good point the sd card maxell 4gb class 4 that came with the Titan could go out (some have if the white light comes on and stays on)

should just flash the sd scandisk 32gb class 10 I have here and have it ready just in case that goes boom

the triplite 220v euro version surge protectors I'm pretty sure already saved my equipment had an Ice Storm yesterday it was brown out
flicker/dim city all day ..finally shut the miners off for a couple hours...so would recommend such to anyone running these Titans...they
are to put it mildly....wimpy ...

Wanna know a secret? Your kill-a-watt also works on 240v, you just need to make the female end of your 240v line 5-15R.

Also where I can find the image for sd card Titan

Thanks for the suggestions did all that before but went ahead and tested again for good measure. Just my luck of the draw I guess. Waiting on KNC to create a RMA. Definitely  learnt my lesson on this for sure.

litecoinpool.org has been working great for me.

So I am ok if I want to overcloked thanks

Any good pool

That's what I'm using.  2 Corsair HX850s (80-Plus Gold rated).

With all the cores clocked at 325MHz, power draw at the wall is 1620W.

If I assume the power supplies are 88% efficient, that means that each one is delivering 712.8W on the DC side, which is to say they're loaded to 83.9% of their maximum load rating.

The above is all when using 120V input, because, uh...well, because my kill-a-watt power meter only works on 120V.

Make sure the data cable is connected the right way around.  When correctly plugged into the controller, the cable should extend away from the edge of the controller board without looping around or being folded over.

More subtly, make sure you have the data cable plugged into both rows of pins on the cube board.  Since KnC opted not to use shrouded pinheaders on the hashing boards for some reason, it is all too easy to miss the back row of pins entirely and end up with just 5 pins connected.

Welcome to January 2014

Yes but if you plan to over clock above 300 it would be best to go with 1000 watt + the 850 watt will not allow you to overclock

Tested each one individually instead of sticking and trying to fix the same cube. Two(2) of the cubes are DOA.

Cube Bad 1

Once it is connected to the controller it fails to booth no matte what.The white light only blinks occasionally and the screen remains blank.  Changing the port  cables and re flashing the  SD card did not help

Cube Bad 2

This cube is not even detected by the controller at all. It does not show up in the interface however the controller is able to boot with it. Have also tried different ports

Is ok 2 psu 850 watt each one for 1 Titan??

Any news re our bonus Neptunes?

Hi Guys/Gals,


Got my titan today that was preordered unfortunately. However I am currently having some issues with the miner.

Symptoms:

1. Controller only boots and displays IP when there are no cubes connected
2. If any single cube is connected to the controller it refuses to boot

I also bought a new SD card and also tried switching around the cables. But the controller still refuses to boot once a cube is connected to it. Any advice or suggestions ?

Exactly. Please keep us all updated and if possible provide contact info for your friend's representative. I'm tired of waiting for KNC to fix all these problems and have requested a refund based on the product not meeting its advertised suitability for 'any scrypt application'.

In discussion with the lawyers today, my friend was advised that his company's handling of the cancellation was absolutely correct in that he could show evidence for KnC themselves admitting that the units were not able to mine on all scrypt applications, while "can be utilised for any Scrypt-based application" is still even being claimed on the product sales description on their website today and that his subsequent explicit cancellation instruction to KnC on the basis that they did not have a product that met the product description (and still doesn't!), meant that KnC do not have the right to declare the Titan to be a 'non-refundable' product because, as he suspected, they haven't met their side of the deal.

Although, to be honest, his lawyer doubted the likelihood of KnC declaring a product to be 'non-refundable' to stand up in court anyway as it would be considered an unreasonable condition of sale.

At the point you cancel, KnC are required to honour that cancellation on the basis that, all the while their product cannot perform as was originally specified, they have not met their obligations in the sales contract and, therefore, your cancellation is valid and they must refund the money paid to them. Even if they subsequently manage to scrape together a firmware that magically fixes these performance issues, it's too late, if you've cancelled the order then they don't get more time to try and fix the units deficiencies, they have to accept the cancellation and refund.

He has to wait on KnC's response to his lawyers letter as they have until Friday to refund the money but if they do not his company is just going to sue them.

So, that is a B2B transaction for you to consider. Despite KnC's attempts to paint a B2B sale to be subject to onerous limitations of liability, it is not. They haven't produced a product that performs as the sales description stated. End of.

Swedish law may protect the consumer but the impression from the above web sites is that the Swedish consumer organisations are not the enforcers of the law.  The consumer organisations appear to depend on the voluntary cooperation of both parties.

The Konsumentombudsmannen and Consumer Agency can do a range of actions but generally does not become involved with individual consumer disputes.

The Board for Consumer Disputes (ARN - http://www.arn.se) can make rulings but the rulings appear to be recommendations only and not legally binding.

The Swedish law actually protects the consumer a great deal. Not only do you have the right to a full refund. You even have the legal right to an additional compensation. Just bring them to justice, and you will see that they will have to pay you. Next to a law suit, I suggest you contact Konsumentombudsmannen here: http://www.konsumentverket.se/otherlanguages/English/
