Topic: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive ASICMiner Blade Setup - page 29. (Read 580761 times)

I use this, with 2-3 connected to it, and it works like a champ: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D7CWSCG/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1

it was working ok for 3 days with the same configuration.

i have only 1 balde wirch is powered by 1 PSU , i think that should be enough.

+1

I run 2 Blades with a PSU delivering 14A and 15A, wenn i connected the 3rd it took 2-3 hours 'til overheated and shut down! And yes, i know what i did and monitored the setup right next to me for several hours. 3rd Blade is now powered by another spare PSU 

Anyone tried powering them with high power 12V LED drivers? Some models deliver up to 600W or 700W at 12V, enough to keep 4 or 5 Blades running!

PM me some pictures of your wiring and cooling setup.

is not the fuse ...  when the fuse is broken the blade don;t start at all.

mine is starting , i can acces the configuration page , but i have that error :  chip :  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

When I got my blades, I got two replacement fuses also. They should be in a little bag.  VERY easy to miss as they are so small.  I think they just pop out? obv turn off blade first.....

Does anyone know how to have Superiorus check the fuses on the board.  I dunno where to beging trouble shooting hardware

Well i would try a diff psu, as running some fans is not the same as supplying the amps a blade needs.

is a new blade, has a week of use.

Is this a old or new type blade ?
If its the old type and you are using the high clock setting it may need the working voltage increasing.
Guide here http://bcoinnews.com/overclock

i have 3 coolers ( 1 on the black side and 2 on front ) i have reset it from config page, factory reset , nothing helps... same : Chip: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
the PSU is a normal PSU unit cu 12V and 10A  ( it is working because i have the coolers on this also )
the seller ( from ebay) has sent me a box with the blade only, no  no warranty from the manufacturer, or from him. ( and now he said the he is not responsable for this )
it cost me over 800$  and get nothing now...
i dont know who is the producer of these , what should i do ...

Have you got plenty of air flow etc?  Assuming you have, so what you could do is go on the config page and reset from there.  What psu are you using?

Easier way would be to open the notepad, paste the line, choose "save as", switch the file type in the pull down menu from ".txt" to "all" and name the file (for example) "bfg-blades.bat"

When you click on "save" the *.bat is created at the specified directory. Open a console an start it, if there are errors you will be able to read them. If you start the .bat with a double-click the window will be closed if there are any errors preventing the miner to start!

Hi

I have a problem with the blade.

After 3 days of working now i get this error message :   "Chip: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

I have try with a factory reset , but no luck.

The power module is working.

Any ideea about what i should do ?

Thanks

Open Notepad. paste the command line

Save it as Miner.txt
Rename Miner.txt to Miner.bat

You may need to goto your folder options, and uncheck the box the hides file extensions.

Thank you for all the help I got one of the blades working on this setup. I don't know how to make a miner .bat file in order to use bfgminer. I tried using notepad but that didn't work, lol.

Here is mining proxy- command line

mining_proxy.exe -o stratum.btcguild.com -p 3333 -gp 8331 -cu i3lome_1 -cp x



8331 is the port where you should point your blade.

You need the new Bfgminer 3.2.1 32bit version- The 64bit version doesn't support blades

make you a miner. bat file with the command line below
bfgminer --http-port 8330 -G


Then point your blade to your pc's ip address, and port to 8330

Once bfgminer starts you will be able to add any pool


Here is my bfgminer.conf with btcguild already in it- just change usernames for your worker
{
"pools" : [
   {
      "url" : "stratum.btcguild.com:3333",
      "user" : "i3lome_1",
      "pass" : "x",

I'm running the proxy on my office machine, WinXP Prof. Setting it up was really easy!

- Download the mining proxy, copy it in its own folder, switch to the console, get the proxy running with "mining_proxy -o stratum.btcguild.com -p 3333" for example

- Point the blades to the machine running the proxy. Just make sure you enter the ports and IP twice separated by a comma like "192.168.0.2,192.168.0.2"!! The same with username and pass like "username:pass,username:pass"

After you clicked on "Update/Restart", you should see some action in the open console window on the machine running the proxy, like the blades asking for work, submitting shares to the proxy and more.

You can check if the proxy is working correctly if you point BFGminer to it, too. If BFGminer is running on the same machine, enter 127.0.0.1 for the pool-server (the proxy)

For some reasons i haven't figured out yet my blades keep asking the proxy for work a few minutes and nothing happens. Suddenly the proxy provides them with work and all running smooth as usual!

I am running 3 blades on BTCguild but they shut down the getwork proxy and I cant get the bfgminer to recognize my blades. can someone using BTCguild help me get all 3 of my blades up and running. Also, I already have 9 usb block erupters running on bfgminer 3.1.4 already. Windows 7 64x

Thank you so much.  

EDIT: I have also tried using Stratum mining proxy, but I can't get it to work for BTCguild.
