Yo, but i have 4 rail ^^

............
Why do u think that they can only maximum 2 board handle?
................


Cause one HEX16C used 9A  Cheesy

one rail is 19A, so only 2 board(2 X 9= 18A) per rail.
Read carefully what i post there, i am talking about per rail not all PSU.

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.

How about increase your worker difficulty to 64.

And your PSU, http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/gigabyte_odin_plus_700w_psu_review,2.html said that your PSU is four rail.
Each rail can supply 19A(HEX16C use 9A). This mean maximum 2 board, but personally i won't let the regulator run 24H on 90% load. I am more prefer to spread the load on four rail.

11.68 V is very bad you know, maybe the regulator already overloaded.

For best efficiency, it's best to choose single rail PSU.

Hi,

i downloaded cgminer 3.8.5 and patched it with the patch from technobit. Then i did a configure with ./configure --enable-bflsc --enable-avalon --enable-hexminerc

When its done it shows me:

 [2014-01-16 16:12:09] cgminer: --hexminerc-voltage: unrecognized option

can anyone help with this?

Thanks Michael



Are you sure that the patch work??? There must be a error message appear when run the patch.
There is no hex16 added in your summary. You must be use wrong patch for wrong cgminer version

For cgminer 3.8.5 afe7710858e4ce28bb60f6ae6e167a18d687634f.patch

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 too high.
Best results 23-24 Gh/s (16 chips) in terms of stability and clocking are observed at 1100mV core voltage + 1500 MHz Clock

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 just open my stupid hub. I found that it used 2 x FE1.1s chip LOL
Did you ever checkout the chip in that 10 port hub loshia? one must be FE2.1. But what about other one?
Yes i did and i posted it couple of times already Smiley

root@HEX16A:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a40:0201 Terminus Technology Inc. FE 2.1 7-port Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB



I have not open it and i am not sure if Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB is tt chip but i am using 10 ports without issues Smiley I have only two tp-links with 10 ports (Actually 9 HEX16B + power for the tplink + data) otherwise my Hex16A are not more than 7 (850W PSu) because of the power  Cry
I guess with 7 boards i am using only one (or maybe 0) port of 4 port chip
Actually tp-link can be hacked to get power from usb data port but i do not have time for this. When i need it (not lose USB port on my hub) i just strip usb power wire spike + crimp/ or solder + tape  and so on you now the story Grin
PS:

In the begging i used to cut USB data red wire to avoid feeding from the hub but as long as i am using single PSU ground i am not doing it anymore

I see, so it's give chip info there  Cheesy

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:)

Does those nonces = 0 mean they are not working or damaged?
Maybe you can help Marto
Thanks!
Smells like dead chips to me

Yeah sound like dead chip. Or you can try to visual check if there is any missing component or unclean solder.
I mark the chip base on component numbering in schematic but you can make sure by measuring the chip temperature or by touching the chip. Working chip will be very hot  Cheesy


If all clean then you need to send back to marto.

Hi

Has anyone got these working using cgminer 3.10 on win 7?

I have got them running on hexminer but I am a bit worried that my anti virus shows hex as having a virus and I have just had 0.1621 stolen from my bitcoin wallet

Hi mudge,

The cgminer patch for detecting HEX16 only work on linux. So on windows 7 only HEXMINER available right now.
Or you can use virtual pc installed on win7 to run linux. I already test this with HEX16C.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=323727.msg4198171#msg4198171

But the best way is to use TPLINK TL-MR3020 as host, but then you will need separate PSU ofc.
Feel free to ask us here about the setup  Grin

Hello Zich,

Can i ask you for help, i'm really lost. Huh
I just got my miners yesterday, and i'm suffering a lot to make them working.
Thanks
Bestalg

Hi bestalg,

Very sorry to not respond in time since i am only online from 01:00 - 14:00 UTC.

Like loshia said, i think you should buy single rail PSU, so you don't had to worry about rail maximum load  Grin
Antec HCG Series HCG-900W is four rail.

Today, I am getting my second TP-Link MR3020 Router (obviously, I bricked the first one Roll Eyes ).

To prevent bricking the device again, what are the steps that have to be taken?

Code:

1. Connect router to PC and connect with IP 192.168.0.254
2. Flash router with openwrt+ cgminer from technobit website( 0.1.5 release)
3. connect tp-link router to my homenetwork router( IP range is 192.168.0.0 - 255)
4. Connect to tp-link via 192.168.0.99 and set a userpassword. Save and Apply.
5. Set all parameters in cgminer window which are necessary. Save and Apply
6. Connect Hex16a2 boards with powerd usb hub to tp-link and start cgminer.
Is this right?

The reason I am asking is, because I can not really explain why my last router bricked, that's the reason for the dumb question Grin

Thanks in advance!

1. It's the best to set you PC ip to static ip like 192.168.0.50
2. open web browser & type 192.168.0.254
3. flash the router with new 0.1.5 factory image
4. wait until the router restart( LED off & on again)
5. do not move your router yet
6. open web browser & type 192.168.0.99
7. Set password, time
8. setting the ip as you desire
9. Set cgminer


I see that your point number 3 is dangerous. You don't need to do that yet.
On your point number 6, cgminer is auto start. So if all cgminer & network setting ok then cgminer will start even if there is no miner connected.

Ok, now i feel so stupid looking for replacement Fan.
The SUNON Maglev PF92251V1-000U-S99 is PWM fan, so what i need is to build PWM fan controller.

Did you choose this fan? I noticed the PWM blue/yellow wires were chopped off to make it non-PWM  Tongue

It would probably be best to run them at 7v by plugging the ground into the 5v (+12V-+5V=7V), then it should be 2625RPM 43.75CFM, but I'm not sure how the board or other peoples PSU will handle it. Soldering in a resistor on the 12v line, or even better a variable resister with 3 settings for 12v-overclocker,7v-normal,5v-underclocked, probably the safest option.

The Arctic F9 (AFACO-09000-GBA01) non-PWM non-temp control fan is good combination of airflow/quiet/price/safety.

Actually SUNON Maglev PF92251V1-000U-S99 is the best fan for HEX16C. You can touch the heatsink on chip area without get burn.
But since i need to take it to my bedroom then the noise will make problem.
Arctic F9 is good for replacement but i can't find it in my country so i end up buying zalman F2 LED. Zalman F2 LEd had 2800 rpm & good enough cause my bedroom had air conditioner.
Now i regret buying zalman since i can make PWM controller for SUNON Maglev PF92251V1-000U-S99.
With PWM controller i can set it at 3000 rpm at night  & 4500 rpm at daylight  Grin

I had a brief power outage and now in the API log I get this

 [Firmware Version] => 20131221
cgminer: 3_8_4_afe7710
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

CGminer is not runing any ideas?
No internet/active pools or board not detected use shah and check what is going on

And check TL-MR3020 date, time, time zone. If still problem maybe DNS problem. Try to restart your main router.

I want to use them on my raspberryPI, so is there any possible way to connect them to a normal plug somehow?
Anybody done yet? My cgminer does not have a desktop-psu.

I just removed a fan and holly crap the fans on my second shipment are 4.7W 4500 RPM!!!

http://www.alliedelec.com/search/productdetail.aspx?SKU=70226025#tab=specs

They were only 2W Sunons on my last one!

At 5v they'll probably still do 1875 RPM!

Seriously these fans are dangerous at 12v 4500RPM without any guard. Watch out!

UPDATE: Just set all the 4.7W fans to 5v. Seem to be keeping things cool enough. I'll keep an eye on it for 24hrs.



Ok, now i feel so stupid looking for replacement Fan.
