Any videos of this anywhere. Way to confusing for me without a video  All the pencil mod ones on youtube don't use voltmeters either? It's super easy to do! Don't even have to check the voltage to get decent results. Just check the Ohms before and after applying the pencil. I will see about putting a short video up for the S1 pencil mod. 8 resisters 2 or 3 pencil strokes on each one. ohms before 4.47k ohms after 2.9- 3.4k I allowed that much variance on purpose. Why because I wanted to see how forgiving the s-1 would be to less then perfect ohms. I did 3 s-1's two run at freq 275 one runs at freq 300 .. they pull 560 watts and do 420gh more then a month now .. no adjustments of any kind. watts stay between 555 and 565 hash stays near 420. I can begin to say how easy this is to do. don't muscle the pencil strokes . I used less pressure on them then when I write with a pencil. if you resisters stay between 2.9 and 3.4 you should do around 140gh a machine around 185 watts I had 5x S1's running off a single 1000 Watt PSU  The hardest part was finding the frequency each miner preferred (lowest HWE etc) |

I am a noob, but I really need help. Not personal, just technical. I am using mining.bitcoin.cz and guiminer on my windows system.
My nvidia cards appear to be working properly, and data shows up on my account page just fine. I have a dual cpu 6-core xeon workstation and my cpus are on vacation most of the time, so I added rpcminer, and although guiminer show good results in Mhash/s nothing appears on my account page. There's no way I can see what's going on except that the cores are all maxed, so something is happening but nothing appears on my account page.
I decided to use mining_proxy.exe and this allows me to at least see some activity from rpcminer but most of the msgs are requests asking for new work.
(2014-06-27 16:36:07,663 INFO proxy getwork_listener._on_authorized # Worker 'my_worker's name' asks for new work)
Is all this normal?
Thank-you for your help.
all this is quite normal. you have too small of a portion of the entire network to even register. welcome to the pool  I added a GPU 7970 as new worker over an hour ago (Shits N Giggles), it pulls 627.4063295 Mh on Account page, but cannot confirm if it would get included in any reward as it on the same account as my others. Wouldnt he would get something seeing slush goes down to .0000000 poompteenth bit now in its hourly average? How hot is that GPU running? I accidentally "quick switched" the coins on my rig (was playing with block erupters) and walked away...after less than an hour I received email notification from my mining software informing me a device exceeded a warning temperature. I checked the rig (gaming machine) and my 2x 5970's had been mining Bitcoin and were hot! I dont remember their hashrates tho |

I got one fits nicely. as does your breakout box casing. I am very impressed with the 3d printers quality of product Thanks! The production version of the RBox mounts are beefier and they actually stack! Not all 3d printers are the created equal and even the same printer can print with good or bad quality. |

If the difficulty goes up and u have 900 gh and receive .01 as reward per block found does the reward for your work drop as the difficulty goes up?
Correct. That is why a cryptocurrency miner must continually increase their hashrate Not correct, increasing difficulty will not alter your slush reward per round - just makes blocks harder to find and hence you find them less often... I stand corrected. |

It looks awesome, Kudos!!!
Thanks! It took me awhile to get it just right. I am going to add 2 more RBox units to my mount "cube" demonstrating the scalability of these mounts. |

I cannot get MultiMiner to install on the Windows 8.1 machine. It goes trough the process but when it "starts" MM I get nothing

The way these are set up, the fan blows air across the top heat sink but not the bottom one, which functions more passively. By stacking them, or aligning them, the fan of the bottom miner can pull air through the miner on top, turning the bottom fan into an active heat sink as well. Have you tested this at all with your configuration? I've noticed it makes them all run cooler but the guy on the bottom...
Apologies for the late reply mate. Somehow I am not being notified of new posts made in this thread. Anyways, yes, you are correct, if a miner is placed inside the box. the airflow would be cut down quite a bit. The screenshot of the stacked model was mainly to depict the ability to stack the mounts. Check out the following post.. |

I set my payout to 1 BTC, I use to get 4 per month now I get two. when it goes down to 1 per month I may set the threshold to .5 BTC if I don't upgrade my hardware. when I go to spend those BTC, I do so with no fees. I don't know what kind of example you are looking for.
I just wanna know, how you manage to transfer BTC, without paying fees. Lets assume I have 1 BTC, which I received from my pool with one single transaction. What do I do (beside changing transaction fee to 0 in the wallet settings), to transfer 0.5 BTC without paying a fee? Will this be confirmed? When? These questions bother me a lot, cause the way I understood the TX fee process, is that miners choose which TX to include in their blocks. And if someone is not paying the fee, the TX might not be confirmed at all... Thank you. When you try to send coins, you do so by picking inputs (payments you've received) which are equal to or greater than the amount you want to send. The extra amount is sent back as change to yourself, and sometimes a piece of your inputs are used to pay a transaction fee. The need to pay a transaction fee is based on the priority of your transaction. This is determined by the "coin age" of your inputs. Generally, "1 coin day" worth of age is high enough to avoid fees, as long as the transaction isn't huge. A "coin day" would be 1 BTC with 144 confirmations, which is the target number of blocks in an average day. If your input is 0.5 BTC, it would need 288 confirmations. If it's 0.1 BTC, 1440 confirmations. There's a few other caveats to a "no fee" default transaction. These are: All the outputs are at least 0.01 BTC and the transaction is under 1 KB in size. Both of these are fairly easy to meet as long as your wallet isn't full of small inputs. More detail is included here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_feesKeep in mind that these are the default rules. There's a few other things that can create delays, such as other similar "qualified free transactions" with a higher priority than yours. By default bitcoind only allocates a specific amount (17 KB IIRC) to processing no-fee + high priority transactions. Good info to know! Thanks for posting this |

Some notes on errors. Please don't take any of this the wrong way, I am just being straight forward. I am not venting, I know you folks are doing your best to report issues. I just want to make sure the most useful information is coming across. FirstIf you are receiving errors, please post the error details. That means, saying "I am having .NET errors" does not help at all. I understand you may be frustrated, but if you took a few more steps I could fix the issues much more quickly. Second, example error details that unfortunately do not help:

In both of the good examples, you'll see a list of lines that lead up to the issue that occurred, along with specific names for the issue that are useful. Thanks guys. There's a bugfix update coming tonight. I appreciate the patience. I do need a vacation now and again Thanks for this info Nate. I must say I have been shooting from the hip as far as retrieving/posting the proper logs. I know this will help me and others a bunch which should in turn make it faster for you to help troubleshoot and implement changes. As always, I appreciate your dedication. Shoot me your address sometime and I will toss you some R-Pi cases and other 3d printed goodies |

I cannot for the life of me get MultiMiner to even run on m Win8.1 machine here  to get multi miner working on 8.1 I had to install .net 3.5 even though I am sure 8.1 already has .net 4 installed I will try this later. Thanks! I can confirm MultiMiner requires .NET 3.5. I've done this to make sure folks could run this on older rigs, but version 4.0 of MultiMiner will up the requirement to at least .NET 4.0. If you are still unable to run the app on 8.1, please post as much detail as possible about this. I run the app myself on 8.1 on several rigs. I just tried installing on 8.1 the other night on my roommates PC to mine DRK with a spare r9 270. MM will install, but won't launch properly as is. I am going to try installing .NET 3.5 in a few and see if that remedies the issue. I was did use MM on the same PC (pre-8.1 update) and quite a few versions ago (MM 2.8'ish). MM would "launch" but only in the background and am unable to get the process to stop without a reboot. Uninstalling MM won't even stop the process. Would you like me to pull some logs from this machine? Also, my Win7 machines have been crashing/freezing near daily and sometimes more often. I have posted the error codes/logs in previous posts over the last week or so. |

I did try MultiMiner, but it did not work for me at all.
It seemed to install fine, when I tried to start it, answered the questions all seem to be good.
The main display box displayed but none of the options seemed to work. I would select them
but nothing would happen. It did download it own version of bfgminer that it was using, it started
bfgminer, but it took zero cpu time and just sat there. I could not tell if that copy of bfg was doing anything.
No hashes seem to show up on the pool that I pointed it to.
When I tried to stop multi-miner I could not get it to exit memory, I tried to force quit it several times
over a 20 minute period, I finally gave up and rebooted and removed it from the system and went back
to my copy of bfg v4.2.x that has been working real great for me.
This happens to me using Win8.1 as well, exact same thing! |

It keeps getting better...
Ok, now after realizing I was spelling Erupter wrong in BFG I got the erupter to work.
Tried to plug in the R-Box which seemed to conflict with the erupter,
it wanted to also use the same com port. In this case COM3.
So I unplugged the erupter and then plugged in the R-Box and now it is working again...
Does anyone have more than 1 R-Box running under WinXP with BFG 4.2.x ? With or without other miners?
I will be moving these to my Ubuntu miner when I can figure out how to update my BFG 3.10 to 4.2 on there.
As for the heat sink possible issue, according to miner.php which I use to monitor with, the 4 cores were hold a solid 46c temp.
I am getting a solid 33GHS out of the R-Box.
Have you tried MultiMiner? I have 7 RBox units runniing MM which uses BFG |

no idea which is the correct driver. I have been at this so long now I'm v.confused.
winodws 8.1
I linked the correct driver for ya a couple posts ago. I cannot for the life of me get MultiMiner to even run on m Win8.1 machine here to get multi miner working on 8.1 I had to install .net 3.5 even though I am sure 8.1 already has .net 4 installed I will try this later. Thanks! |

It is a older PC. It was running fine on this PC for almost 3 weeks. I had to power off to move the PC.
It has not worked on it since I powered back up.
I had tested the R-Box on a 3rd PC, it worked there, I even have a debug log from it. I tried it again on that 3rd PC and it now does not work.
I think this R-Box just died, or there is something really wrong with it.
Went you plug and un-plug the usb cable the pc beeps to acknowledge it, if you uninstall the driver, it re-installs when plugged back it, it just does not want to communication to BFG anymore.
I think I will have to send it back and get it replaced.
Gotcha. Are both heatsinks properly seated? I noticed on 1 of my RBox miners one of the heatsinks was not fully seated. That could have caused an overheat issue had I not fixed that. |
|
|
|
Yes, that is the driver I have been using.
Tried CCleaner, still not not see the R-Box.
Hmm, is the USB port on the PC a USB3.0 by chance? |
|
|
|
Cheers, installed it and it now recognises the rock miner. I was sure I had done that before. Now if only I can get it to pick up my ant miner u2's as well. It seems to do one or the other. whoops, so many threads related to RBox and drivers, lol https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632947.msg7534150#msg7534150The driver is linked in my post there |
