Question to the "single rail/Multi rail" specialists:

I have a 1600 Lepa (which is multi rail) and this one has 6 VGA plugs (so 6 cables).  What I want to do is connect 2 cables to one Neptune-box (I solder one additional PCE-plug on the box), so in total 6 cables to 3 boxes.

My question now: does it matter that I join two multi-rail outputs to one ?? (in essence connecting one +12 multi to the other +12 multi rail).  

No need in my opinion, the LEPA comes with thicker wires and rails 3-6 support 30A at 12V.. You only have 4 rails down bottom though, you need to look at the power layout for the 1600 and make sure you connect the right ones..

Thanks, Padrino.  I'm adding a second PCE-e connector to the Neptune-box anyway. So I have two choices to use this connector:

A) using the same splitter cable with LEPA-PSU plug {this is a 12 pin, having two cables with 6 PCE-plugs each): so same rail.
B) using another PSU plug: connecting two rails to one Neptune-box.

You are correct the 1600 LEPA has 6 plugs: 4 of them 30A and 2 of them 20A.  As I want to OC and as I have constructed an additional PCE-plug on the Neptune, I can go for option-B: two Neptune-boxes with 30A + 20A and one box with 30A + 30A.

My only concern is that by connecting 2 different multi-rails have some kind of bad side-effect....  Has anyone any experience with this?

anyone had fix the problem with corsair 1200i???

i can not save the settings with d-link software

One more working day until the end of the month.

In typical KNC fashion, not a single news update in 10 whole days.

We expect to ship to Batch 1 pre-order customers this week and to Batch 2 pre-order customers before the end of the month.

Did this happen, or were knc bs-ing again?

I mean, have they even finished Batch 1 yet?

Are Batch 2 customers going to get "actual" free hashing if July 1st rolls round and they still haven't shipped those rigs? I mean, the whole point of building their datorhall was to provide this free hashing in case of delays, i.e. not delivering in Q2.

February newsletter:

To make sure that everyone who has paid for their Neptune gets their hashing power we are building a data centre like no other. It is located in the north of Sweden not far from Facebook and other Mega Data Centres and it’s totally powered by renewable energy.
 
Over the next few months we are bringing online enough hashing power to make sure that any delay in the Neptune timeline will be compensated with a completely free hosted hashing packages to all fully paid customers.

D-link is router software...  You meant "Corsair Link"?
if not...it's here:    http://www.corsair.com/~/media/Corsair/download-files/drivers/link/Corsair-Link-Installer-RC-v2_6_5214.exe

Am I to understand that the "regular" corsair ax1200's are okay, and it's only the 1200i which the problem at startup exists?

Option B - most rails are "virtual" anyway, but as long as you have everything wired correctly this should not present any problem. You definitely want to pull from separate rails to avoid hitting the overcurrent protection feature of the PSU

Has anyone tried removing the LCD display and adding a 6th Neptune cube yet?  I would like to do this, but I don't think I could run 6 cubes on a 110V circuit.

Lazy. This was answered yesterday in this thread. Look back a massive 5 - 6 pages.

They definitely sending out batch 1. Just saw 5 neptune boxes at my hosting site!

Sure they are batch 1? Thanks for letting us know

HELP neeed ?

my neptune mine only  300 GH/s   ,

when j clic on tab  ADVANCED   ,Loading configuration, please wait..     and  nothing !

please sb can help me ?

[Micky25]

get 2 adequate PSUs, i.e. EVGA 1300 G2. Plug 3 boxes to one, and 2 boxes + the controller to the other. Start the first, then start the second (the one with the controller). Let them run for a while. If the temps show more than 110 clock down.

j have 2 x 1250 W  gold   seasonic

26 my temp all asci

they should be sufficient. Start the one without the controller board first. Let them run for 30 minutes, they'll level out.

You should try a different pool if the problem persists.

[romanosek]

do not quite understand, I turn on the same box   ?

Neptune unpacking/setup video (someone else's, not mine):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxd3YI2SY2M

It's mine
I assumed this video would be helpful for someone.

[Micky25]

do not quite understand, I turn on the same box   ?

Neptune 1/5 2/5 3/5 connected to PSU 1
Neptune 4/5 5/5 + controller board connected to PSU 2

Start PSU 1 first, then start PSU 2.

Did you try Ctrl-F5 (reload page from scratch)

Did you try each cube individually?
Perhaps one cube is hosed and spoiling the party.

Subdivide and conquor.

YMMV
