My sma detached from the rsma pigtail when I was trying to attach a different antenna. Is there a way to fix this or test to see if the antenna is working?

Hi, can you advice on that antena rp-smaF connector, I had an accident with lmr400 cable being very rigid so that it got de-soldered when i tried to hook it up. Do I have to solder it again or is it just for for positioning?

If you have solder iron the best to solder it back! Its for secure mounting the rp-sma you are right. But the big risk when you tear down the tiny u.fl connector from the lora module, that's fragile. I advise to use an external flexible mid cable before your rigid coax so can avoid such situations. I do the same (like a 20cm rp-sma extender cable)

It's your welcome 😊 I would advise them to add an SMA connector for wifi, appart that its a really nice robust hotspot as I experienced and see on the RF HW design side.

where does the pairing button go ? Does it connect to raspberry or is it connected to the module itself ?

Not checked but should be connected to a RPi GPIO to notify the OS

Hello ser, what specifications are there in the pie in sensecap m1? I have the same one. Solo in location, 0.1 hnt earnings in one year. I want to extract the pie and use it for other things now. But once I get the assurance that it is at least a 4gb model. Can you confirm?

What's stopping someone from taking it apart and using the raspberry pi 4 platform instead of using it as a miner? These are being given away for free in Canada. What's stopping people from that? Since from what I've read this is based on raspberry pi 4

Nothing stop them, they just need reolace the sd card with Rasbian OS and voilá you got a cool mini PC 🤩

That's exactly what I've done... I built a 3d printer controller using one. Repurpose the technology if you no longer need the miner. You just need to load the required image onto the SD and you have a computer doing anything you want!

Hi! Probably its not showing anything as its very easy to turn of the HDMI signal in the RPi via a single parameter line in configuration files. However nothing hold you back to replace the SD card and run it with Raspbian OS, I did it on a few of my old miners :)

here is the guide for flashing a new sd card: www.sensecapmx.com/docs/sensecap-m1/m1-troubleshooting/#how-to-flash-a-new-image-to-a-new-micro-sd-card take care that you will need the ‘config.json‘ file from your old SD card. Also note that you will be not able to read that on a Windows PC. You need a Linux PC or what I did is read that and copy on an Android phone, using its sd card socket and file manager :) Good luck!
