For this past week my S5 has been running well.
This morning it is unresponsive.
Apart from using Teamviewer or M Miner or sshing into the miner. Is there any other method one can use to reboot the miner?
The miner is on a remote site and i remote into a raspberry pi that i use to web into each miner.

Is that a controller designed for 3-wire or 4-wire fans? Also, on 4-wire fans the blue wire is internally tied high and the PWM signal is actually done by pulling it low during the off time, so disconnecting the blue wire is probably better than giving it 12V directly. If the 12V you're feeding into the blue wire isn't current-limited, you could be roasting the board's fan controller.

A 3-wire fan controller may not work for a 4-wire fan driving the blue wire, because the 3-wire probably provides power on the high and a no-connect on the low instead of a no-connect on the high and a GND on the low.

No Phill...It is the BLACK chip in the middle of the board ...marked "LM75" ...OK... Huh

Hope this helps...

Cheers,

I have marked the LM75 (TEMPERATURE Sensor) Chip in the following pic. Just stick a small heatsink on top of the sensors, one on each hashing board.

Sorry for bringing this up, but installing a heatsink on that sensor wouldn't that give false temp readings? Don't you want  the real temp reading, or trying to keep the temp sensor cooler is a good thing?


Yes it would give false temp readings. They wanted to falsify lower temp readings in order to trick the fan into spinning slower (quieter). There is no benefit to the sensor itself.



I had gotten an S3 to have its fans run faster by not putting thermal compound under the temperature sensor.  Recently I ran 12v to the blue wire of its exhaust fan and it runs hard albeit loud.  I now figure it was a mistake to skimp on the thermal compound under the temperature sensor.  Heatsink draws less heat from that spot from the board making it seem hotter than it would be thus the fan runs faster but nearby ASICs get hotter.  Must get in and correct that one of these days.  Am looking forward to putting a single pole double throw switch on a C1 fan so it will be taking power for the fan from the hashing board until I need better cooling in the summer when I'll flip the switch and give it 12v and run it full speed.

I've order a pulse width motor controller for a few bucks and am going to put it between the 12v and the blue wire.  If you want the fan to run slower that would work.  Thing is if the designer feels he needs that airflow then ....

Anyone put a S5 in an S3 case (with the top) and then see how well a push/pull dual fan setup works?

Not to bump an old thread, but in my experience many miners are giving far to much though to push pull, water cooling, etc - for their S5 units.

The method outlined in my Guide on Vertical Positioning of your units with a simple box fan keeps 6 S5 Units within close proximity to one another, with a single fan each - all very cool, and overclocked at 392.50. 

There are detailed diagrams in the thread found here:

Strato

But that loud 70dB is still there using the stock fans. If you have 6 of them in close range of one another you will need ear plugs.

This is real simple, you don't even need a calculator for it.
From what I've seen, an S5 will draw about 650W at the wall at 375M (estimated on the high side).
So 0.65KW x 24h = 15.60 KWh

Can someone do me some simple math today please?

I need to know approximate how many kwh per day that an S5 will consume based on a frequency of 375. Assume a constant ambient temp and I get about 1.2 TH. Please let me know how you did this calculation.

This just has to be rough and dirty. I'm exploring designing a small hobby farm.

Thank you.

That's exactly correct. The general form is:

power consumption (in KW) * time (in hours) = kwh

Thanks guys. Most helpful. My numbers say I break even at 5 units and I am estimating expenses on the high side. Basing everything on btc at current price. I may play with my numbers knocking price back to 1btc = $200.

BTW Bitmain, I need units to buy Smiley

I replaced the fan with below and added a 2nd (push / pull) in the rear. Cools fine and a lot quieter than stock fan configuration. Fan comes with extra long connector for 3 or 4 prong. Plugs right up and reads and controls as 2nd. fan.

>snip images<

cool. I thought that silverstone 140 mmm does not fit and needs to be cut. Did it fit well without any cutting of shroud both in front and back?

I thought the S5 uses 120mm fans?


silverstone 140mm has 120mm mounting holes

Calculate with 590 watts you have 14,16 kwh per day
Here you can easy check this by yourself (german but easy)

I received my S5 today and I'm having trouble getting it to hash.

Sometimes it will hash at around 650 Ghash/s for about 5 minutes and then it will be hashing at under 1 Ghash/s for most of the time.

Am I doing something wrong?

What are you using for a PSU?

Can you upload a screenshot of the status page please? What is the exact made and model of the PSU you are using?


It's an Artic Blue 850W, model no. AD-E850AE-A6 (I think) it actually seems to be working fine at 300M at mostly 900 to 1000 Ghash/s, had it going for a good while. Can't get screenshot right now as it's switched off for the night.

Its more than likely your PSU's fault as its quad rail, and I can't find ONE piece of information on the distribution of its power across those rails.

That's why I asked him the question. Almost every time that this issue comes up it can be traced to the PSU used. I had never heard of that one before.

PSU Ratings: +3.3V = 24A +5V = 30A +12V1 = 34A +12V2 = 34A +12V3 = 34A +12V4 = 34A -12V = 0.5A +5VSB = 3.0A

multi-rail power supplies suck. this one has 4 rails, each with a max rating of ~380W. depending how you plug your miner to it, you could easily be placing the entire load on only one rail and thus it trips
