S9 First ever boot up question

[Jinx3825]

I AM USING APW3++

So the paper that bitmain sent with the S9 says to power the 3 hash boards first and then plug in the controller or whatever it’s called. All videos I’ve watched everybody always plugs in all 10 right away. What’s going on? Which do I do? Also future power ups and downs what do I do? Any advice would be helpful. I apologize for my newness. Thank you .

Feel free to plug everything at once, meaning plug all cables from PSU(i hope so you are using 1600w and only ONE PSU). Plug all cables from PSU to hashboards and controler, plug Ethernet cable, and then plug PSU into wall. There won't be any problems. Depending from the batch MAYBE you have blank OS, you can search topic here on forum. Wait 10-20 minutes. Use program called "Advanced IP Scanner" login with root/root. And you will see all the data. If you can't see "Miner Status" page. Then you have the problem i have mentioned.

I forgot to mention I’m using a APW3++ what about future intentional shutdowns? For example in a month or two I’m moving. Once shut down just simply rinse and repeat what you said?

Yes, no more, no less, you won't have any problems.
