OK. Thank you. So the "worker name" in the Antminer miner configuration page is the wallet address. I do have a BTC wallet address so I should be good.
Thanks for the help!  Cheesy

You are welcome.

Good luck with it!
4102  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: keep a small mining farm cool with only air conditioners. on: July 02, 2023, 07:11:26 PM
Flat out you need more cooling. Keep in mind the air conditioners are 60k BTU in a perfect world, the will likely be a little lower then that. AND keep in mind you will need some other networking equipment in the room that will generate a bit of heat. AND slip air conditioners also put out a little heat. (blower fan, electronics and so on 1 is not a big deal 10 will be putting out a couple of hundred watts) once again not much in the normal world but you are hitting up against the maximum cooling they can do as it is.

Either add 2 AC units or take out a few miners. OR be even safer and do both, a little less profit is better then: https://youtu.be/fxGgx3YCCAA?t=8

-Dave

whatminers m30 can clock down to 3050 watts vs 3400. That saves 17500watts or 59500 BTU's in heat.

I wonder how much outdoor heat will affect the room.

If you down clock to 3050 watts you may be good.
If you do 10 ac on the cold and 1 piped to the hot.

you have 660,000 btu

and miners are dropped to 538,000 btu

660000x80% =528,000 btu.

So you have a 20% safety factor by adding 1 ac unit and clocking lower.
4103  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: keep a small mining farm cool with only air conditioners. on: July 02, 2023, 06:41:05 PM

can the cold air from the split be piped to the hot side.

so 10 splits all on cold side but pipe cold air on two to the hot side.

They can't be piped by default, but with some ducting it could we could easily direct one or more ACs to blow air to the hot side of the room, sould not be too difficult to do.

Here is how thet look like https://www.daikinindia.com/products-services/floor-standing

They blow air from the bottom and blow at the top.
Quote
so we were 80f cold 105f hot
with the partial mixing
we are 85f cold 95f hot

How did that affect the gear temps? It's hard to know if gear would prefer 80f intake and 105f out, vs 85f in and 95f out.

@stopmix, whatsminers would tune lower when temps go up, not much work needed to underclock them or shut them down when needed, but the cost of the setup will be close to 20k, slightly above, would rather size everything correctly since this will be one huge risk to test.

My plan is not to go full blast at first, so maybe just 1-2 ACs and the right number of miners accordingly، that should give us a good overview of how things will be on a larger scale.

The next issue we would face is noise, we need to soundproof the room as much as possible, also not sure how noisy a dozen ACs outdoor units will be.

This is going to be a very complicated project to say the least, which is why I am trying my best to be prepared for all scnerio, have to study everything, consulted a few HVAC folks and none of them had a clue of an operation of such type, they all know the math as we do, but none seemed to fully guaranteed it would work. 

So far all gear is good I showed you the whatsminers they are within spec.

My setup is close to what you have but not the same.

I can get some air in and some air out not enough but some.
And we do 36k+36k BTU of ac.

We are at 165kwatts and the room is smaller.

The small mixing action is okay so far.

You are going you be like this.

The larger room size will help you.

The dependence on all ac will mean you need 24/7/365 temp monitor.

I have these going to 4 phones and an ipad

hmm maybe they are working on air limits.
another fucking day the air is too much for my asthma.
So I am in a well filtered house.
I go to a well filtered car

Hmmm how big is the room?

It is an interesting problem since the room is sealed  and there is no effort to do a true cold /hot set of aisles.

How much power do the ac units pull. You have a downclock option if too hot in the peak temps.

I allow some mixing of hot and cold aisles it actually is okay to mix the aisles a bit.

In your case you want the two aisles to mix because the room is sealed.

so if you have perfectly separated hot cold aisles the hot aisle will over heat.

worst case I see is you may need 1 split near hot aisle and space the m30s to let air mix.

bigger the room the better.

Room size is 10m*6m*3m / 32ft*19ft*9.8ft.

Each 60k btu AC pulls about 6kw worth of power, basically 1/3 of the miner's power.

Maybe a few fans sucking air from hot side back to the cold? I would imagine putting an AC in the hot side is going to melt it.

can the cold air from the split be piped to the hot side.

so 10 splits all on cold side but pipe cold air on two to the hot side.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5454122.0

last photo shows a stand a lone ac with two tubes piping air in.

your inside splits should have a cold ac air vent. if you tube two of them to the hot side it will mix the air.

your problem is very close but not exactly the same as what we had.

we got the cold aisle and hot aisle perfect after months of trying.

but the hot aisle was too hot 🥵. becasue we could not vent enough hot air out due to limited vent space.

so we not let some cold aisle bleed into the hot aisle.

so we were 80f cold 105f hot
with the partial mixing
we are 85f cold 95f hot

this is working very well.

you are going to have to do something like it.

your room is bigger then my room is

20long by 8wide by 20high.

some links for vents and fans as your fan idea may be good.

something like this to move some hot air to cold side.
https://www.amazon.com/MOUNTO-COMBO-Heavy-Cylinder-25-foot/dp/B078HQD8DD/ref=sr_1_5?


something like this to move cold air from one split to hot side

https://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Insulated-Aluminum-Ducting-Ventilation/dp/B0BPKZ2FH7/ref=sr_1_8?

what they will do is even out the room

instead of 75 cold  105 🥵 hot 🥵

maybe 85 cold 95 hot.

with no venting or very little venting mixing cold and hot will be needed to some degree.

the exact degree I am not sure 🤔

I would love to see some photos when it is setup.
4106  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Whatsminer firmware on: July 02, 2023, 03:10:49 PM
is there a way to control fan speed of a whatsminer ?

not a good idea. I have eight units
 2x m10
2x m30
4x m50

all of them have hot exterior that is deliberately done.
all of them are long with larger fans
only two fans that do about 310cfm each
with the long length heat sheds to outside walls of the miner.

If you want to reduce fan speed try two long heat sinks on the left and right outside of the miner.

thus the ability to shed heat on those walls would lower internal heat.

BTC
How will I know my miner has found something?
Money appears in your wallet.

I am trying to follow the directions to set up my S9. Does anyone have detailed instructions on how to do so? I am not following page 1 instructions.
With regards to "enter wallet address for user name", on an S9 is that worker name?
Thanks?

You need a btc address.

pool            =  solo.ckpool.org:3333
miner name = 3NwurtiKe8GrpVdZGYEESY5N1DQqUboQWz
password    =  x


after about ten minutes you can check it here
https://solo.ckpool.org/users/3NwurtiKe8GrpVdZGYEESY5N1DQqUboQWz


BTW if you use the address above you are not mining for your self.

Do you have a btc address you control?

if you do use that address.

if you do not have an address under your control then get one.

Hey buddy, no more than three in a row, we agreed didn't we

Phil, are you sleeping or what? Tongue

 He was going to Six Flags for a flavours of the world tour so he's probably in a food coma.  I'll be on one shortly after a Canada day BBQ with the family.  Too.  Much.  Food.


Too much smoke in the air. Asthma acted up. I ended up doing some software builds of btc nodes and distribution of coins for the mining partners which takes forever due to shitcoinery

I owned three kias. So I could be kiakiakia.

A lot depends on the seller. I live in NJ. I have a seller repair guy he lives in Roslyn NY.

I can drive to his business pick the gear up and he will repair any bad gear I have. So if you can do that

you should buy from A guy like that.

But buying from ebay is meh.
4113  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Going to build a new node. on: July 01, 2023, 04:09:50 AM
I have a hard ssd/hdd cloning machine.

The argument would be that the first drive dies while cloning it on my cloning machine.

The machine is stand alone and on an ups it is super reliable. It will also do a compare after the actual clone.

The reason I am doing this is I no longer want my trezor to be my main storage device.

I have 3 dell 7060  one will be an active node

One  will be a cold wallet

the third will be  a pc back up for either  node.

I have a good set of places to store  two of these pc's and a separate place to store the back up drives.

Gentlemen,

are you ready for some fresh offtopic content?
However, here we go:

IC 5070, aka. Pelican Nebula.
2 hours of data, including a few thin clouds crossing the viewport, which make the brighter stars look softer in the end.
I added an infrared filter to the camera, compared to the old, IR-rich photographs, structures now look sharper and more detailed.



But where is my flat earth in all that?  Roll Eyes

I bought an Antminer E9 Pro. I currently only have 1 dedicated outlet. The outlet is an L6-20r. What do I need to get to hook this baby up? I can't seem to find a pdu that has an L6-20p with built in surge protection.

if you are in the USA.

buy this

https://www.ebay.com/itm/155204919329?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334394491902?


surge protection pdu's are costly and likely to not be needed.

it will be more important to protect your eth cables
4116  Other / Meta / Re: What does post quality really mean on: June 30, 2023, 07:54:04 PM
Alot of persons on this forum always advise newbies on post quality.my question is simple and on behalf of other newbies like my self is it necessary to monitor your activity and post count in comparison with your merits

Like does it mean  someone with and account say
Activity;50
Merit;87
Post;51

Has more quality post or is a better poster than someone with say
Activity;100
Merit;87
Posts;150



Those numbers don't mean much the percentage of posts merited is easily manipulated by someone looking to boost merit count for an alt account.

Your numbers below:

Activity: 9
Merit: 1
Posts: 10

With a few clicks I could give you 9 merits

and you would be at :

Activity: 9
Merit: 10
Posts: 10


Frankly I actually think your first post on this thread is a good post. As it points out that merit percentage for newer members can easily be boosted to 100%



Look at my numbers

Activity: 3808
Merit: 5915
Posts: 41904


6 out of 41 is a 14% merit percentage.

easy to jack up

but 5915/41904 is also 14% merit percentage.  And it is easy to see I will never get to 100% merit percentage.

Its also easy to see I do not need a merit (this can cost me merits).

If you have 4 merits to give and a newer guy has a old post and I have a good post  you may pick the newer guy.

I think your question could be seen as a good post as it is addressing merit percentage as a guide to good posters.


I also think my answer is a merit worthy.

In both cases we may not get any merits.
4117  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: June 30, 2023, 07:12:38 PM
Just think about how many BTC that you might have had if you had been stacking in the last year gallianooo - rather than wishing for the BTC price to drop below $10k?

Its everyone wish that price of bitcoin fall so that we can accumulate Bitcoin. But the reality is whenever price go down there is so much fear and panic that not many accumulate.

Right now everyone is wishing that Bitcoin may go down to 20k so that they can buy. Even if bitcoin go down to 20k in few days, these all desirous will start saying "stay away market is crashing".

It really need balls to buy bitcoin on DIP.

buying dip is easy if you are prepped.

I am offended by you being offended.  Grin Grin Not really.

Basically physical harm threats
Death threats.
I know where you live and will be looking for you statements. Are not allowed.

When I start a thread I always do moderated style and I personally will delete

I prefer less crude talk on my threads.

Also if I delete a post I quote it and say I don’t want f u blow me bitch type comments.

Damn. From green candle to bloody dildo. The balls are formed as we speak. Looks like I jinxed it.

Never mind, it will go up again.

$32k tonight, as Phil says.

I am taking off today. Going to play with the wife today. Maybe go to six Flags Great adventure food fest.

lots of food to eat should be fun.

Better than beating on buddy for not doing proper lifts.
4120  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: June 30, 2023, 05:07:04 AM
got pretty close to 32k.

maybe some time tonight.
