Fan-Fail protection, LCD message changes, more DCDC temp options & more!
Major changes in this release:
FAN-FAIL protection - The way this works is, if any die DCDC's are detected 10C over the user specified temp threshold(and DCDC protection is enabled) OR DCDC's are over 115C(and DCDC protection is enabled) then those dies will be shut off & bfgminer restarted. A warning in big red letters will be thrown up on the STATUS page of webgui, also if using the LCD, its message will switch to "Poss. Fan-Fail!". Both the STATUS page message & LCD message will say what cube(as labeled per webgui advanced page) was flagged as having a possible fan failure.
To clear fan-fail message on status page & LCD... a reboot of the pi will be needed.
there is no way to physically detect an actual fan failure as it seems there is no sort of fan monitoring / control on these boards, so thats why I came up w/ the rule based fan failure detection.
Minor changes:
- More options in DCDC dropdown menu
- Added wall watts estimation to ADVANCED page. Assumes 85% PSU effeciency plus power required for pi, controllerboard & fans.
- Replaced default KNC version message on LCD w/ GenTarkin's Mod version information
Minor fixes:
- Refined hostname(minername) handling & backupname file handling
- Removed bfgminer.sh from git & builds to avoid overwriting peoples custom command line arguments for bfgminer.
