Whoops, wasn't asking for advice on the power settings. BTW if you select any of the "Basic" settings, it auto puts those super high wattage figures in. Anyways, I'm happy with my current power to hashrate figures so not going to muck with those.

My pictures were intended to point out that I had the extranonce setting on 2 and was still seeing cgminer4.7.0 in contrast to what the previous poster mentioned. Trying to get that issue resolved.
As you have, plus adding #xnsub to the end of the URL and a restart worked for me on all miners.  i.e.
Code:
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334#xnsub

Is cgminer supposed to be upgraded automatically when the firmware is upgraded? I just performed the firmware upgrade on one of my SP20s and it still shows cgminer 4.7.0 on the dashboard page.
Try a Reboot from the miner's home page.  That's what did it (cgminer 4.8.0) for me.

I've upgraded all my SP20's to firmware 2.6.1 and have done reboots on all of them. The dashboard page still shows cgminer4.7.0 .

I'm running 2.6.9 on all mine and have the same issue, cgminer4.7.0
You will see 4.8 if you set the flag to 2, used to mine on nice/west hash with extranonce.subscribe enabled otherwise you will see 4.7 as you are.


What am I doing wrong here? Would love to get this resolved!






Multiple reboots have been performed. Thanks in advance!

your start volts are

 0.660
0.660
0.660
0.660

use 0.665 not 0.700 for max volts


more

your watts are
 1100
 1100
 1100
 1100

use
220
220
220
220

lastly what firmware are you on now?

EDIT: Taken from nicehash ASIC guide page:You can also download pre-compiled binaries for Spondoolies SP2x and SP3x with cgminer 4.8 and extranonoce.subscribe patch and replace stock Spondoolies cgminer (instructions included in README file). Please note that this cgminer is already included in latest Spondoolies SP2x and SP3x firmware!


I have the flag set to 2 for use on nicehash, but on nicehash I do not have any green checks showing it's working.
Is there something else needed to be done other than set the flag to 2 and run 2.6.9 ?

I am wondering if it would be possible to run an SP-20 with a single CX-750 with lowered voltage settings any thoughts what the settings would be or if it's feasible?

Easily.

I run two SP20s off of a single EVGA 1300G2 and get around 1.2GH/s each from them.

.63 volts to start
.661 max
units 1/3 160W max
units 2/4 180W max
Auto fan


well, it means that you are using up to 1360W on a 1300W PSU (or 1455-1496W at the wall).
This is probably OK, but I try to keep my power below 1420-1440W (on one 110-120V/15A circuit), also running two on one circuit.

I'll have to plug the kill-a-watt in again, but I didn't think it read nearly that high last time.

Just got an SP20 in from EBay, and looking forward to tinkering with this one, running it "open air", without the stock fan, and a bunch of quieter fans pointing at it.

Fun weekend project ! *crosses fingers*

they look much better  then mine do.  I will switch the one using the seasonic.

 is your tmp  the celsius reading  9c to 14 c?

yes temps are C.

as you can see, some of the sp20 perform much better then others as I let the software find the best hash for the voltage allowed in.



yes, i also find similar technique beneficial, especially if you also include auto fan.

Thanks Phil that's exactly what i was looking for should be able to run three off a single 20 amp dedicated circuit. I know it's pushing it but i'll fiddle with it and the kill-a-watt. You really have been doing great work on the SP-20's and S-5's and I greatly appreciate all you efforts on behalf of the community.

most of my sp20's are on 750's or 850's..  depending on how nice the chips are, you will get between 1150 and 1280 at ~650w

try

FAN  auto   -------- you need newer firmware like 2.6.7 or higher  if you have older firmware use 20 for the fan.

0.61  volts
0.61
0.61
0.61

0.615 max volts

130 watts
130 watts
130 watts
130 watts

should get 1025 gh at 540 watts

if it works for a few hours  you can do a bump to

0.615
0.615
0.615
0.615

0.619

135 watts
135 watt
135 watts
135 watts

if it works for a few hours you can bump again

0.626
0.626

0.631
0.631
0.631

0.636

150 watts
150 watts
150 watts
150 watts

this is 600 / .87 = 690   watts  I consider this to be iffy on a 750 watt psu.

here is my sp20 on a seasonic 750 watt plat psu  watts at wall are 606




settings  watts are 140
