E-mailed KNC about pre-configuring multiple machines for hashing and this was the response. For those of us hoping for a BTC windfall during burn-in, we might be disappointed.

Dear Dana,

If you mention your pool worker in “My Account”, both of your miners will be pre-configured with this information.

The live net burn-in will be done by using your pool and other details that you mention in common information for pre-configuration of your miner.

The burn-in will take about 5-20 seconds.

Okay, this is the part I'm confused about.  We can change the configuration right?  "Burn-in" is not permanent right?  I have a Jupiter coming Day 2 and another in "October."  Maybe I'll just change my info after the first one is "burned-in." 

no no, you are misunderstanding what burn-in is. its not "burning in the info to the chip" its turning on the chip to make sure it runs properly after heat and stress testing it, to make sure it doesnt fail. its about the physical chip, nothing to do with worker details.

Hey how come nobody has counted the number of PSU bags and multiplied by 3 to derive the total number of hosted units ?

We were waiting for you...

20 sec is not a "burn in". It's a smoke test. Means that unless it catches fire, it'll be shipped to you Cheesy
That's what I'm talking about!  Grin

For those wondering why we have been quiet on the forum, we've been busy setting up the datacentre.  

"pleeease no more PSUs, this is a third of the way through, and I just want my weekends back!"

They are only going to power up, not even time for things to heat up. What BS. They aren't going to risk pushing their chips in case they fail. In which case, a lot of defective units are going to be shipped to customers  Angry

i bet they meant minutes, not seconds.
I hope so.

Me thinks they aren't going to make September.  It's too quiet.  And if that is the case, where is the advantage for Day1, Day2, Day3 summer orders over the October orders?  Will October 15th be pushed to October 31st?

Zero - it is a total fail job..   sleep well


I am wondering how high the worry meter can actually go in the next two weeks?
To da moon!

I'm hoping there is a step in there to spray-foam pack around the coolers before they close up the case, or these things are likely to get beat all-to-hell during shipping.

Come on.  If they make it all the way to the end, can't you give them enough credit to know how to make the final step.

so any news about these chips ? how fast do you think it will take them to get everything ready? dead line is coming to its end soon and there is no news about a working chip, I have no order but I am really curious.

We don't need news about the chips.

We need news about a functional unit. I want to believe that this monday we will see a unit hashing and everybody getting a delivery date.
