Alright, I've sold most of the KnC Titan Bridges. I've got 2-3 left. If anyone wants more than that please pm me about it so I can see if it's feasible to get more made.
Managed to burn 2 bridges. Sent BTC to qberty for last 2 bridges he has. yep he is legit.....I got my cloned 'titan bridge' an exact match....knc could not even tell it was a 'bastard' version now to find a neppie 6 port card or maybe a NOV Jupiter 6 port card and see if I can build a Titan controller (my OCT Jupiter 4 port card keeps calling me to 'plug the bridge in" but seeing how the OCT Jupiter Controllers are not compatible to the NOV Jupiter Controllers ...er maybe not...I"d bet the NOV Jupiter controllers ..these are from 2013 are compatible ...but truthfully the only safe bet..if there is one in this hack...would be to try this with an actual neppie board first oh well good to have goals.... (and with the price dump on the 0.5 btc paid...don't feel as bad about the BTC dump...ouch....but still true)  |
Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:) |

^just ninja'd me, hawkfish just bought the last two.
*Update* - The last of the KnC Titan Bridges have been sold. I no longer have any available. If you would like some (you'd need to want more than 3 to justify buying them from me), PM and if I get enough requests i'll get to work on making more bridges.
If it is an emergency and you really need a bridge i'd be willing to part with one of my backup bridges I reserved for myself if you PM me your situation.
Ok, so I have to ask: What blows up on a Rpi bridge? Smoke? Flames? Got a broken board I can buy/borrow/steal? |

The ones KnC provide can't handle jolts. And the RPi is horrible as power management anyway. I haven't zero'd in on the exact reason it burns out, but it's 100% a power thing. I'll check to see if I have any burnt bridges left. |

Weird. C I will have 2 burned bridges I can send after I receive 2 from qberty. I would like 1 back if you are successful in repairing them. |

But heck .....the above hack with a Neppie board and the bridge and the firmware and an LCD ...just set up such...if it came up on the LCD and the GUI that would pretty much be a sure thing..then maybe after that seemed to work a guy could 'ball up' and try a cube but probably will do this experiment when Titans are doorstops just to see...i have no 'balls' ..but it is a thought...if I had a proper Neptune board I'd probably try it .... running out and buying a used one to try this ..not so much  I myself got the bridge ....my 2 Titans are 14.5 months old and still running (march one was used but also a nov 2014 unit) ...so that was a 100 buck per titan 'insurance policy' also with the above in mind..so went for it something is gonna break on one of these puppies..they are only 'designed' for 90 days don't ya know Alright, I've sold most of the KnC Titan Bridges.

Latest update of my firmware currently still in development & testing:
Recently added new feature. Internet outage / no working pool handling.
When either of those situations is present the monitoring script will sleep on a 30 second timer rechecking every 30 seconds. This way the miner isnt issued constant hard / soft resets while the inet or pools are down.

Guys, I have one Titan cube that shuts down the psu immediately after connected to the psu. Earlier it shut down the psu randomly but now instantly when connected. It has one die that had to be off (according to its earlier owner), and it is currently off.
BTW: It shuts down the psu even without controller connected.
Do you think there is a short circuit?

Yes. You have a bad power supply inside of the Titan itself, my guess is if there weren't any flames shooting out of it that some of the high side FETs are blown. That's a fix-able thing if you have the right tools, drop me a PM and let me know if you would like me to look at it. |

I think I'd like to request dropping extra languages completely.  Especially if it has to rely on google. Really, who needs it? Everyone who has a Titan understands it. Seems like a waste of time, development wise. Only my opinion, of course. |

Well, if it makes it easier for others in other countries to navigate the interface & understand then, then Id say its worth it =) |

As always your efforts are much appreciated, any updates on the energy saving tuning have you made progress with that? will it be ready for you next release?

You know, at this point Im satisified with how it has been testing. The core code of automatic die tuning is very functional and seems to adjust to many different scenarios very well. I really need to get it tested on more rigs. I only have 1 tester at this point and usually only 1 - 2 rigs tested at a time. I need more. LOL! |

Ahh, that is so great, I can finally configure my Titan in Zulu!
I have a question - How much profit are you guys with only 1 Titan making? What's your electricity cost?
I have a half-dead Titan that's been sitting in its box gathering dust... doesn't seem worth trying to set it up (I remember hours and hours of frustration trying to keep it mining properly...), but I'm surprised that many of you seem to still be making a profit with it after so many months. And with GenTarkin's improvements to the software, it might be much less frustrating than it was with KNC's rushed software.
