sometimes I come close to machine or walk by it beeps.
maybe coinsidece but could help fix these errors

Its far, far more likely to be rentrig.co pool going down than a problem with your miner. I can't even think of a physical fault which would do that, but 100 for your network and mining pool. If you really want to test it, put it on one of the super pools (antpool etc) and see what happens.

oke but the fully random offline's?
also pool issue?

The pool warns me s7 offline, just like that!
the beeps are not really a problem.

bitmain does not respond trough zendesk.

I paid full price the get batch 1 miner and not even a resppose and 1 day delevered before compensation.
don't care about thouse thing but I want a fully working machine.
2000$+ is a lot of money for me.

But if it goes offline at random times and there is no fix, I will apply for RMA.

Beeping is a sign of losing internet or pool connection. What pool are you on and what backup pools?

first two are mininingrigrentals and kano as the third backup.

but why it randomly goes offline?

is this being fixed with firmware?

btw just got a dual-wan router installed Cool

DSL and cable, so i think internet is not the problem

I've been looking into getting one myself lately. Which one did you get if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks Dogie for your comprehensive guide to S7. I always read your guide before making a purchase and never had buyer remorse like early days of mining. Cheers mate.

I am glad to hear it, enjoy.

Hey dogie, I have a dumb question for you. You recommend the 1300w psu, but you need 10 6 pin connectors right ? Its 3 per board, and all 3 must be on the same psu. the 1300 w comes with : 6 x 6+2pin PCI-E and 2 x 6-pin PCI-E. So how to you rig it ?

With a decent PSU like this you're fine doing 2x PCI-E to each hashing board, = 7 minimum. If you want 3 PCI-E per board you can get some 2x molex to PCI-E adapters off ebay for a few bucks. Other non industrial solutions with 10+ native PCI-E will cost you far more than this.

Thanks dogie for the explanation ! May I suggest looking at the evga GS series, they come with a lot of 6 pin and 6+2pin connectors, for example getting the 850w gs gold can power 2 / 3 and then take whatever psu you have lying around for the other one. and keep the waranty

Cheers

my batch one s7 (shipped one day before delay comepensation Huh

)

ramdom beeps long and or short short Huh

offline just like that! at random times Huh

Is this normal I have 600 stickers and updated to 600 firmware.

The beeps is somthing I can live with, does not happen that often.

Do not forget to add that, if he does so, he will lose the warranty.

Well from what I've read plugging in a pcie 6+2 connector into the cpu slot (on the psu) will fry whatever your connecting.

You would have to verify the pinout. If you change the wiring so that +12v go to +12v and ground to ground, there should not be any problem, assuming the cpu socket is on the main rail. Seem risk prone.

I think the best way to save a socket would probably use perif to molex, then use a 2x molex to PCI-e adapter to power the controller.

I would not do this to power a blade.

So the pci connection on top of the S7 is purely for powering the control board? I'm thinking of running each S7 off an EVGA 1600, but I need another port on the PSU for the controller.

The EVGA 1600 should have enough cable on its own for 10 ports. With the 6+2 and 6 pci-e connector it comes with combined, this should not me a problem. If you mean because there are only 9 * 8 pins socket, there are two other things you can do;

Use a cable with 2 6 Pins, or use a 6 to 6 pin cable and use the perif socket to power the controller.

Lastly, the EVGA 1600 is probably a good pick if you want to OC it. But i guess 2x 750-850 G2/GS would be cheaper if you fancy running multiple PSU per miner.

Look into purchasing a molex to PCI-e adapter to get that extra PCI-e connector for powering the controller. I'm using a couple of those adapters with an EVGA 1300W G2 and everything has been working just fine. Small piece of advice, if you've purchased a new GPU recently they often come with one or two of these adapters, so you could use that instead of purchasing another for $4.
