Does anyone know if it's possible to set a limit on the fan speed ? Would be nice to have the option to run the fans quieter. The rigs are running around 49-52C and the fans cycle between high and low quite frequently. Room is kept at 25C.
My dream for a miner: the one WITHOUT fans. Can it be done with large enough heat sinks?
Very unlikely in a normal environment. That would have to be one heck of a heat sink and the temperature of the room would have to been extremely cold.
futurovida,
Out of curiosity what did you use for fans case etc? Interested in trying ones but looking for ideas on the best way to setup. Thanks.

Bitfury from last year could run without fans.
Anyone got a spare s2 coupon? Would be greatly appreciated.

It looks like a voltage regulating resistor is reaching a thermal point which it can no longer handle and opens. Or circuit protection device on the controller board. It may be prudent to inspect each solder point for possible crack that may allow the circuit to open when the physical temp. of the controller board surface lets the surface mounted device pull off the board, or a bad bi-metal relay opens.
I have an unusual problem.. I used to be able to tunnel into my S2's via SSH, but now root/admin isn't working as a username and password. It seems to have changed (?). I've tried root/root, admin/admin, admin/root, root/admin.. no dice.
The web interface still works fine with root/root.. I just can't get in via SSH anymore.
How can I resolve this?

It may be time for a reboot.

Depending on what program you are using, you may need to delete the "known_hosts" file where the S2s ssh key was stored. Some SSH clients refuse to connect if the keys don't match, although it's odd that it doesn't provide you some feedback along those lines. Once you've removed the "known_host" file, you'll be prompted to accept the SSH "fingerprint" that the S2 is providing again.
The S2s key may have become corrupt or changed, which is why this might be your issue if removing the "known_hosts" file works for you.
To learn more, take a look at how SSH uses keys: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Shell#Key_management
Does anyone have an idea what to do when the miner does not turn on again?
After setting it up it hashed a few minutes, beeped and turned off since then. I already re-plugged the cables and cards are also all seated correctly...
Edit:
After waiting ~20 Minutes I started another try. Switched it on and suddenly it started to work.
I was able to access the web frontend but for some reason one blade did not show any temperature:
A few seconds later the miner powered off by itself and does not power on again (for ~20 Minutes or so I assume/hope).
Can this be the problem?

I did some more tests. For some reason the miner seems to run stable as long as only 9 cards are inserted. It does not matter which cards and which slots are used (at least it seems so) as long as only 9 cards are inserted. As soon as there are 10 cards inserted the miner immediately turns off after the "start beep" (the beep which comes after it is fully started and the display has been "initiated").
Can a "weak" PSU be the reason? Unfortunately I do not have a 1000+ W PSU here to test it...
So I added a kind of electricity meter to see how much power the miner requires.
This is with 9 blades attached:
And this is with 10 blades attached:
As you can see the miner draws ~1040W until it turns off. The PSU is a 1000W PSU, maybe this can be the problem?
As mentioned before the system is running stable when only running with 9 blades...
