i have a question on the efficiency
When i mine using bfgminer on pi and mine coins like PPC or BTC it hashes at max speed
but when i mine any alt coins such as ZET or OSC or any other coin besides PPC or BTC i never get the 10 ghash unless i use mining proxy from windows
any ideas what is going on?

Apart from being all one unit rather than modular, can anyone advise me of any significant differences between v1 and v2 blades? I`ve just ordered 2 v2 blades and all the config i can find is for v1. I assume (rightly or wrongly) that both are virtually identical to set up on a proxy etc and therefore a seperate config details are not needed.
And v2 blades are not overclockable? Am I correct?
Thanks

Hi, Yeah correct, I have both V1 and V2 blades. The V2 blades are set to a set clock speed however mind actually run at 12856 hash a second so much better than the default 10070.
Power wise everything is all the same setup procedure follow the guide by OP.
Cheers
Sure wish they'd added PCIe power connectors to ver.2 Blades. Those green connectors are just a cruel punishment! Lol.

I one buys new blades and a backplane, I assume they would also need to run ethernet cables to each blade and configure each one individually, correct?
It sure would be nice if the backplane added more user friendly features such as the ability to use a single ethernet cable and configure all the blades connected to it at the same time.

Does the single x here mean that the blade has one bad chip? It persists after restart.
yea... check the voltages and tune them. Maybe increase them to somewhere around 1.05-1.10. Depending. There is probably one set of voltages off and that's your chip.

Potentially that chip (bank) needs a bit more voltage, otherwise yes. Edit: For the new blades, we have to assume its a dead chip.

When setting the same IP for the server address, the blade doesn't seem to be doing anything. On the mining_proxy side, I do see that new work is being requested, but no jobs accepted and it will keep asking for new work.
I have been trying to setup my blade (latest version) and I can only get 2000MHS to 38000MHS. I used a 2 molex to PCI-E 6 pin adapter for the power adapter with a 600W PSU (48A on 12V rail). I have each yellow wire going into the + inputs, and the doubled the black wires up for each - inputs. Please see my config below, as I do not see anything wrong with it. Also, there's no instructions for the new blade.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I notice that in this picture (and in the example on page 1), it shows two different IP addresses for the server. Are you really using proxies at two different addresses? Since you are getting roughly 50% of what you should, is it not possible that one of these addresses is not responding?
I have my blades set up with a single IP address repeated twice, because I am connecting to a single server, but I have not experimented with actually using two different servers. Does it alternate between them? Or maybe use the second one as a fallback? How does the blade actually use the second server?
Used dogie's method with slush and BAM! Thanks for kickass guide. Will wait to see if i get 10+ but hitting 9Ghz within minutes.

I also am experiencing low speeds. Please let me know if you find a pool working better. I am getting around same range of MHS.
I do noticed that my current server keeps swapping between the two IPs every minute or two. Is that how the blade work or is something causing it to switch back and forth. I pinged my stratum proxies and router and got avg 2ms reponse.

Config is right, physical setup sounds right. Check local networking, pings to server, to blade, to router etc. Try other pool. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I want to mine at 50btc.com because I like pps but I don't know how ! Can you help me please ? (I'm mining at slush pool with mining_proxy_1.2.0 which was downloaded at slush pool) Thanks !

this is what I finally got after changing my main IP address and getting to the configure page, but I my blade isnt hashing. If I use slush's pool can my blade mine without my computer being on and can someone help me configure my first blade so I can do the rest? Im a newbie when it comes to any of this and I don't understand proxy or stratum and so on so please be nice. Thanks

no, Slush's Pool doesn't support the Getwork protocol. This is why he wrote the Stratum proxy. the blade talks to the proxy and the proxy(on your computer) talks to the pool.
So if I switch to the stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 would that work without my computer being on?
no, the blade only uses the getwork protocal. the proxy is a translater between the two protocols.
Personally, I have my primary set to my proxy, and secondary set to connect directly with getwork
So if the pc is restarting, br0ken, off, etc... the blade just falls back to the getwork protocol. Works like a charm.
Since your pool doesn't support getwork at all, you could use another pool as your backup. It may be inconvenient to have small amounts of coin ending up on another pool, but it's better than losing them altogether if you're concerned with keeping the proxy up 24/7.
Which mining site will I be able to run these without a computer? Thank you for the help.
any asic coin that has getwork can be mined from the blade itself without the need of a computer
Well, my blades are hashing but none of the work is showing up on my account in slush's pool and the mining_proxy.exe keeps giving me this message; clean_job:false
