hey guys, planing to buy sp35, curently 5x ant s4. i cant find any reviews for them, can anyone say few words... can i overclock the sp35? are they stable? if i overclock how much power compsubtion will they need. the miners are ok, but i will not buy more of them. how are they compared to ant s5? thanks
off topic of your question, but sp35 runs only on 200-240V.
An SP35 will run on 120V (I've done it), but each PSU will be limited to 800W instead of 1600W. Still, you can get at least 3500 GH/s out of an SP35 at 120V drawing about 1600W at the wall. Of course that isn't the best use of an SP35 but, technically, 120V operation is an option.

I'm successfully running several SP35s. Great miner! Will purchase more

Man, I love these things.

Running 2 SP20s off of a single EVGA 1300G2, fans at 10%, getting 1.18TH/sec from each for 1100 watts at the wall.

What settings are you using?

M

Settings are Fan Speed 10% via cli
Start Volts Unit 1: 0.62
Start Volts Unit 2: 0.62
Start Volts Unit 3: 0.62
Start Volts Unit 4: 0.62
Voltage Limit: 0.65
Max PSU Power Unit 1: 150
Max PSU Power Unit 2: 150
Max PSU Power Unit 3: 150
Max PSU Power Unit 4: 150

Unit one has been at 1176.37 GH/s for the last hour
Unit two has been at 1183.44 GH/s for the last hour

Thanks for this! Smiley  I replicated this setup with two SP20s in my garage on the same PSU.  One is running at 1.13 TH/s, the other is at 1.17 TH/s.  Both have fans at 20 (I didn't bother finding the SSH hack), and are at 28C.  (it's REALLY cold outside).

The LED blink numbers (to have them handy with no ssh) in SP3x, FW 2.5.64,
mean such boot phases (init.d scripts):

20 logging
 4 mount/misc
 5 logging_nvm/hotplug
 6 hostname
 7 netplug
 8 nfs
 9 cron
11 spi
12 cryptodev
13 squid (loading FPGA)
 2 spondoolies (is IP assigned)
 3 spondoolies (no IP assigned)

Thanks for that info - job for tomorrow, I need sleeeeep.

BTW, the unit was not down clocked at all actually, I took the screen as soon as I managed to log in to it for the last time - settings were all standard as I had just reflashed the firmware......

Gutted. Good night all.


If you don't see them online, it's the weekend. Try an email if no one is active on skype.

I found this below .. in between. Same message as in your case.

SP20 arrived today; up and mining in 30 minutes

However, ASIC stats shows:
LOOP[3] OFF (test serial failed or something)
6: disabled (i2c good, no OC)
7: disabled (i2c good, no OC)


Should I be concerned?

~nh

PS -- email sent to support, but I'm looking for collective wisdom here...


Yes.
The unit didn't manage to make the 2 ASICs work. That is 25% of it's ASICs, so that has big impact. Both ASICs 6 and 7 sit on same PSU.
Try to switch PSU between boards to see if the problem in board or PSU.



FYI, I had the same message on one loop in my SP30. The issue was that the unit "learned" the PSU limits by itself and was getting more juice than was supposed to. Limiting the power to 1200W per power supply solved my issue. Right now it's kind of stable. Try limit your loops at 240 down from 280/270 if you figure out a way to start it again.

Zvi,

What can I do/check to have this LOOP 9 communicate with the rest of the rig? It usually comes back after a number of reboots/restarts and then fails again when the mining process is restarted for whatever reasons might be (pool communications .. etc). Eventually .. it brings the whole bottom board down, the miner then hashing at about 2.2Gh/s.

I lowered the power limits below those set by the miner itself, with about 30W per power supply. I also limited the voltage from 660 to 708 to avoid ASIC overheating (i.e. above 115 degC). The firmware is 2.4.23.

What did that electrician do at your place when you turned the units off for the first time with the new firmware?

Watch out for the "Neg-Rep-Dogie-Police".....

I guess one can see the placement following the temperatures .. Loop 0 and Loop 2 seem to be the front ones near the air intake. What's running in PatMan's screenshot looks pretty downclocked and placed at rear.


PatMan, get it touch with Mike/Sonya using Skype. Ask for the ticket number. Based on their recommendation you will get your units back working or they'll tell you the next steps.

Hi All
We have now new support team.
You can see them online as spond.support.1 (Sonya) and spond.support.2 (Michael).

They accept direct Skype calls between 14:00-16:00 and 19:00-21:00 Israel time.


You can also send mail like always, to [email protected].

If they can not help, they will redirect you to me.

Well, both are dead I think: SD boot won't work, SD recovery won't work, no access, no ssh, no gui, IP scanner can't see them, router can't see them, myminer.io is empty, multiple PSU's tried & no sign of overheating anywhere - just a spinning fan...... Sad

Looks like my first RMA request for my spondoolie friends x 2 I'm afraid. F*ck

What's the procedure SPT? Sorry.

What kind of PSU are you using ?
this error is very like one those when cables are not plugged in properly but if you have check that out already then its weird

I've tried 3 different PSU's so far, all 1200W+ Gold and all work fine on my other mining equipment. Even the SD recovery isn't happening......it ain't looking good eh?  Sad
SP-Tech, what's the loop to board mapping and are the two down loops on one board?

Hi SP-Tech,

Having major problems with two of my units again after the exploits yesterday. Came home earlier & both of them were down again, I've managed to get one back online after multiple hard reboots, PSU swapping (all 1200w+) then reflashing the firmware again, but its showing this:



I'm still trying to get the other unit back though...... Sad

I've checked all the connections/cables for any kind of burning/melting - they're clean as a whistle.

What do you think? Are they on their way out? At first I thought it was a firmware bug, as this problem only started after upgrading to the latest, but having seen my stats page above I'm beginning to think it's something more severe......

Peace.

hey guys, planing to buy sp35, curently 5x ant s4. i cant find any reviews for them, can anyone say few words... can i overclock the sp35? are they stable? if i overclock how much power compsubtion will they need. the miners are ok, but i will not buy more of them. how are they compared to ant s5? thanks

What does it pull from the wall running at 6thash? What are the PSU's rated for?
The PSUs are rated 1600 Watt (output, not "at the wall").
I don't know the pull from the wall in this case, it wasn't done by us. Should be considerably above 3.65 KW
Isn't that pushing the PSU's a little hard? I'm surprised you don't do internal testing on your own before the product goes to market.
The PSUs have over current limitations.
The PSU working point is approved by the manufacturer.
The amount of PSUs RMAs is negligible.
We do internal testing, thoroughly, as you very well aware.
We don't retest over clocking on every ASICs batch.

I didnt realise it was OC'd. Raskul made mo mention of that.

.. and to add a little .. the test conditions in Israel are a little bit different than in a generic north american household with 240V power or the datacenter conditions on the same continent with 208V supply. When you have 220V at the socket .. the unit behaves differently than in the cases mentioned before. You can relate though with the cases when the test conditions are similar.


MrTeal, if you have a permit and an inspector verifying the works no one will have anything against this practice. But if you do modifications which are not following the said path, the 1st worry is that you'll void the house insurance .. and in the event that one needs a firefighter intervention, they'll be left sleeping in a tent (if they still have one) and swimming in debt. Even then, there are worse things outthere.

Hello - Anyone by any chance has a script or alike that will monitor the SP's temperature overtime and is willing to share?

like this? >> http://powerprice.info/SPT/graphic.php (raskul .. see the cgminer restarts when the voltage @wall changes)

>> this is the part extracting the data .. https://github.com/wh00per/SPT-Historian

if you need help with the display part, I can post that too on Gitgub. The github package contains a pull request I've submitted long ago fixing some INC files inconsistencies in Minepeon. Be sure to remember that all the changes to the PHP scripts  (www folder) are not persistent after reboot.

I can parse the individual asic temperatures too .. but at that time I was not interested to go that deep.

WOW - thanks Wh00per .. will look into it!
