Re: [30+PH] Kano CKPool kano.is 0.9% PPLNS US,DE,SG,JP,NL

I have my 2nd A7 online now and I've got to say, I really like the controller interface. One of my Controllers still has not arrived yet but I really like having the 2 A7's in daisy-chain also. I like the way the CGMiner Status shows each A7 separately in the Avalon Devices Status at the bottom. And I like that the two together are humming along at a 13.5TH/s clip here on the Kano pool! Cheesy

Can you elaborate on whether you expect to have improved performance with each A7 on a separate controller? Obviously it would provide some relief if a controller would go out, but other than that would it improve performance? I have two A7's on ckpool with one controller and am getting well over 12th in 18 degree C ambient room after about 18h.

I don't think you're going to see any difference in hash with a dedicated controller, but the one difference that might be significant is that, if you have a specific machine that needs a reboot, with one daisy-chained controller you have to reboot all the machines on that controller, and not just one. At least I've not been able to figure out how to do it otherwise with a couple of A6s on one controller. OTOH, this A7 has not needed a boot...and the A6s are stable as well. I moved all mine to separate controllers just on GP.

I have never used A6s but for the A7s there is a separate Reboot button for each A7 on the CGMiner Status page at the very bottom... Grin

Aha...you're right...I only have one A7, so did not see multiple "Reboot" buttons. That would solve that "issue," methinks. Different from the A6 protocol.

EDIT...and another "attaboy!" for the coder(s)...nice improvement.

Thank you all for your input. I,m going to stick with one controller for now. jfb
