Found out why one of my units was not hashing and having X's on the chips. Paste was everywhere on the inside. Even the screws holding the heat sink on had thermal paste on them.
... and cleaning it up (and re-applying paste?) resolved the issues ? |

Congrats now you will make 8usd per s3,money well spent huh?
How are your Litecoins doing, bro ? |
|
|
|
So you are conceding that you have been trying to scam us with this thread ? |
|
|
|

I'm curious why the discard rates are so high in general with the S3's, and if it's something that can't be improved upon.

 Running about 8.2% under spec after nearly a day, not 7.7% Appears that 2 of my 6 units are running under spec  400 to 420 ghs-ish :| |

Am I right? TK
Correct, provided xxy is not in use on your network already. Have you already connected to it's default address of 192.168.1.99 for the initial configuration ? |

You are a saint. Thanks for this thread. Will mod a bunch of 'em tonight.
Cheers !

Why all the discarded shares??
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
|

Set up 3 of 6 miners last night. Let them run overnight. Hrmph...    EDIT: Was running Diff 256. Changed to Diff 512 today and will see if they improve. |
|
|
|
And is this secure?? I mean... there´s no risk S3 explodes or something? xD
This has me curious as well. I never did overclock the S1's I had, but I'm thinking of overclocking these dudes. I'm really hesitant, though, on the count of them already needing to clock them to 218.75 stock :| Was thinking of nudging one up to 225, but don't want to risk burning my house down. |

I cant even ssh into them (although maybe i`m using the wrong settings). I assume its 192.168.1.99 root root and port 24?
Port 22 is default for SSH. Do you have an IP scanner on-hand to scan the IP-range to see if you can locate it ? (Used to use SuperScan on Windows a while back, and Angry IP Scanner for Mac works well) |

Do you have dhcp enabled? set a static ip
Ahh, yes. I configured all my S3's as DHCP instead of static. Thanks ! I'll reconfigure in the morning ! EDIT: Reconfigured one as static IP, still beeps once on reboot. Oh well. Not going to complain too loudly. The one machine that was throwing more HW errors than the others finally ended up x'ing one of the chips in the asic status. Will disassemble and check the heatsinks and all that good stuff tomorrow. |

You can. Under Miner Configuration "Beeper ringing". Change it from "true" to "false"
Tried that Maybe it's not possible to disable certain types of beeps ? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |

Got 3 of 6 up and running. You guys doing diff 256 or 512 for these guys ?
One of the three I have up and running is throwing more HW errors compared to the rest. Stock clocks. Each running on it's own 750W+ power supply.
*shrugs* More troubleshooting tomorrow...
EDIT: Minor annoyance, it would be nice if there was a way to disable the beeping entirely. Even the beep when it turns on. Causes wife-aggro something fierce when it beeps on reconnection to a server. I have disabled the option for beeping in the Miner Configuration menu.

Now I can no longer connect to my units!!!!
DHCP or static IP configuration ? |
