Software Preparation

Mobile APP - Avalon Family (for Avalon Nano 3S’s configuration and management)

Avalon Nano 3S Startup

Before powering on, ensure the Wi-Fi module is in the USB interface.

If Avalon Nano 3S does not automatically turn on, press and hold Power Button for 2 seconds to turn it on manually

Nano 3S First-Run Troubleshooting

If the Avalon Nano 3S powers on but does not show stable mining results, check the setup in this order. First, confirm the miner and phone are on the same network during configuration. Second, verify the pool URL, worker name, and wallet address; one wrong character can prevent accepted shares. Third, wait long enough for the dashboard to show meaningful hashrate because small miners can fluctuate more visibly than large ASICs. Fourth, move the unit closer to the router if the interface loads slowly or disconnects. In 2026, many support tickets come from network and pool-entry errors rather than hardware faults. Add screenshots of each successful state so beginners know what “working normally” looks like.
