[sbfree]

ringtail, thank you. Can you post another updated pic. of the miner status after 8 hours of running so we can compare to slowroll's antminer for HW errors. I will be back on the forum later tonite. Thanks. sbfree

Here is a pic of it up and running next to one of my scrypt rigs. I added a 550 watt 80 platinum psu into the bottom crate for the s1.

lajz99, I sent you a PM and text as well. Need to know if you are still interested. I have a guy coming from San Diego who is looking for unit #4, told him it was reserved. He will be here shortly so it is urgent you let me know if you want the item today. thanks. sbfree

Ok so my s1 arrived yesterday and was super easy to setup had it out of the box and taking care of business in less than 30 minutes. I will upload some pics when i get a chance.I have a question about HW errors its seems to be getting quite a few no overclocking and don't plan on it, already has the latest firmware, seem the be the most common solution I found searching around a bit. Any ideas?

slowroll951,

I believe this is the correct formula for calculating your error rate. Please let me know how it goes. thanks. sbfree

HW / (diffA + diffR + HW) * 100

your error rate is really bad my guess is your psu sucks.     please name the psu and show the exact wire setup to us.

[slowroll951]

This is the psu I setup http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182082
its dedicated soley to the s1, using the formula calc above I get 0.47 atm. Its odd cause everything else seems normal and its doesn't seem to be effecting earning currently around 0.022 per day. Just not sure why the rate seems so high compared with other stock units. The psu has a single cable with 2 6 pin connectors that plug into the s1 and I have a jumper in place on the 24 pin connector, nothing else wires into the psu. It plugs into a surge protector then into a watt meter that also powers a scrypt miner and a switch pulling just over 1100 watts at the wall. I did have it plugged directly in the wall by itself the day b4 when I took the error pic and errors are the same the way it is setup now.

the one 1 pcie cable is not rated for 360 watts.

 it rates for less  300 watts 24/7/365 .


   that may be the problem.   do me a favor and run just the antminer with the same setup and measure just the power it takes.

 I have all plat psu's and I pull about 355 for 1 unit and about 720 for 2 units.

my guess is your meter will be higher the 355 more like 380 watts due to the underated pcie cable.  this means the wires are having trouble with the high load.

 or worse crazy low like 320 watts  which means the gear is underpowered.

  if the meter reads between 350- 365 .

 I am wrong. that the psu is the problem.  

but still correct that the cable is not rated for 360 watts 24/7/365 days.

Yeah, I have enough warm and fuzzy to pull the trigger Stand by.

[slowroll951]

So I checked and Im drawing 375 at the wall. I powered it down and put a molex to 6 pin adapter on one of the other cables  and still pulling 375 at the wall so I tried a 6 pin from the other psu powering the scrypt rig and its still pulling 375 and after 20 minutes hw errors are still progressing at the same rate as b4 any other ideas. Thanks for the help btw. I ended up leaving it with 2nd 6pin molex adapter on the platinum psu. Do you know what exactly the hw errors affect as the earning don't seem to be taking a hit is it a sign of potential hw failure completely if I don't get it under control?

I was contacted to escrow please follow instructions on my thread if its still needed.

Dude, your ant is right on the money. Your hashrate is hovering around 180 and your hw errors are only.19%(point nineteen percent).  That's excellent. Also, your fortress power supply is fine. It is a single rail and the 12v is rated at 546.



Using 375 watts puts you at 68%. Also excellent. Having only one 6-8 pin line is perfectly fine to hook up to the 2 blades.

Want to see an overclocked ant with terrible hw errors...



PSU is a Rosewill fortress 650.  5.5% hw errors with zero faulty chips(no Xs). Hovers around 195-199Gh/s reported by the pool. Compared to my other overclocked antminers, the excepted share diff is only 3-4% less.  Not bad at all.
