Does anyone know what it means when cgminer says this at start: I don't have the CAN-BUS cable so just have a BitBurner X and a BitBurner XX each on separate USB cables. I'm using these cgminer settings: --avalon-options 115200:2:10:28:450 --bitburner-voltage 1334 --avalon-temp 30 --queue 4 -G Does that look right for my setup? I seem to be getting pretty good rates. Maybe the settings are too fast and too cold. I´m running my Bitburners with this: --avalon-options 115200:32:10:35:380 --avalon-auto --queue 4 --bitburner-voltage 1285 With this settings the bitburners are running with 435 to 446 MHz, depending to the temperature. ( At the moment 445 MHz, 45°C) They are running fine with a raspberry pi. I used this tutorial: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=233392.0You should replace the 35 with d since you have to change that value everytime you change the MHz otherwise. And when changing the MHz you need to change the voltage too otherwise HW-errors are too high.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Im a bit puzzled now. I host some miners for another user. 3 bbxx + 1 bbx in one stack. It runs at 26.5GH/s, thats 7.57GH/s for one bbxx. Not much. I previously had 5 miners and they ran at 43.75GH/s, which is 8.75GH/s per bbxx.
Now i got 10 more miners that run in another stack. Its 10 bbxx. And they only run at 64GH/s. Thats 6.4GH/s per bbxx only.
I dont know whats wrong. All run in one cgminer-instance, so two miners are recognized. All miner are blinking with all colors.
I ran my old 5 bbxx, that i dont have anymore, at the following settings:
--avalon-options 115200:10:10:28:450 --bitburner-voltage 1334 --avalon-temp 30 --queue 6
I ran the 3.5 bb at
--avalon-options 115200:8:10:28:450 --bitburner-voltage 1334 --avalon-temp 30 --queue 6
and the 13.5 now at
--avalon-options 115200:28:10:28:450 --bitburner-voltage 1334 --avalon-temp 30 --queue 6
I found that the second value in options should not be too low, but it doesnt matter if its too high. Since i dont know exactly how to setup for 2 stacking towers i simply used 28.
But i dont really get whats the problem. Why should my old miners run faster and the newer ones slower? queue 10 didnt change anything too. HW is under 1%.
7.5 miners are powered with a psu from burnin, the other 6 with an Seasonic Platinum SS-1000XP. The workload of the raspi is at 7%. Could it be differences in pools used? I used bitparking.com with my own miners and now bitminter.com is used. All boards are on firmware 1.0.2.
Do i really have to start testing and tweaking everything from the start because every setup needs its own settings? I mean it cant be normal that 10 miners only bring 73% of the hashrate of 5 miners got before.
cgminer didnt change in an unfortunate way right? 1334mV and 450MHz i used before can be used now too. In older cgminer-versions i had to manually edit cgminer sourcecode.
Someone knows?

Maybe it's time someone does some experimenting with the number of boards in a stack versus total hashrate. So 1 stack of 8 boards, 2 stacks of 4 boards, 4 stacks of 2 boards and 8 single boards.
It would require 1 canbus cable with 8 connectors + 1 usb cable, 2 canbus cables with 4 connectors + 2 usb cables, 4 canbus cables with 2 connectors + 4 usb cables and for the last test 8 usb cables.
cgminer can be pointed at the right stack with some command line arguments that I will have to look up.
all cgminers report the shares found to a separate logfile, so that can be used as a good source for the comparison.
Anyone with too much time on his/her hands?

OK with my settings I'm getting this: BTB 0: 38C 450 1339mV | 5.624G/4.472Gh/s | A: 25954 R: 322 HW: 54 WU: 62.5/m BTB 1: 57C 450 1371mV | 11.66G/8.966Gh/s | A: 55200 R: 362 HW:145 WU: 125.3/m That seems like a reasonable error rate and hash rate correct? The BTB 0 is the 10 chip and the BTB 1 a 20 chip.

Why don´t you use the --avalon-auto ? So you don´t have to look the whole day at your bitburners. cgminer runs every cluster at the optimum.

The BTB 0 is the 10 chip and the BTB 1 a 20 chip. Hashrate looks good to me. As a rule of thumb: "(MHz * Chips) / 1000". In your case (btb1): (450 * 20) / 1000 = 9 Gh/s; so your 8.966Gh/s is pretty close to that.

I tried that with my old bitburners once and the result was far from perfect. Ill give it a try again.

And someone i sold bitburners too get the same good results too. I dont see whats the problem. I mean its the same place they are placed, settings are same, cgminer is newer, psu is burnins partly, its rpi, though another rpi, all are flashed to newest firmware... i dont see the difference.

I had a lot of problems at the beginning. Some bitburners stopped working. After reboot they worked for a few minutes, then other stopped. I tried different settings. But the the system did not work stable. Then I used this: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B000KY7VY4/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.. and all the problems are gone.. Now the system with raspi and 48 bitburners is running for days without problems. ( using --avalon-auto)

- timeout is to low, for 420Mhz i should be 30 - try voltage 1334 - if still isnt working properly lower clock to 399, voltage 1280, timeout 32

Your USB-Port, you connect the miners with, is powered too low. Try another port or use an active USB-Hub.

I was thinking about how to get redundant power supply for my XXs. Taken the following setup: First board connected to a PSU via PCI-E, second board connected to the first board via power stacking ("green screw terminal"). What would happen if I connected the second board to a second/different PSU (while the power stacking stays in place)? Would that work or cause a short circuit or even damage the boards?
