1 ps has 6 connectors and runs 2 hash boards. 1 ps has 4 connectors and runs the other hash board and the controller. Yes, it's 120V.

I have 2 hp 1000w psu's with X-Adapter REV 2 & 14AWG THHN Cables(the kits you see on amazon, etc). I can't get the red light by the ethernet port to go off. I think that light means it's in some kind of fault mode. There are no stats in the miner status page, not even the fans. It's like they don't exist. I need to figure out what the problem is. Can I just plug in one board at a time to see if they work independently to see if one of the boards is bad? I unplugged everything and checked the power supplies and was getting 12.79V on all 10 connectors.

All 10 power connectors are plugged in. The control board is connected to all 3 hash boards with the ribbon cables.

Any help would be much appreciated.

How is the wiring split on the 1000 watt PSU's?  And are you running them on 120 volt? 

Looks like on 120 they go down to 800 watts.  So curious on your wiring.

Do you mean in powering up? I have turned them on at the same time and then the 2 hash boards on one ps and then the other hash and controller. So you want me to reverse that order?


and thanks for your help

No, you did it right. Regardless you should see the board. It look like cgminer is not starting, this is something that could happen if you bricked the controller by trying to update the firmware.

You'd have to post the log and see why its not starting. But that's a bit over my head so someone else would have to help with figuring out your log, assuming you did not mess with the firmware.

Try connecting the control board first.
