ASICMiner Tube Group Buy #2

[Blazed]

Well luckily I am not in a rush yet...someone I have traded with is giving me the controller I need.  I will let you know if I hear back from Canary and what he says.

Well remember it is a holiday weekend Canary may not be around until tues.

I added a second fan .  it is giving me very good numbers at freq 260

Whats the lethal looking blocks holding up the Power Supply.

Looks like they should be in "Clue" right after the "pipe"  

or something that if you dropped while barefoot would remove a toe for you !!

they are used for tooling machinery.  but they act very nice to allow to psu to stay cool.

the second fan helps this gear a lot.

i am able to run it at oc of 290 and get 903 gh

I wonder if it would be possible to adapt an S1 controller board to run the tube boards.  That would be nice.

 well it is a different company so who knows.

At Canary  friedcat is offering coupons. So what is 1 unit price after the coupon. Since I purchased 1 unit from you I should be able to get a .05 btc coupon

So if I want one do I send you 0.99 btc?  plus a label?

Even with the restricted controller I do like this gear. A second unit allows me a second controller I am hopeful someone will figure a way to program a better gui into a controller.

Correct

thanks for info.

this gear really likes the second fan.  I ordered 2 of these from amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KESSI2A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I am 90% sure these will work.  they will move air much quieter. I should get them on thurs.
  A pair of 140mm fans will fit. a pair of these may even be better

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835220056&cm_re=silverstone_140mm-_-35-220-056-_-Product

these have the same mounting holes as the stock fan but are oversized .

Canary,
I did get an answer from FC in regards replacement which I will forward to you via PM. Thanks.

Has anyone shipped 10 of these into the UK yet?

I'm wanting to know how much the import duty is going to be on top roughly?

[helipotte]

Does anyone know if the Ethernet controller that ships with these has any sort of API output?  I monitor all my hardware with a web based frontend and would like to

monitor these too.  I have checked port 4028 and the "system" port and found no such output.

I was running a UK group buy but there wasn't enough interest. The import duty should be 0. You'll still need to pay an extra 20% for VAT though.

Didn't see any sort of api on the controller itself, but if you run them through a bfgminer proxy you can enable the api in the bfgminer config.

That is what I have been doing.  But using Bfgminer as a proxy locks up the controller.  No web interface/nothing but a blinking light until power cycled!  If I mine

directly to Ghash.io  It works great but no api.

Edit: Apparently Slush's pool works as well although I have never used that one.

Slush's Pool works no proxy, and does so very well.

use mmpool.org it works great or use ghash.io  or use slush  my issue with this gear is no auto switching on the controller.  ghash went down I happen to be in my home so i manually switched to mmpool.org

here is a shot of my mmpool screen and the tube screen

[helipotte]

MMpool.org. Did it used to be called Bitparking?

[philipma1957]

do not know but ghash went down so i joined it today.

 i just wish the controller had two lines and allowed auto switching

Interesting, I've been trying to chase down why my controllers keep locking up and rebooting (one controller per tube for two tubes, both spontaneously reboot or freeze at the same time). Apparently bfgminer is the culprit, then.

Any leads on what the issue is exactly, or how to resolve it?

edit: running tcpdump now so i can look for oddities in the packets ahead of whenever it crashes

 Why would you join ghash because it went down?
I wish I had known about the controller issue before I purchased.
Ghash.io sucks and we're forced there.  Come on friedcat!! Fix the controller!

Sorry I'm off topic.  Needed to rant ;(
