Attention!

We spent a lot of time and efforts to develop this firmware, here is a Devfee – 2.7%, nevertheless its more profitable to use this firmware, profit is up to 15-20% compare to standard firmware.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.First go to Upgrade section to install this firmware. After installation please open the Mining Configuration section, choose the Profile you need, and  turn ASICBoost on if required.

2. Chips will get autotuned within an hour after profile activation. The autotune function setup chips parameters for their optimal performance, controlling the frequency in red and yellow zones.
3. If you experience a sudden hashrate drop down to 0, please reboot S9 manually, power off the ASIC, unplug the pins and then plug them back. This will fix it in most cases.
4. If you get a 404 error in place of the main page – please hit CTRL+F5
5. WHen using immersion liquid for cooling ASIC S9/S9i/S9j can be overclocked to 20-21 th/s. This firmware lets you control the fan speed and setup fan check.
6.  We are not responsible for the consequences that may occur after installing the firmware, all responsibility for the consequences after the installation you assume.
