Where are you pointing all that hash?
Usually between westhash and f2pool - whichever one is higher payout at the moment. I've written scripts to manage the miners and change pools according to highest payout. Sometimes I'll swing them at a PPLNS pool if I think it's due to have a good day, but mostly leave it auto to PPS pools.

Just Duct-taped down the center of the S7 and here are the results: (Thanks cryptichermit) IT WORKS: Sure thing, I see you also learned to move the second fan to port 2 instead of 3. Doesn't seem to spin up if left at fan port 3 with just 2 hashboards.

How do you reset the s7? Never had to. Bitmaintech is down so no manual. I know where the reset button is, just don't know the sequence.

Doesn't seem to spin up if left at fan port 3 with just 2 hashboards. Well, the fan never had a readout on the 3rd connector. I do not know why, so I moved it to the 2nd connector to get the readout. It may have been a good thing since the fan speeds are more at the same speed than any of my other miners. This may be a good point........

Reset: Go to the "Miner Configuration" tab and click the button at the bottom "Reset" this should clear everything then click "Save&Apply" Soft Reboot: Go to the "Miner Configuration" tab and click the button at the bottom "Save&Apply" without making any changes - This is a soft reset. Full Reboot: If you want a harder reboot, go to the "System" tab, then go to the "Reboot" tab and click "Reboot" This one takes about 3-4 minutes. Hard Reboot: Unplug then plug back in. I am hoping my language is correct.

OK - My Batch 8 S7 Just arrived. Powered it on with 4x Dual PCI-E and 2 Single PCI-E cable from the EVGA G2 1300W power supply. Everything seems online and up with no red lines but I can't find it logging into my DHCP Router. Anyone seen this issue before? Tried resetting it via the pin hole, tried powering it off and on, still same results. Also tried different network cable. IS the reset still done via the that Pin hole? I'm also seeing a small reset like button on the other side as well.

1. did you connect the 10th PCIe connector to controller in the right orientation? that one is a bit tricky with notch in the opposite orientation (from others), as far as I remember. 2. did you connect ethernet cable snugly into the socket (all the way) and into the router or hub? 3. easy on resets-in 99% cases this step is unneeded. 4. use advanced IP scanner on PC or iNet on a Mac to find your machine. 5. it sometimes takes S7 2-3 min to situate itself on your LAN

I've tried 3 different Ethernet cable including taking 1 for a working S3. I've rebooted and hit both the pin hole and little black button on the controller and tried power cycling 4 times as well wait for the device for over 15mins. It seems to power up and there's no blinking red light which means network is good, but I can't see it logging in at all. EDIT : REbooted router and now it's logged on. Whew!

Anyone look at the efficiencies of the later batches?
I was talking to my buddy who has a bunch of Batch 6, 4.05TH ones running at 4.4-4.5TH but only using 1150-1190Watts at the wall with EVGA 1300G2's. He told me a few were even clocked at 4.2TH when he received it from factory at 625MH.
So that works out to be more efficient than all the other batches, no? I'm talking about real world @ wall usage , not the BS they usually advertise. Maybe Batch 6's are the ones to get and Batch 7-8 is to be avoided like the plague as a LOT of them are having issues.

Sometimes I'll swing them at a PPLNS pool if I think it's due to have a good day, but mostly leave it auto to PPS pools. F2 is PPS and guess your talking about Ant's PPS pool? So ant is 2.5% and F2 is 4% PPS, right? So best you will do is 97.5%? I've tried both and also several PPLNS, mostly on Kano now, since June I have been split with Bitminter and Kano, if you look at the 26 week numbers, I'm avg. 102.5%. Kano is now over 6ph and I see a lot of new miners there, sone at over 500th and 1 new guy at 1.1PH. I think Kano has the best code on the network, fast efficient and 2 orphans EVER. Maybe give it a try? Need to be there for 30 days to really see the effects

that's why i got b6 and not b8. my b6-can do 625 and 650. 650-just 1150W 4.3Th. did not play with lowering fans yet, so temp is in high forties.

Sounds good... I was about to suggest that and if that didn't work, you might want to download LanScan: http://www.iwaxx.com/lanscan/

Maybe give it a try? Need to be there for 30 days to really see the effects F2 is 4% PPS, but you do get a small kickback with NMC and Huntercoin. The other PPS I referred to, Westhash, is western variant of Nicehash. Payout can vary widely depending on rentals and altcoins. I thought about trying Kano, as I had read many good things about it recently. I may send some hash that way for testing.

My garage is cold right at 60 degreen now but it's strange that changing the fan speed from normal to manual at 30% made the temp jump to 72 within 45seconds. I guess I won't be touching FAN controls anymore. Leaving it back to Auto control temp drop to 53-55 quickly. Batch 8 speeding along at 4.7TH. Definitely not as loud as I expected thanks to the super quiet EVGA PSU but there is a little whining noise. At 30% FAN speed it was much more Avalon 6 like and no whining just rushed air. Loving the Hash speed but boy is the cabling much more uglier then the Avalon 6. Definitely more so when I add 4 more next month with Batch 9. Loving the hash speed and can't wait to see how it perform when it's on the 220V IBM 2K PSU. It's almost like the BOX want to hit 5TH but is running out of gas. =) http://imgur.com/LdmS3oH
