Here is the guide to show you how to recover Antminer E9 control board program by SD card flashing.

This method applies to the following situations:

• The miner can only use the default factory workers.

Preparing Tools

• Software: decompression tool (WINRAR recommended), Antminer E9 card flash firmware. 

Flashing Instructions :

1. Insert MicroSD card into computer and format to FAT32.
2. Unzip the downloaded image file and copy the contents to the MicroSD card.
3. Remove the MicroSD card from the computer and insert it into the card slot on the control board.
4. Power on the control board. Allow about 30 seconds for the files to load automatically. When loaded, the green indicator light will be steady on.
5. Remove the MicroSD and restart the miner. In over 30 seconds, please reboot the miner. (NOTE: do not power off during the restart process; power failure will cause the OTP to fail to turn on which also damages the control board.)
