Happily hashing away at ~500GH/s


I am posting setup / support / oc tidbits in this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=699064.0

A tiny red LED is visible when the board starts hashing



4xPCIE6pin power receptacles and  1 x RJ45 Ethernet port.




Operational. The board beeps real loud twice, after power up! Beeping can be disabled in the miner configuration menu.



Link for sound deadening the pesky buzzer Wink. Thanks philipma1957

403  Bitcoin / Mining support / BITMAIN Antminer S3 support and OverClocking thread on: July 17, 2014, 08:26:02 PM
Code:
The default IP address of the miner is 192.168.1.99, 

[code][b]Username:root, Pwd:root[/b]

Overclocking

You can overclock the S3 to 250MHz by first ssh'ing into the device,
and then uncomment the 250M clock speed lines and
 making sure other clock speeds are commented out.
The overclocked device hashrate is ~500GH/s at 250MHz.

I have tried 275MHz and 300MHz, and were no-go since the chip voltage in the S3 is set at 0.784V.

Run the following command from a Linux machine. If you have changed your device IP then use that below, instead of 192.168.1.99.

Code:
ssh 192.168.1.99 -lroot
password:root


vim /etc/config/asic-freq

Following steps are from allcoinminer. Thanks!


  • Download putty from here first. http://www.putty.org/
  • Open it and put your antminer ip address.
  • Put root as username and password when asked.
  • Then, type and enter the below.

Code:
vim /etc/config/asic-freq
vim is a text file editor. The asic-freq file is opened now.
Type
Code:
i
and comment by putting # in the default values and uncomment by removing # from the frequency set(freq_value,chip_freq,timeout) you want to set.
Type
Code:
!wq
to save and exit the file.

Uncomment the desired clock speed as shown below now and close putty. Restart Antminer S3 and you are running now at the new frequency.

Code:
config 'asic-freq' 'default'

        option 'freq_value'    '0982'  #250M
        option 'chip_freq'     '250'
        option 'timeout'       '16'

        #option 'freq_value'    '1286'  #237.5M
        #option 'chip_freq'     '237.5'
        #option 'timeout'       '17'

        #option 'freq_value'    '0882'  #225M
        #option 'chip_freq'     '225'
        #option 'timeout'       '18'

        #option 'freq_value'    '1106'  #218.75M
        #option 'chip_freq'     '218.75'
        #option 'timeout'       '18'

http://bitcoinexaminer.org/finnish-project-tv-network-broadcast-bitcoin-data/

A new Finnish project is about to accomplish its ambitious mission within the Bitcoin ecosystem: the Koodilehto KryptoRadio project wants to broadcast Bitcoin-related transactional data around the world using digital television transmissions or, in other words, Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial (DVB-T) networks.


I guess it's similar to time-server WWVB, but of course a lot of data compared to a simple time signal. Wonderful if it comes to fruition.

Have they heard about the recent increases in college tuitions?

Is there any truth to the following. I don't think an activist org. should pay $180,000 to its founder annually.
Code:
Avaaz received over $6.7 million in 2010, and paid its President over $180,000 as a salary

413  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Homebrew ASIC miner on: June 23, 2014, 10:18:12 AM
Title says all. Are their any tutorials on making your own ASIC miner ? I see plenty of chips laying around the place on e-bay and amazon, I was just wondering if it was feasible to build a miner from scratch.
I'm not interested in making the chips themselves ( from what I've gathered, it's PRETTY expensive  Wink )
go with Bitfury chips.

I blame the welfare state (wrought by selfishness and political pandering) and erosion of a free market, otherwise immigrants would add value. America is destroying herself. Sorry if I don't go more in-depth on substantiating this opinion.

Can you elaborate on what you mean though by 'erosion of culture'? Culture is a dynamic idea.

This.

Immigrant in the early days (18th to early 20th century) add value to the country. And they don't breed like rabbits.

Personal responsibility and saving were encouraged.


Not so any longer. Seen people abuse the marriage system, family relation to get their entire family into US. They take more than they give because of subsidy and freebie. And they abuse the credit system and commit tax fraud with no consequence.

Generalization is so  easy and relaxing Smiley

my wife doesn't believe that night-owls exist (i'm one and it's been difficult to convince her) and this survey will hopefully convince her.
