Unofficial Spondoolies SP20 thread

[philipma1957]

well you have solved the problem set at 150 watts. the psu's are most likely garbage psu's.

please show all us  volt settings. while I research the psu.

I did some research

 http://skinflint.co.uk/eu/inter-tech-combat-power-cp-modular-750w-atx-2-2-88882084-a693333.html

multi rail psu  not 750 watts but 650 watts

each rail rates to 20 amps

so at best you could use  2 rails from each psu.

which in theory should do about 180 watts each with out over load.
they are not doing that but everything I find about these psu's = low quality
also you may be picking 1 rail not two since I can not tell how to pick pcie connections so that they are on different rails

Hy guys can anyone help me about my new sp20

i´m using 2x Inter-Tech Combat Power, aktive PFC, 750 Watt  (    http://www.future-x.at/inter-tech-combat-power-aktive-pfc-750-watt-p-73253/    )

what i´m getting is a shutdown after slow start

as long as i have the settings on 150 w everything works great

when i put it to 170w or more the shit breaks and first the psu and few seconds later the sp20 shuts down.

best regards

0,69 for all 4 psu settings

0,79 for maximum

ps how can i attach a picture?

best regards

[Imperator69]

okay thanx alot

could you tell me please which one would be better from http://www.future-x.at
so i can exchange them?

best regrads

update:

what i tried now works stable ... with your information about voltage and the psu :

0,67 v for all 4

max 0,67

wait wait wait .... 288 watts ??

try .65  for the 4

try .655 for max



what is happening is the most your psu can supply is 180-200 per cable.

you set at 170 watts sounds good.

buy the volts are too high.  the sp20 goes to the volt settings first then looks at watts second.

so you volts are set too high for those psu's


but wait why does 150 watts work?   I believe  setting of 120 watts 150 watts 180 watts  have a volt override  better then setting like 170 or 165.

I think if you do
.65
.65
.65
.65
 
max .655

with 150 watts you would be fine
then keep volts the same and bump watts to 160
then keep volts the same and bump watts to 170

no keep the volt settings

0,670 for the 4

 0,675 for max       


do the 4 watts at
 180

try that for an hour or 2

Question, how do you get extranonce subscribe to work on latest firmware?
Under settings I have 2 set in the FLAG box..

I put #xnsub after my westhash pool in the gui and it just stays in a dead state.
If I take off the #xnsub its alive.
Ive tried restarting the miner entirely as well, no change.

Unfortunately decent power supplies cost at least twice the price of the one you bought.

reread my post ... I updated to latest firmware =P
2.5.64 according to my miner...

In settings->flag ... I have in that box 2

but it doesnt work

After setting 2: Try restarting the miner from the pools menu by just hitting the submit button without changing anything.

Also I think if you get the extranonce working it changes the version of cgminer that is running to 4.8.0 which you can check from the main page.

I've tried restarts (and reboots), with and without changes - but just again now to be certain.  No change.  I am cgminer 4.7.0 across the board.

I'll try on mine in a sec but this is what Zvi said:

Hello,
I've got eight of the SP20 now.
They all have fw version 2.5.64,
my first 6 have cgminer 4.8.0,
but my latest two that i got from the group buy have cgminer 4.7.0.

reasons?
concerns?

(i tried searching back through the thread but i didn't find anything)

cgminer 4.8.0 means most probably that you set the "flag" in the advanced settings that allow extranonce version for nicehash.

[Biffa]

Just checked on mine, the extranonce binary is there as /usr/local/bin/cgminer-extranonce (4.8.0)

And there is a link from /usr/local/bin/cgminer to /etc/bin/cgminer which is the binary for the normal non-extranonce binary (4.7.0)

But setting the flags doesn't change anything, i assume it should change the link it to point /usr/local/bin/cgminer to /usr/local/bin/cgminer-extranonce

Hrm.  That's frustrating, to be sure.  I've got it working on the latest firmware with both the included cgminer as well as the updated binary.  I wonder if it's the difference in network topology, although I would find it far-fetched myself.

I'll ponder it.

In the mean time, what variables are you passing in the password?  I pass price and difficulty.  I also tack on %h to the end of my payment address to help identify the units.
