Hello phillipma1957,
Thanks for the help first and foremost!
Yes, I could unplug the Ethernet cable and I would know which miner it's connected to.
I can also check my DHCP server on my router to see the IP's of all 48 miners.
I can then proceed to connect by using the IP's provided by the DHCP list.
However... Once I connect to the miner, I don't know which one it is on the shelf.
So I want to reboot the miner, but I can't identify which one it is on the shelf unless once I logged in... I can have it blink the led infront perhaps?
Thanks again

yes there is a way.
I assume you have 48 ethernet cables
doing your connections.
get yourself an ip scanner. my mac uses ip scanner home
windows 7 can use angry ip
my 2 miners end in .104 and .110 you will get a longer list on your scan.
unplug the ethernet cable on one miner while your wife looks at the scan list.
note which one drops off plug the miner back in note whay number pops up. label it.
the miner never gets powered off no reboot you miss under 30 seconds for each miner.

I'm feeling Abit sheepish typing this out.. 
Sometime late last week, I was feeling desperate for hashing power.. Felt kinda depressing looking at the 70 x S5's I had on the floor just sitting there and not hashing which I didn't have the time to put together.
So...
In a big haste, my wife and I put together 48 of them in a big hurry. Connected them all to the router and DHCP assigned an IP.
Basically powered them up 8 - 10 at a time and configured them.
Now I've got 48 S5's on DHCP but I don't know which is which. Now that some are showing visible problems on pool side, I would like to power off and reboot it but I don't know which machine is which worker and which IP....
Is there a way to connect to the machine and have it FLASH or BLINK the front light so I can proceed to map out which machine is where without turning them all off and starting 1 by 1 and setting the IP's.....
Thanks a big heap in advance for the help!
