Halloween candy even if you’re out of warranty. I will cover what I used to do so and where to find them in the guide but it is at your own risk and if you aren’t outside of your warranty support period you should almost certainly contact Goldshell instead. I was able to upgrade 23 miners successfully but I had one Mini DOGE and one ST-BOX fail during the upgrade.Īfter a substantial Google journey and finding some very helpful posts on reddit I was able to recover both of them without waiting for Goldshell’s response on the situation. Recently Goldshell released the 2.2.0 update which includes the new “Goldshell Hub” (featured above) which is basically a cloud control center for your miners. Thanks to a perfectly identical latency, users also get a coherent sum out of a line-array or point-source speaker stacked on any VIO subwoofer, avoiding any additional processing or verification.Goldshell Hub – Introduced in firmware 2.2.0 This way, users don’t need to bother about the inherent latency of a single cabinet, and they will be able to align the PA very quickly, even by simply using a rangefinder to measure the distance between speakers. Also, firmware 2.0 drives phase response uniformity across all VIO subwoofers, resulting not only in a more consistent performance of combined VIO subwoofer models but also in the smoothest coupling with any VIO top.įirmware 2.0 standardizes latency across the entire VIO series, regardless of speaker type, acoustic loading or DSP build. For example, the behavior of all VIO line arrays in the low-mid area has been standardized, to the great advantage of hybrid arrays coherence. Moreover, the freshly designed DSP workflow brings all VIO systems’ phase responses to the same page. Thanks to firmware 2.0, every VIO cabinet makes the most of its onboard DSP featuring linear phase FIR filters, resulting in a perfectly consistent phase response when assembling various VIO products in one single setup.
