Is using a custom ASIC firmware from BiXBiT free?

Our software for Antminer, Whatsminer is distributed for free. Please keep in mind that custom firmware includes Developers Fee, which is a reward for developers. Usually it is 1.8%-2.8% of the miner’s total hashrate which is automatically deducted during the work of the device.

Why the ASIC does not start after selecting a profile?

If you mean the very first run after flashing the device, it sometimes takes up to an hour for the inbuilt algorithm to finish configuring your ASIC.

How to bypass the “Cannot Find Signature” message during the flashing process of the ASIC?

Read our user manual for your specific miner version, it describes actions to eliminate this error, when it occurs.

Does the ASIC lose its warranty from the manufacturer when used with a custom firmware?

There is no definite answer. To avoid warranty issues, please use the firmware from the manufacturer.

Is it risky to use the custom firmware for ASIC from BiXBiT?

Absolutely not. All firmware revisions are thoroughly tested before each release. Moreover, all BiXBiT capacities have been running on these firmwares for many years.

Is BiXBiT AMS compatible with microprograms from other developers?

No. Our automated monitoring system is only compatible with our software.

Is it possible to revert the ASIC back to its original settings after using a custom firmware?

Yes, just bring back the official firmware in the usual way.

What level of knowledge is required to flash a miner?

We have specially made instructions for every version of the miner. Everything is described in a simple and clear way, so even a beginner can handle it. Besides, you are always backed with our team of technicians who are always in touch and willing to help.

6.2 Profile Switcher

Profile Switcher – a function for automatic profile switching when specified chip temperatures are reached.
To use this function, the temperatures must be defined at which the profile will switch either upward or downward.
In the Maximum Profile field, the highest profile is specified, above which the device will not increase the overclocking profile.
With each profile switch, the device will reboot and retune to the new profile.

[Enable Profile Switcher] – Checkbox to enable or disable the Profile Switcher option.
[Maximum Profile] – The maximum profile to which the device can switch.
[Lower Profile if Max Chip Temp Above] – Profile downgrade temperature. When any chip reaches the specified temperature, the device will lower the profile to the previous one.
[Raise Profile if Max Chip Temp Below] – Profile upgrade temperature. If the hottest chip’s temperature falls below the specified value, the device will raise the profile to the next one.
[Ignore PWM] – Ignore fan speeds. If the temperature conditions are suitable for raising the profile, the device will do so even at high fan speeds
