{UPDATE}

Check our official site for the newest bitcoin miner, the most updated tutorial and amazing support! :-)






{Before Start}

  • Please prepare a ATX PSU ( >=550w and with 6pin x 2)
  • Connect the miner to the router by internet cord.
  • The default IP of the miner is “192.168.1.123”, so, plz make sure the IP your router is "192.168.1.1".
  • For miner configuration, plz use the ethernet cord to connect the miner to the same router which your PC also connected. (Your PC is just needed for miner configuration)





{PSU NEEDED}





{Setting Up the PSU}

Suppose you use a ATX Computer Power Supply as your mining PSU.

You will need 1 jumper wire.  On the PSU’s 24pin motherboard power cable, you have to cross the “Green” line and the “Black” line.
(The PSU has a computer inside and it communicates with the motherboard.  For this setup, there is no computer motherboard to connect to, so, we have to make the PSU think it’s connected to the motherboard and the PCI and PCI-Express ports are needing the +12 V power.






{NOTE}
The connection of the miner and the Raspberry Pi are a little complicated, please follow our instruction strictly.




{Raspberry Pi Connection}


Make sure the SD card inserted tightly



Connect to your router




{Miner Connection}





IMPORTANT

  • Be careful with the position of the cables !
  • The left connector of blade 2, should connect to the right connector of blade 1.
  • The right connector of blade 2, should connect to the Raspberry Pi
  • The red line of every cable, should be on right !


The red line of the cables should be at the right side
IMPORTANT
  • The red line of the cables should be at the right side !



Connect blade to the Pi
IMPORTANT
  • The red line should be on the left, close to the yellow connector


Connect PSU to the miner though 6pin

Ok now, you connected all the cables. It's time to turn the power on.




{MINING GUIDE}

  • Power on the miner.
  • Power on the Pi.
  • (MUST: first power on the miner, then the Pi. Or, the mining will not work...)
  • Open IE, and input "192.168.1.123" in the address bar. You will get the configuration page:

  • Configurate your mining pool and mining worker. IMPORTANT: plz make sure all the blank about pool and mining worker are all filled.
  • Save it. click "save".
  • configurate the network. IMPORTANT: Don't change any network setting if you are not 100% know the meaning.

  • Click "cgminer status", you will see the mining status.




{IMPORTANT NOTE}

  • Sometimes, the mining will not start automatically after power on the miner. You need go to "192.168.1.123" and start mining by click "start cgminer"

  • Sometimes, the miner may be off the mining work(the mining speed is 0 GH/s). In that case, just try to click "stop cgminer" in the page "cgminer status" and then click "start cgminer" again. It is nonsense, but it happened occasionally.
  • Sometimes, if the mining doesn't start or always keep no speed, plz try to shutdown the miner and the Pi, and then: 1. power on the miner first; 2. after about 30 seconds, power on the Pi;






{firmware upgrade}

It is not recommended to upgrade the firmware if your miner is working greeat. Do not updrade the firmware if your miner working great.

  1. Download the firmware here: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1c0eUjWs#dir/path=%2FBTCGarden
  2. And the software for firmware upgrad Win32DiskImager here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
  3. Take out the SD card of the miner and insert it to a SD card reader.
  4. Insert the SD card reader (with SD card) to the USB port of your computer.
  5. And then upgrade the SD card to the wiiBox system:

{After upgrade}
    • The default configure ip is also "192.168.1.123"
