Can you try to run it with two PCIe connectors per board? It would be interesting to see if it needs all three.

The miner won't operate with two PCI-e connectors per board, according to Bitmain. See this image: https://i.imgur.com/OV3f8Ql.jpg - Read point #1

Thanks for posting this, but i find Bitmain's instructions on imgur's image incomprehensible as it is a mishmash of S5+ and S7, especially point #5 where it mixes S5+ and S7 together. Also, why 16A for S7 when it is 1210W, which is 11A even at the lowest 110V. This is a question to Bitmain, of course.

I saw the same mistake (the S5+ instead of S7 mistake) as you, it seems like they through those instructions together very quickly without even proofreading.

They also claim that most residential lines supply only 10A. Huh

Here in Canada most residential 120V lines supply 15A. Hopefully they'll fix up these instructions before mass-shipping the units out.

one would sincerely hope so as it is total gibberish right now and would cause quite a few angry or anguished calls/emails if left as is.
