To those with batch 2 units. Someone mentioned that there is a new power supply? How many watts now? and how many watts drawing at the wall? Have the new heat sinks improved cooling at all? What is new temp range? and range of temps on chips internally? New Case? Better / worst design? Thanks for any additional information.

HolyScott

yeah what is the new

 'psu'

watts at the wall

db sound level

 what does it clock to? 

1100gh at 1100 watts vs 1000gh at 975 watts?

Just finished surgery on  batch 2 S2's after receiving them today. All is well and they are all hashing at around 1 TH/s. As others have mentioned before, you will need to open the unit to reseat some of the cards.

Are these upgradable considering the relatively  modular design ? The PSU can be upgraded and the "wafers" can be removed.  Your thoughts ?

LOL what? you know what wafer means in semiconductor?

I hope you meant "modules"



LOL what? you know what 'are these upgradable considering the relatively modular design' means?

I guess you meant "sorry bud, im clueless but i can mug you off for no apparent reason"



Hey dumbass, why even open your mouth and confirm you're retarded?

Those module boards should never be called wafers.

Now go crawl back to whatever filthy hole you came from.

for all your smartassery, you chose to get stuck on the word wafer rather than the entire remainder of a simple and clear question. You knew what he meant - wafer was just a mistake choice of words, to which you had no actual answer

The correct word would be blade/daughter board but that doesnt matter.

When you say wafer can be removed, its completely confusing and misleading.

If you dont correct them so they will keep using confusing words?

I did hint that he should simply call them modular board.

S2 arrived today and was setup. Using teamviewer remotely (I am away this week and someone else plugged it in for me) I was unable to login to the webUI using root/root OR root/admin.

however, using SSH and root/root I was able to modify the settings   
Code:
vi /config/cgminer.conf
  with my pool info, and seem to be hashing away great now.

still cant login to the web UI, is root/admin not correct for batch 2 units?

As stated in the PDF, root/root is the login for the webGUI.  It worked for me.

didn't/doesn't seem to work.  i get a popup box to login at the ip but after 3 attempts am sent to a 401 page

Folks please stop with the delivery hype my god.

This miner is okay its not worth all this hype.....

What do we have a bunce of Bitmain plants.

A Cointerra would have been better for the price.....

So stop all this delivery BS its gets old

Lol, WTF?!  This is the BitMain S2 thread.  Where else are we supposed to talk about this?

Delivered it much more important than each state of movement.....laughing you have to admit

Got my B2 - S2 today, all was found in order upon inspection. Password STILL does not update and default does not work for SSH either. Has anyone gotten past this? Firmware installed from bitmaintech is "Thu Apr 10 19:08:42 CST 2014"

SSH is:

root/admin

Password updating is probably not kept on the config drive so it is not saved between reboots. You'd need to build your own firmware to change these things around.

Kano knows something about this.

Thanks. Rgr on the reboot issue, I had read thru some of kano's posts, but the S1 root/root was not working. She runs though now to alt the configs, tune, and deploy to rack!

Same (or similar) problem here.  Through browser root/root leads to a webpage not found error.  Through SSH, root/root gives access denied.  Through SSH, root/admin logs me in, but can't see any directories or files with ls command.  All boards seated okay.  Internal Ethernet jack connected.  LCD screen appears to work fine and shows the default IP address 192.168.1.99.  I'm truly at a loss of what to do...

There should be something you can do to reset all settings to the default just like the S1...

Is there a reset button that you can hold down for a few seconds to reset all config setting to their default settings?

received my batch 2 order.  cards in the units were only slight unseated.  hashing away nicely at just over 1005 GH/s avg.  I'd have to say that I'm a bitmain convert.  I have a few bitfury kits with Spotswood's open air cases.  I'm liking the builds and how easy these bitmain units are to setup and get up and running.  good stuff.

mine arrived from UPS about 2 hrs ago.  I plugged it right in without opening it to verify no loose cards or anything (yeah probably a bad move on my part) and i got lucky.  it has has been hashing 1.00424TH average since i got it turned on.  havent tried to tweak it yet by replacing the power supply and overclocking.  that will be my next move.

Congrats! I'm sure Bitmain learned from the problems of batch 1.

I'm really interested to see how batch 2 people react after receiving their deliveries over the coming days. All being well, I'll hopefully be a batch 3 customer ... just not sure when they might release them though ... I wonder if they might wait to check that batch 2 customers are happy first?




I still had one of my batch 2 with asic blades all over, so you'd still better check things. Brand new power supplies, same asic board, just new heatsinks. controller board doesn't have the soldered/glued rework wire, so it sits in nice and snug now. New case, uses smaller screws, and 2 extra. The screws do have a habit of stripping the threads, which is a huge pain in the butt.

Best of all, the damn things just work. I've had a huge headache wiwth Batch 1, the systems not rebooting, needing power cycling, needing reflashing of the MicroSD cards, so far, I just hooked the batch 2 up and they've been running. I think I've had to open my Batch 1 units up at least 3 time each on average.

So far so good with mine.  I did open it up first and 4 or 5 boards had to be reseated as they had loosened a bit during shipping.  Build quality seems quite good.  My lid is bowed-up a smidge in the middle but not real noticeable.

It's running at advertised speed but fluctuates a bit, which is to be expected.  I'm pleasantly surprised at how quiet and cool it runs for how much it hashes.  I have it setup in my bedroom at the moment because I'm a bit nervous about overloading other circuits.  I like white noise when I sleep so I might actually keep it in there for now.
