S2 has arrived  Grin  deilverd to my office . I can't wait to go home start the engine lol  Cool

Just start it the office Smiley your co-workers will like the noise xD  + free energy for a few hours!

nice idea Cheesy but i already hauled it my home. Now  problem is that s2 ip number ends with 1.99   my network is on 2.XX template. ı can't access it. Im gonna solve it in a few hours when i got back home again.
Let it pick up the 1.99 IP, then plug in your laptop directly into the ethernet port on the S2. Go into Windows ipv4 network properties, check "use the following IP address", change the IP to 192.168.1.1 and subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

Now you can access 192.168.1.99 directly in your laptop browser and via SSH. Smiley

Bitmain: Now that the S3 is about to hit the market, do you have an approximate date on when you plan to announce the upgrade path for the S2? This might be helpful for those considering purchasing S3's versus waiting to upgrade their S2's.

I wouldn't hold my breath, selling s2 upgrades at this point is rather useless both for S2 owners and Bitmain since it will be a few months before it makes financial sense to upgrade. If anything the S1 upgrade (if it happens) will be on sale before the S2 upgrade.
I don't think S1 Upgrade kit will ship before August 15, S3 batch 3 begins shipping late July will need a couple weeks to clear the shipping dock then a couple weeks to start boxing S1 upgrade kits and set a price.

Perhaps, it is time for a word about S2 upgrade with a new chip?

STILL suffering an overheating rig!

swapped IO board with functioning rig to no avail...

anyone have any ideas?

A schematic would be nice... particularly interested in heat/fan sensors location



Hate to be overly simplistic here but just covering all the bases. The fans are blowing in the correct directions right?

sometimes overly simplistic is all it takes to notice something basic..

like this one time that bitmain sent me a dead psu with the jumper in the wrong position...

but alas, no all fans are pointed in the right direction.

one of them does appear to have a bit of a dent in the grill which i might have missed but no.. the fans  APPEAR to be fine, its just whatever tells them to shut down is kicking in too early.

its ok if they stay below 60C but in the middle of the day we've already seen 72-74C.

Bitmain is sending a replacement 'power board' (aka back plane) today..

glad i didnt snip the blue wires...

my latest S2 died lastnight, was only running for 12 hours since it was delivered at my house yesterday.

i was checking my pool stats in the middle of the night while feeding the baby and noticed the new s2 not hashing so i went out to the garage and the power supply fan is spinning, but the s2 is dead, no lights at all

so i turn it off and on to no avail, then unplug it and move it to a different outlet and plug it back in and there was a loud POP and a spark flew out of the power supply.  upon closer inspection one of the capacitors blew and is leaking white stuff

had a spare 1000w rosewill psu i swapped it with and started up the S2 and wouldn't turn on agn, so i started removing hash boards and moving them around and came to the conclusion one of the hash boards is totally dead.  when this particular board is plugged in the unit wont turn on, doesnt matter if theres 6, 7, 10 boards plugged in.  without the dead board the S2 starts like a champ

the unit is now running fine with 9 boards and my spare PSU


contacted bitmain for RMA help and so far theyve asked me some troubleshooting questions, but at this point its pretty obvious what the issue is lol.



Hi -droid-
We are so sorry for the inconvenience, May you PM us your email address and order ID?
Thank you!

Edit: This case is pushed to next step, return issued parts and ship new replacement.
