Ok so mine has arrived. Johnny (you evil KNCMiner employee etc etc) - any tips, or even better any chance you can post a config file so I can literally plug it into clevermining at max hashrate?
Yes please plug in this exact config
{
"pools": [
{
"url": "stratum+tcp://us.clevermining.com:3333",
"user": "1JyNT79NXRzp82rEx9apVcqkwzPzz5fBEW",
"pass": "d=8192"
}
]
}
Use the editor or you can paste in the exact string into the wizard
These work too:
{
"pools": [
{
"url": "stratum+tcp://us-west.multipool.us:7777",
"user": "youruser",
"pass": "x"
}
]
}
{
"pools": [
{
"url": "stratum+tcp://US2.coinmine.pw:1111",
"user": "youruser",
"pass": diff=8192
}
]
}
Tips:
0. Don't wire the controller wires backwards, follow the pictures in the instruction manual.
1. make sure you are running latest firmware, LED on controller tells you 1.05
2. before you configure and start mining go to advanced tab, and lower mhz on all die to 200
3. set configuration and start mining, wait 20 minutes before you panic.
4. Hopefully you will be hashing at a steady 175 or so. If not you can check your die to see which ones are failing, turn those off.
5. After you get to a steady state ramp up mhz 25 at a time for each die until it gets to 325, check stability for 20 minutes on each. Some will not support 325 and your miner will jump in and out of "stopped" state
Ultimately, i had one die completely dead and three others than support 225-250
