lucky you, looks like they are doing one a day this may take years to finish.
I feel very lucky having a non-working miner. If it turns out it is in fact borked, I am sure I will have a replacement in a matter of days.. |

Short update:
X1 arrived earlier today, broken cable included, but luckily I had a spare.
A wire inside the case blocked the fan from spinning.
Have yet to get the unit hashing, but after lots of trial and error, I am at least able to login to the web front-end.
Does it have a pi or a custom controller in it? Pi bobsag3: Just shot you an email. |

Why so anxious for the update? It'll just say they aren't shipping yet. I know, I spoiled it. Sorry.

Just a reminder that it's BA's MO to delay bad news and to announce good news whenever it comes up, without waiting for the weekly update. Since we haven't gotten one yet you can guess what it's going to be.

Thanks to david and zurg, I now have a working miner! Will do some testing/benchmarking and report back |

1.We have found the issue that was preventing our control board from working with our ASICs.
2.We have started manufacturing the X1 with our control boards.
3.The LCD + Touch sample was supposed to be delivered today but was postponed until next Wednesday. This is the 5th factory of LCD that fails us. We are planning to ship X1s without LCD if the customers approves. We will contact each customer individually for approval before shipment.
4.We have received and tested successfully a board to connect a single X3 Hashboard to RPI. This solution was planned to be used as a testbench in order to find a solution to get multiple X3 hashboards working together and just now we’ve been able to start 2 boards at 400Ghash using the same RPI. We are still testing to see if the solution is stable and we are planning to start using this temporary solution for Rent-A-Minion programme.
5.We’ve been working daily with the 1st design company and we have been reviewing and optimizing the new design for X3 (5 hash boards, 10 chips). We are going to tape out the sample board this week or next Monday. Development of this board took longer than we had hoped as we kept modifying it based on the findings from testing. We now know that if we would have taped out this board as planned it would have failed.
6.The 2nd design company has hoped to finish the design of the Hashboard last Monday but has not finished it yet.
7.The 3rd design company did not promised us a date so far but yesterday we’ve received an almost completed design of the new Hashboard.
8.The 4th company made no progress on the design as they are still trying to find the issue with the current solution.
9.We have started developing X2 @ 240Ghash using the X3 boards as we have the boards already manufactured.
10.We are actively looking to hire more PCB designers. All interested candidates are invited to send their CV to hr at blackarrowsoftware.com
Give us a look at your circuit diagrams if you're not up to this..
What are the data rates going over the SPI bus?
Is there a web interface and does the unit initialise using DHCP?

When it rains... it pours
I'm still not sure how now, after all this time, we STILL, have no LCD's. News of this X2 makes me hope they're being built for some sort of compensation package
