Interesting, thanks for letting me know. It's the only thing I can find "out-of-place" on that unit compared to my other one that hashes fine at 400Mhz. I got confirmation from "ineedit" that all of his machines have 64Mb and he has one from almost every batch, so I guessed that was causing the problem. I guess I could answer my own question by swapping the controller boards and see how the machines do, but any downtime means no mining

Hi guys,
I have ordered 3 S1. Is it better to have 3 single psu for all S1 or 1 psu for each S1 ?
Could you tell me good and not expansive psu ?
Thanks

To run 3 S1 from one PSU you are going to need a 1300-1500W PSU. None of which are cheap, especially because three antminers really will use that wattage, so if you buy a cheap PSU that isn't really rated at the correct wattage you are going to get a very expensive lesson. But the cheapest,best, PSU you can get at 1300W range is the EVGA G2 1300W Probably cheaper to get 3 decent 600W PSU's

I find the Antec Neo Eco 520C does a good job if you want to overclock.

If you are trying to run 4 antminers on one 15A breaker I would suggest each miner have its own 800W Titanium PSU.

It says you can use a wifi connection, how would you config that?

I tried to do a little solo mining some alt coins but I keep getting rejects. Is there anyway to monitor cgminer or a logfile so I can tell what happened exactly?
I've selfmined using a bfl single connected to the same pc that the alt coin client is setup on, so I know it works. I have found blocks using the bfl single. To use the antminer, all I changed was the rpcallowip to allow the antminer to connect. I can see it connects on the miner status page and it shows it is working. But every single time it finds a block it's rejected. Any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? or what's happening?
I have the same problem, BFL miner working well, but AntMiner S1 rejects all found blocks on solomining. Any idea??

We aren't the only ones with this problem and no one seems to be able to help us, or we aren't directing our questions to the right person. I think we can't solo mine because the miner is too fast for the getwork protocol. I think we need to setup a stratum proxy for it to work. I briefly read about stratum here http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stratum-miningand one line that talks about ntime rolling says 'a block created from massively modified ntime can be rejected by Bitcoin network'. I think that is what's happening but really have no clue.

If you are trying to run 4 antminers on one 15A breaker I would suggest each miner have its own 800W Titanium PSU. Uh... a very large number of psus are most effecient at between 70 and 90% load so I would re think that.

Thanks bob coz I was re-checking my sanity... from my calculations, if these things are pulling 500W from the wall overclocked then it would be pulling 400-450W from the PSU, depending on what PSU was used to when measuring it (I don't have a killawatt). With a 520C I might be walking a fine line at just under 90%, but it seems to be handling just fine

My Antminer shuts down after like 20 seconds. I have tried everything I can think of. Tried all wires I can think of to connect the green and black wires. Tried paper clip and whatnot. Tried running only 1 blade. Tried cutting the green&black wires and connecting that way. Tried several PSUs from 650 to 1250W Anyone?

Buy a PSU tester and plug it into the motherboard cable with 24 pin and your problem is solved OR read a tutorial how to jumpstart a PSU the right way.

Thanks for the replys. What I forgot to add was that it was running fine for a couple of days before it started to do this. Any links around for properly jumpstarting a PSU?

Take some speaker wire and make the jump.

I would be extremely bad luck for both blades to do that. Sounds more like your power supplies need some load on the other rail. try plugging in a hard drive or something.
