Installation guide L7

L7 firmware setup and configuration are not available through the Hive OS mobile application (view only).
For the initial firmware installation, you should use the microSD file.
If you face troubles with the ASIC miner start or receive error statuses, please get in touch with our support team via [email protected] and provide a link for a particular worker.

Prerequisites

An SD card of up to 32 GB is required.

Installation steps

1. Download the archive with the L7 firmware file:

SD card file: https://download.hiveos.farm/asic/L7/SD-L7_xilinx-Hiveon-latest.zip

2. Format an SD card to FAT32 with MBR (Master Boot Record) partition scheme. 3. Unzip the downloaded file and copy its content to the MicroSD card. There are files in the root folder. Fill them, and ASIC will connect to Hiveon OS after flashing:

FARM_HASH—in this file, insert FARM_HASH from the farm settings
HIVE_HOST_URL—insert the API server, if it is essential to replace it. If the file is empty, the standard server is used (api.hiveos.farm)

Next, turn off your ASIC and perform the following actions:

1. Insert the SD into the control board's slot. 2. Turn on your ASIC. 3. Wait for the autotuning to be done.

Allow your ASICs to undergo the autotuning process, which might take up to 2 hours. Refrain from interfering and keep the devices powered on to ensure a successful error-free operation.

Formatting a microSD card

To minimize efforts for microSD card formatting, it is available to write the file with the help of the BalenaEtcher application.

1. From http://download.hiveos.farm/asic/, download an archive with the necessary firmware version. An archive is marked with a special icon for better recognition.
