Hello,

Where did KNCMiner's Jupiter Support Page and Forums go?? I been out of the mining loop for the past six months, and now I can't find Jupiter stuff anywhere on KNCMiner's website.  Huh  Long story short, my computer crashed recently, and the ONLY things I didn't have backed up anywhere else was all my KNCMiner firmwares/config files/etc.! But now I need all that stuff again to set up a new miner, and it is like KNCMiner erased Jupiter's existence from the Internet. Well I did find one thing...

https://github.com/KnCMiner/images

which just has the stock firmwares...but I am looking for two things specifically...

-latest BertMod firmware...I remembered looking for it last year, and that was a PAIN, but I found it. However, I don't have it anymore and I would like to know where I can find it again.
-Next, the simple, but useful 'enablecores.bin' file. I can not find this file anywhere, Google is definitely failing me on this one! I am guessing someone is going to have to send it to me or host it somewhere...

thanks in advance!

Sadly the only limitation is not within the cables themselves. Its within the PCIE 6pin connector as well, its actually rated up to like a max of 23A current. We run these things really close to that limit ..... 24/7

I don't think that's it as I use the Shakmods cables and it's been plugged and unplugged a few times as I've moved it around my server room and I always double check given the silly level of current going through them, but will definately look again the next time i'm there, thanks

Guys the stability of the titans can be improved so that they dont break down or overheat all the time. Im working on ways to repair them and make them stronger so they dont break down as much. Hang in there, there is a lot of trial and error I need to do. This will include larger , faster fans, enhanced cooling on the vrms, and thicker gauge 3 to 1 pci-e connectors. When Ive got everything working perfect , I will offer my services to the public. Ive got atleast 13 dead titan cubes, so I have plenty to practice on

Yes, most likley its your PCI-E Y plug or the PCI-E port on the cube. Try to remove and reseat the pci-e connector. Look to see if its brown or burned. Im working on a pci-e connector with thicker gauge wire that uses 3 female plugs to 1 male plug. Im hoping to ease the load on the wires. Ill should be selling these in about 2-3 weeks. Need to test first.

Out of interest does anyone else have a die that only half works like this....



What happens is when bfgminer starts, it says the die is configured successfully, 0 shows around 4 amps and 1 shows around 42 amps.  There are no error messages regarding this die but after about 5 minutes it reports that it is configured successfully again, and the amps go to what is in the screenshot.

It's been like this since I got it, have tried voltage and speed tweaks so don't think there is any hope for it, was just curious.

On MRR. They're generally good at setting proper difficulty, if not a short message usually sorts it out. There are always some idiots, though.

My firmware is not an upgrade firmware its a clean flash. You have to overwrite ur SD card.

Why to used that .

You have to use win32diskimgr or w/e it is....
Given ur issues downloading it Im willing to bet its corrupted somehow.

I can not install it at my Titan

I do not know why

Does anyone install

Success the firmware?


I downloaded but firmware can not install it

Where do u rent it out at? How reliable are the renters, as in how many actually set vardiff correctly and dont cause the titan to freak out? Im curious, seems like renting is moot now =/

I had no problem downloading the image. Haven't tried it yet though since my rig got rented while it was downloading.

I try Firefox

But nothing

If your download gets stuck, try using curl or wget with resume options, e.g.
( If using windows - there's windows versions of these utilities, or you can try any number of download helping things; beware that a lot of them are associated with ad/malware :| Alternatively, try a browser like FireFox which has resume download bits built-in )

Can you downloaded the image or not?
Incan not

but the titan is pulling 1250 watts or some such the KNC Jupiter pulls what around 725 watts so myself I think because KNC originally said
the Titan would be 100mh and then 250mh ....I would guess (imho) that they designed the board for a 250mh miner..thus it is ALREADY
overclocked as much as possible (and also the need for y cables over original design seems to show that to me also)

this is again imho why the dies are so flaky and such over 300mh ..the whole kit and kaboodle was only made for a maxed out 250mh device
again imho ....getting 300mh is better then expected getting 350 mh is an over clocked dream when you look at the design

anyway my take/suppositions ..not that I know wtf I'm talking about.....that and they wanted only a 3 month warrenty it may be a guess
on my part but I bet there is some truth in there

i can not downloaded hole image file

why???


crach at 1gb

you are wrong about erricson

jupiter november batc which
is best at overclocking

had the same vrm that titan had
low version

and overclocking is best

Yea....I assume the dead dies are 1 to a cube and/or you could not get an RMA from KNC for such? (or other reasons) wish you luck not brave enough
to muck with cubes at this point

I would love to waste a cube to try this but again 2 dead dies and 1 cube set down not so much



As to the sharing of a FIX shooting off tangent here a bit ...the stuff below has come up this summer and seems to have been helpful and worked out
small issues that they may be..but anyway in case it helps someone (note the fans the fans I use because in a basement house has no a/c have been great)

One a side note for those who may want to try some stuff on their Titans I did set one cube back from 325 adv setting to 312.5 setting  due to HEAT issues summer here
and the new found STABILITY of such THE DANG UNITS STILL managed to GO BACK to the (I swear on the dime) my previous and now current stable status before the downsize of that
other cube (not one of the dead dies ones) to 312.5......so still getting 650.1mh out of the two titan(s) even after setting on adv settings the 1 cube
 2 dies from 325 setting to 300mh ...go figure??? So some of this tweaking due to the heat on the dies (again summer) can help quite a bit for stability and
you may not lose much if anything in mh it seems

WHAT KIND OF WITCHERY IS THIS!!!







I assume from the previous posts it has to do with the maxed out VRM's people are talking about and heat etc...it was  a heat issue on that one
cube I set 2 dies back to 300mh setting ..1 die is undervolted and doing 300mh the other die i set back to 300mh is the standard stock voltage
anyway my results.

did so because summer here and heat and the cube was running 10c more then my other highest cubes in the vrm temp on adv page and getting all whobbly
on hash rate in highs and lows don't ya know

that little tweak and 10c  in heat disappeared from both die settings on that 1 cube  ...so  ...go figure ...assuming knc's adv page is telling me the straight poop

anyway just for those who may want to try this same trick due to heat issues in that it is summer in USA etc may be worth a shot

so yeah .....if it has not bricked yet...I am reluctant to try anything with these units ..my last issue a couple months ago with the Titan was only other issue was

a NO CONNECTION error on the 2 cube unit i have (the LCD said in bold letters) (6 cubes on 1 controller with 1200 corsairs and 2 cubes ..the ones with 1 bad die each on the other controller the 2 cube controller still has room for the LCD) tried everything and I did a NEW complete SD img of the 2.0 firmware on a Sandisk 8gb class 10 SD card and bingo that was the problem so the SD card was corrupt I guess....also due to heat I guess (units in basement ..with fans basement temp goes at highest to 88F mostly sits at 78F to 80F room temp)
the cubes are mostly 50c or lower mostly the 1 cube goes to 55c at 88F in basement ...on such days

I suspect more problems as my units age (orig batch nov 2013) but so far so good even with the heat (basement no a/c big ass exhaust fans)

my setup below

anyway off on a tangent but stuff for those who may have the same issues as myself with summer heat etc and above and want/need to tweak or need to move some air due to summer

anyway good to see some talk of improving the firmware on here and other stuff ...every little bit helps now that knc has abandoned us completely it seems since feb 2015
on firmware it seems ...

anyway so it goes




I've seen this this summer....it was absent this winter on my 2 cube unit (with 1 dead die in each)

so I assume this is heat related? Anyway I had this issue on my KNC Jupiter back in the day and KNC said for that unit it was a heat related
re-do for the most part..anyway with knc forums down some of that info was lost but what I was told on this kinda thing on the KNC Jupiter units

I suspect we will see more of this kinda thing as the equip ages....remember knc orig said they would only give a 3 month warranty on Titans

I guess we are beginning to see why
