As far as i understand pi can be powerd from usb only is that right? And work without external adapter
If yes
then 1. If your hub is powered one power it from PSU 5v then PI shal get power from HUB
2. If hub is not powered one cut usb cable Pi to Hub and feed red wire with 5V from PSU
OK?
And disable WiFi better to remove the card if it is not built in
 

If pi needs external adapter just take 12V or 5V or watever it needs from psu. Find a power jack and wire it accourdingly
In that case cut red - usb cable from pi to hub to avoid overfeeding
The RPI can power through miniUSB and normal USB too.
This is a Model A, i have only one USB port and i dont have ethernet.. i need the wifi.
The HUB is powered from the RPI AND from the hex16a2 boards. From the Hex16a2 miniUSB connector i can have 5v.
The RPI is powered from a seperate ~1A 5v power supply AND from the USB hub.
Ok start with removing separate ~1A 5v power supply that shall do the trick with common ground
If hub is crappy and Pi needs more power just gently cut usb Pi cable cut red wire +5V and spike it with Molex red from PSu or whatever you find is convenient for you
Are you in Germany?
PS: I am going dude see you later do not forget to test your boards one buy one first to see if all three are OK

On low clock its the same error.
Same as above dude do as i suggest
lsusb sorry i missed it
common ground for everything
cut red wire of usb data cable
change hub

Something is not right in your setup

and pls post top output so we can see cpu usage
So without external pi power? only usb to the hub? With wifi disabled?

So, u say i should remove the powering from USB hub to the boards?
I cannot set common ground for all, or what you mean with this?
As far as i understand pi can be powerd from usb only is that right? And work without external adapter

And finally there is always a chance a board to be faulty try all three one by one to see if there are disconnects

I use the normal clock and volt, but they still doubling.. This should not ben happen.. and not spoken from the hash performance..
Any ideas?
I have a GigaByte Odin plus 700W Power supply: GE-G700-C1
They come with two cable of molex:
#1 cable, there are 3 molex connectors and i use only 2 from it
#2 cable, there are 1 molex connectors and i use this.
11.68 volt is end of the cable.
lsusb?
what is your hub?
Make sure you power everything usb hub boards + pi from a SINGLE power supply - The goal is to HAVE COMMON GROUND from PSU only
Once again if you are in Germany use this pls
http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00602C91U/ref=pe_386171_38075861_TE_item
I will say a crapy hub
there is internal buffer 64 nonces so basically you are reading same result twice with big delay. Each nonce is checked against it and if dupe - which happens is not sent to the pool
OFF boards (appearing and disappearing) is not a good sign or 12V problem or USB issues
Fanaly you can cut red wire - PI to HUB cable - strip usb cable and cut red wire to avoid overfeeding pi USB port

Just wanna state that the antminer S1 from the first firesale of 30 units @ 2.4btc showed up =) and as he stated, because I pointed out a bug on the site, there was a free U1 USB miner sitting in it ...woot
Smoothest ASIC purchase ever.
Please setup a separate pool account so you can be able totrace exactly your income and be so kind to post if you ever Meade btc roi
Thank you very much
If you wish of course

Man everyone wants to bitch about price.. if you don't like it.. don't buy it.

Why is Hex Miner infected by Trojan/MSIL.BitCoinMiner.b

Ever since I used your software I have had over 0.2 BTC stolen from my wallet.

This was Downloaded from your site.

Please explain yourselves
That is a big nonce for me.
Just a question how many btc do you have in your wallet. If I made a troian I will make sure that it will steal 100% of your wallet and all wallets around
No serious
1 use tplink and build it yourself first make sure to check the cgminer patch cgminer itself and whatever you want
2. I do as follows on a separate PC which goes to the bank only I keep my wallet so before you found out that your coins are gone make new btc address and transfer your cons there
To all who use hex miner guy's do you have missing btc for your wallets?
Most probably your av does not like exe name and that is why it says it is a virus

Mining Stably, Delivering on Time, if not Pre-Shipped.

Now we need only 1 confirmation after you paid the bitcoin. As we will double check before we finally ship, We believe double spending attack is not rationale.
2.2BTC/Unit, Shipping included.

The first batch of Antminer buyer is going to ROI in a day when I write this post

When Bitmain first introduce the miners on the market, we sell on 2013/11/23 a 180GH/s ANTMINER at 4.75 BTC. some people fear the increasing of difficulty, while some other community members bought it.

What if these miners started to mine on 2013/11/25, how many coins has the S1 mined, assuming not overclocked, 0.10$/KWH, 836USD/BTC? The number is 4.697BTC, electricity bill deducted. The miner who bought S1 on 2013/11/23 @4.75BTC per unit needs only another day to enjoy the ROI when we write this post,  without overclocking.

Now according to our model, which has been proved accurate or conservative in the past, we believe the 2.2BTC is profitable price for the miners, and a fair price to distribute the future mining revenue between the Bitmain and the mining community.


Good news Smiley   To hose who say 2.2BTC is too high, you need to review your calculations - difficulty is beginning to settle a little towards 20% increase per jump which results much differently than those 96%/month estimations. I think that at 2.2BTC, you should expect it to mine 2.1-2.6BTC in its useful lifetime

I have units from the original 4.75 and 4.25 auctions/group buys, and looking at the income they have provided, they have made *approximately* 4.3 and 3.95 BTC each - a little lower than bitmain's estimate, perhaps because shipping time/delays and system setup/down time were not factored in. - In either case, both systems need to pay off far less than 2.2BTC of their costs Smiley

The product is simple and fairly energy-efficient. it would be nice to see an option added to purchase units with a secondary fan installed, or perhaps slightly quieter fans, Considering I have added a second $20 PWM fan on each unit ive bought so far
Super
http://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty
My estimate is around 35%
Second please let some who participated in those group buys to comment reality against projection
By reality I mean separate pool/s account and the ACTUAL TRACEABLE income
Have in mind that in reality mining income is at least 5% less iff all is super fine during the period and you do not need calc for that

And in 25 you will get tracking if all is good q1 march delivery
And while you are counting days until March there will be two jumps with 40% this is my feeling
And so on and on just two magic words ASIC on stock reliable delivery and the fact that there are no deals around does not mean that we have to buy that is all
I'm not sure why you're saying that if everything goes well that a unit that ships on Jan 25th will arrive in March. While it's a possibility if there are huge customs delays, the last one I ordered was on Saturday night, it shipped on Monday and it's scheduled for delivery today.
It was my mistake about March but your are too fast I have just edited my post but it is too late
The problem With 25 jan shipment is that China is closing for ny and there is just on business day which means that it shall be out of people's republic before that the route is going Taiwan probably and when it reaches there they will be closed Grin

Check your math dude. In Feb diff which is unknown since something big is happening behind the scene not more that 1 BTC and i doubt even at that price it will ever make roi

Any way Bitmain is a smart businessmen with a good record which deserves our respect . I wish all of us the customers to be at least half the smart compared to him
Besides CNY is knocking at the door and that is only time for most of the pople to meet their families. I would not blame China DHL or EMS employees if they mess up something with some orders and this get delivered in march. For sure Bitmain will do his part and provide all of his customers with tracking as promised

Your numbers don't match your claim.
I updated them (changed the difficulty to the 2.07B estimate for the next jump, changed power to 360W, and removed the BTC/USD increase, changed the lower diff increase/jump to 5%)
bitcoin mining profit calculator
Even with those changes that calculator is showing break even in June, with difficult 11x higher than the next jump at 22B

You forgot that there is at least 1 diff jump before those get to mining. I would love to buy more of those, but those are just too pricey for the risk. 1.5 BTC I could manage.
No I didn't, that starts at 2.07B difficulty which is the prediction for the next jump on Jan 25th. The current difficulty is 1.79B.

Hello Bitmain,

Thanks for offer, you are very good and trust company with on stock miners (i have ANTminer), but:

2.2 BTC will never make ROI on miners with next difficulty - next extimate 2300000000 will make 1.27 BTC/month.
So miner 2.2 BTC will never refund in mining :|

It's the best offer in the market for now, but the price is to big for the market reality.

Maybe You are developing something stronger that S1?

Regards.

I think that the right price is 2 btc

KNC is going to be late in the game if they are talking Q2.

KnC is already in the game with several successful batches of Jupiters and Saturn, with their 28 nm process.

I'm talking about their next generation (20nm) here, that is announced for Q2.

There will be a flood this February!

I think the flood will start sooner, it might very well have started already. Don't forget factory "burnins"

Well somebody is defintely buring in their rigs!  You don't double in hash rate in a single day!
And there was a test run just before diff increase 5-6 hours. However the guys are smart enough to wait a little bit to max out their profit and they are on full power now Cry

They are presently pushing 800MH/s on Middlecoin
http://www.middlecoin.com/reports/1M3jtksp1upR33SX1VzeCfH5x9fc6zKykR.html

Anyone still thinking about getting into GPU mining better give up now. This is going to go down exactly the same way bitcoin did. GPUs will be dead soon.

At 60 khs per chip? Na...GPUs arent dead for another two or three years.

Even the others (Alpha & Fibonacci) aren't that fast per chip, the main advantage is power and management.


AND They are not keen selling them. With prices ppl suggest here. If you have Machine laying golden eggs while none else have why would you sell it. Also this is totally GEN 1 hardware and totally in line what first SHA Bitcoin ASIC:s were performing. The Chip is not super performer but what it does it does it 1/40th of the Electricity of GPU rig

PPL are blinded by current GH and TH of BTC ASIC. If and when they get mass sampling of this chip what would stop them putting 160 chips in a Blade taking 70-100W and producing massive 9.6MH/s thats 12 GPU rig right there in 1 single ~70W blade.

Price? dont dream about it. They will mine and overprice the chip to cover R&D costs and get healty profit before dumping them into the market. If you are first you are First.

specs are here

https://github.com/gridseed/gc3355-doc/blob/master/GC3355_DataSheet.pdf

And holy shit, it claims to do 59.6 KH/s while using 0.44 W

This is 0.00738 W/KH/s versus 0.300 W/KH/s for a GPU -- a 40.7 fold increase in efficiency.  This is about the same increase in efficiency as compared to BTC when ASICMINER first introduced its chips; I'm curious to see how they did it.

Wise sikke:)

http://users.atw.hu/ifa/duplazas.png

Here you are!

SOMEBODY HELP!!

I have 3 boards and I manage by RPI and when they are running sometimes they compile the same block. There are lots of duplicate blocks in cgminer.  
How can i solve it? Can somebody help me? Any ideas?

Thanks:)

At least provided us with screenshot & your setting.

Your setting to high.
Best results 23-24 Gh/s (16 chips) in terms of stability and clocking are observed at 1100mV core voltage + 1500 MHz Clock
+1 on Zich,
besides:
you can always calc your pool reject rate % as A/R*100 in your case for hexc 1: 440/17088*100 = 2.57% - this depends on variance also

If all is good including your pool conectivity it should be below 0.5%

But once again az Zich said try it 1500/1100 you should be getting stable 23Gh+ per board Smiley
And check your psu with your setings you should be able to provide about (guess) 9A/12 per board. move your molexes on different lines. If they are on a single line voltage drop is huge + the chance for them to melt also
From a point on OC matters for your power bill only + increasing the chance for board failure Wink And decreasing your hashrate also. Life sucks sometimes Grin

Looks like DHL said my miners are coming tomorrow.  I am excite.  Grin
Nice,

Here is the hub i am using for nonstop operation of HEX boards + TpLink host

http://www.amazon.de/dp/B00602C91U/ref=pe_386171_38075861_TE_item - it is MTT hub and working great no issues or whatsoever

I am recommending highly this one and nothing else.

Happy mining:)


It doesn't need a powered hub right?

I got one hub that I still have lying around from my block erupter days.  Grin

I'm just worried I might not have enough molex power plugs. lol (Ordered some of Amazon. Might take a while)
Are you waiting for HEXA2 (Avalon 2) boards?
If yes according to marto post they will feed the hub with 5V. However if you gona use them with tp-link and you have it in hand i suggest to run lsusb when hub is connected and see if tplink supports that hub. It happen to me with some d-links that they work with PC but tp-link is not seeing them

Once again if you live in Germany and want nonstop operation just by the one I suggested. I can guarantee you you will not regret Wink



Yep. I hope it does (Worked fine on a Ras Pi I owned)

In America man. lol.  Yep. I have that tp-link router. Haven't flashed it yet though.

OK..
Then flash it and check if it sees the hub with lsub Wink

By the way i am trying new timing for nanos, because i think we are loosing some speed with latest 3.10
driver-hexmineru.c line 176
   if (long_sleep) {
         //applog(LOG_ERR, "Long sleep %s%d",hexmineru->drv->name, hexmineru->device_id);
         // 6+ Gh/s Wink
          //cgsleep_us_r (&ts_start, 600*1000);
            cgsleep_ms(200);
       } else {   
         if(!job_switch) {
         //   applog(LOG_ERR, "Short sleep %s%d",hexmineru->drv->name, hexmineru->device_id);
            //cgsleep_us_r (&ts_start, 5*1000);
              cgsleep_ms(5);
         } else {
            //applog(LOG_ERR, "No sleep %s%d",hexmineru->drv->name, hexmineru->device_id);
         }
      }
    }

Cpu goes bit high again but i think nanos work better

If you have time you can play with   cgsleep_ms(200); - increase reduces cpu load but may impact nanos performance - do not go above 800
No need to decrease it


Yesterday i try to change  (&ts_start, 600*1000) to (&ts_start, 800*1000). Got WU around 70/m for 2 nano  Grin
Honestly speaking WU is a mistery for me. No joks it was explained by kano..You can dig the info for it. but changing it to 800 will reduce CPU load for sure. However it can reduce nanos hashrate. In theory up to 1300 should be fine without impact on the hashrate but according to my observations it is not quite true. In general you have to pump same job to the chip (and getting response from it) and watch when it will ask for new one. I do not know exactly speaking of timing when chip is asking for new one. But what i know that as fast you pump it the chance to delay the time for the new job is lower. Unfortunately pumping each 5 ms as it was in first version generates a lot of IO and CPU load but insures that you will never leave chip workless Grin. We need to found good compromise and sweet spot how much IO/CPU load to suffer.
Got it?
PS: I am not bitfury chip expert and if someone can comment on it i am all years

Got it. Then i will focus on (&ts_start, 800*1000) but change cgsleep_ms(200)
I have tried 800 and after a day i though that there were 2-3 % hash loss. But it might be variance though...
if it is OK at 800 speaking of hashrate leave it there Smiley

And i found that even tp-lin is at 90% load performace of HEX16 is not suffering - 5 HEX16 + 2 Nanos
So i left it pumping Grin
In curent implementation when you feed the chip with new job you wait longer then 5 ms 800 in your case, then you pump it each 5 ms with same job not to miss the moment. First big delay reduces cpu load ....
