Did someone tune up the spondoolies hosted miners?

http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1Adam3usQMbQWScA5AXnnDsRMeZeCh6ovu

my 4x sp10 hashrate jumped from ~6TH to ~ 7.5TH? (Which'd be a very nice hashrate at 1.85 TH/sp10 vs 1.4-1.5TH advertised).

Maybe someone accidentally configured another one for my payout address during a reshuffle or config change?

We disconnected the SP10s and replaced with fixed RMA SP3x
More efficient.

Cowboy miner gear back in action? That's nice of you guys, win-win. DC saves power, client gets more hash

now with fan control:

did anyone succeed to find an adapter for the fan to fit in the very tiny 1,5mm contact spacing (it fits NOT that small 2mm VGA fan connector) of the controller board?
BTW: AFAIK these 1,5mm plugs are specified up to 1 amp, the stock fan uses twice!

~~- sum of PSU(unknown) input watts in addition to DC2DC watts, either on ASIC Stats page or main page, as for estimate of power at wall or PSU efficiency~~ <- will implement in 2.6.7. For sp20 I assume 90% efficiency

I think you misunderstood me:
the low voltage DC2DC watts are way below (80%) the watts at the PCIE connector inputs in SP20. And the efficiency between the PCIE and the wall is determined by the PSU and should be around 90%.

I mean summing up these 4 values underlined:

-----BOARD-0----- PSU[UNKNOWN]: 0->(162w/162w)[162 162 162] (->162w[162 162 162]) (lim=288) 0c 306GH cooling:0/0x0 -----BOARD-1----- PSU[UNKNOWN]: 0->(152w/152w)[152 152 152] (->152w[152 152 152]) (lim=288) 0c 289GH cooling:0/0x0 -----BOARD-2----- PSU[UNKNOWN]: 0->(176w/176w)[176 176 169] (->176w[176 176 169]) (lim=288) 0c 326GH cooling:0/0x0 -----BOARD-3----- PSU[UNKNOWN]: 0->(171w/171w)[171 171 171] (->171w[171 171 171]) (lim=288) 0c 320GH cooling:0/0x0

multiplied by PSU eta they are pretty close to the actual consumption at the wall.

may be also a nice point to watch on next generation miners to optimize that 20% loss of the dc2dc units.

Added auto-fan option in 2.6.6.
You can select "Auto" from the fan menu in settings.
It's experimental, please give your feedback.

First 5 minutes the fan speed set to 60% and can not go down, then it starts going up and down based on temperature.
The algorithm goes up very fast (10% every 10 seconds) if some ASICs above 120c, and down very slow (1% every 10 seconds) if all ASICs under 115c.

If it misbehaves for you let me know.

Seem to be working well, Thanks!

2.6.7 available in Spondoolies app-store for free 30 day trial

I feel like this is a dumb question, but can you point me in the direction of the latest firmware? I dug around in my account to no avail.

Cheers.

Firmware upgrade in web gui
choose "Manual(ly)"
choose 2.6.7-TEST out of the pull down menu-revealed by clicking on little up and down asterisks (initially only 2.5.12 is visible)

Really like the auto fan feature, thanks Cheesy

now all the units fan run between 6-8% much more quieter than before where the lowest was 20 (without using the ssh trick) Grin

Thanks for implementing my request. The interface reported fanspeed reading zero (which others have reported) is the only issue I can see. It does appear to keep temperatures <= 115. I understand why you set it to static for the first 5 minutes but I doubt you actually need to do that. You could probably just set the target temperature for the first 5 minutes to 110/105 instead, and that will then also be safe for ones that aren't underclocked as well.

Does the fan RPM show in the output from cgminer now?

Can I set it/can it go below 20% now w/o a SSH hack?

Thanks.

M

You can see real fan speed in ASIC stats, it's a bit complicated to move it to front page - I will need to dump it to separate file from minergate and I am too lazy for that.
Yes, you can set it to 10% or to AUTO that can take it down even to 6% if no ASIC reaches 120C.

That is true.
If you use your miner to maximal settings in hot envoronment don't use the auto - auto is only good when you are under-clocking.

Why is the maximum fan speed limited to 80% in auto mode?

Changed to 90% just in case.
100% fan utilisation I prefer not to do, it's not that efficient, and not needed. If you need over 80% fans, the autofan logic will just confuse the miner, the autofan should only be used for undervolted miners.

iptables does not have any sane reason to be installed on it .. It's a miner, not a router.
I'd add a switch to disable the GUI via ssh

like a symlink to etc/init.d/lighttpd stop ..

could it be possible to gather the firmware suggestions in a list and edit that list and extend?

~~- true fan speed control by target temp~~
- scheduling certains mining speeds(voltages) <- will try to implement
- individual voltage limits as right now for the back chips <- will consider
- Timezone "bug"? first page graphs are always UTC? <- will consider
- enable API in own subnet/net by web interface <- common! change /etc/cgminer.conf.template with ssh
- include fan speed in API datasets <- not likely, use remote ssh to change /etc/mg_custom_rate
~~- change host name in web interface~~
- other pool options than failover only <- common! change /etc/cgminer.conf.template with ssh
~~- sum of PSU(unknown) input watts in addition to DC2DC watts, either on ASIC Stats page or main page, as for estimate of power at wall or PSU efficiency~~ <- will implement in 2.6.7. For sp20 I assume 90% efficiency
- Graphs on the first webguy page, there should be a button to disable some/all of them. <- you can reset them with a button. Disable them in /etc/cron.d with ssh
~~- Poll page could be managed on the front page with up&down buttons on each pool~~
- GUI switches to turn off SSH would also be a good thing, plus for advanced users some sort of iptables in the OS for security. <- Use big random password from UI to disable it. Will consider adding iptables.
~~- show ASIC Stats~~

Pools can be dragged to change order.

Will be available in advanced settings from 2.6.7
