xstr8guy,
Thanks for the info. The HP rack mount server PSU I'm using (which is the recommended one) says to not exceed 900watts at 120VAC. If I do my math correct that would indicate that a backplane with that PSU can only support 8 blades in any case (8 blades * 1120watts). Is that why you only have 8 in your back plane OR do you plan to add two more?

Make that 8 blades * 120 watts (at peak) = 960 watts.... woopsie. Either way, still looks like it's unwise to populate that back plane past 8 Gen2 boards on that recomended HP rack-mount PSU. Any thoughts?

Looking for some Ideas Gen 2 blade GREEN issues: I am now more perplexed as to what is the issue with my blades. I now have 2 blades, both are using power supplies with well more than the 8.3amps on 12v that is needed triple the amount needed in fact. I pointed 1 to a bfg proxy and 1 to slush's mining proxy program but neither will exceed 7.2gh/s. If it were network traffic issues adding the 2nd blade in "theory" should have dropped both?! They are in the same network. They both insist on changing proxy servers about every 40 work units requested. You can not put a blank or the same ip for both servers or they will stop requesting work after 40 until they are rebooted.
I put a bfg proxy on a server and pointed them to 2 ip's on the server which works. but they do not exceed 7.2gh/s
I setup another proxy on another server and pointed the other blade at it. still will not exceed 7.2gh/s. I changed one of the proxys to the slush miner and the other to bfg, still wont exceed 7.2gh/s
Neither are running hot, they have more than enough cooling on them. in BFGMiner the first column says 10ish/7.2/7.0gh/s What does the first column mean?

I had similar issues with 1 Blade. After fiddling with everything, someone informed me that my Dlink router was garbage and could have been the issue. I upgraded to new Belkin Dual band, Miner has been stable for weeks now. No random disconnects or proxy changes.

these are located in a server room with all high end equipment. I can't fathom stuff that can handle mega traffic would trip up on this stuff... but its gotta be something... I have both going to the same worker, maybe slush's auto diff thing is setting the diff too high... I am gunna try changing to 2 workers

I point 6 Blades to my desktop running the mining proxy. Actual difficulty set by the proxy is 32 from what i can see rushing through, and all 6 running at 10.3GH - 10.8GH average!

Oops, sorry, didn't see your post. Yes, I don't dare go past 8 blades with the HP server PSU although I don't think gen 2 blades use more than 80 watts since they aren't overclocked. But I'm not certain of that.

But I'm not certain of that. My gen 2 blades pull about 6.3-6.8 Ampere each, which is 75 watts - 82 watts. 10 gen 2 blades should use roughly estimated 800-850 watts, if they overload the PSU it would get warm and shut off by itself like PSUs for desktop computers do!

I need help with the setup of one blade, please. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi1359.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fq796%2Fhx8RW8j3MHZNMOxSCNN7%2FSetupBlade%2FSetupBlade_zps07af1eab.jpg&t=665&c=BYAb70uYZpK-gA) The user and the password are in the following form: user:password,user:password The setup for the stratum proxy that I have is: mining_proxy.exe -o eu-stratum.btcguild.com -p 3333 Help, help, help, please! Going off the top of my head: Make sure your user/pass are the ones you setup for btcguild. Make sure the proxy is running on the system you have marked as the SERVER on the settings page. Make sure the system running the proxy isn't blocking port 8332. Aside from that, it looks like it should work. If you'd like to see better stats on your miner, read back a few pages and look into using bfgminer as a proxy.

I need to resolder dead fuse on blade V2 (green PCB). But I could not find any specification for this fuse. Do you know somebody? Where to buy it? Please help.

Bought a few as replacement for the blue blades from a local electronics store for a few cent each! They were 10A ones. IMHO it would be easier to solder two wires to the blade and connect them to a socket used for car fuses (the ones the gen 1 blades use)
