Overview
Thank you for choosing our products. Please read through this user manual carefully before
operation as to ensure the correct use and installation of the products, and keep the manual
properly for future reference.
Safety Regulation
Warning: In order to prevent human safety accidents, such as ore machine and power damage,
fall, electric shock and fire, please install and use the machine strictly in accordance with the
instructions. It’s prohibited to modify the ore machine and power, and replace the components
personally.
▪Don’t use the power supply beyond the rated voltage range.
▪Don’t put the ore machine in unstable places.
▪When inspecting and repairing the ore machine or the power supply, please entrust
professional personnel for the operation.
▪When abnormal phenomena of ore machine or power supply occurs, cut off the power
immediately and contact the after-sale personnel.
Hardware Connection
Connect the power supply and products as below Figs.
Power Connection
Insert the PSU into the slot as below Figs

3
Please stretch the output copper wire to connect the PSU with the miner via 8 M4*8 screws as
the below Fig.
Please insert the 6-pin wire into the matching socket.

4
Each unit is born with 2 RJ45 ports available for a daisy-chain (suggestion: better to be 12 units
at most as one group). Let’s take an example as follow, RJ45 cable relates to the switchboard at
one end while the other one linking with the first machine that goes with the second miner and
so on so forth, to form a multiple connection.

Keys and Indicator Lamps
Keys
RESET：System reset key, and system reset will not affect network series connection
FUNC：Functional keys can be used to restore the factory setting, enter the configuration
mode, and switch lighting status in operation, etc.
Indicator Lamps
➢The indicator lamp flashes in red several times after power-on
➢After device startup, the indicator lamp turns white for about three secs. During this
period, press the FUNC key, it will enter the configuration mode.
➢The indicator lamp is green under normal mining condition.
➢The indicator is yellow during system preparation.
➢The indicator lamp is red when the system is overheated.
➢During system operation, the indicator lamp turns white by FMS software or manually
pressing the FUNC key, and the lamp reset to original color after press the Key again.
Restore to factory settings: Press the FUNC function key when power on for five seconds till the
white lamp flickers that means the success., and then press the RESET or power to restart.
Work Mode
The device has two work modes: “normal mode” and “configuration mode”.
Normal Mode
In normal mining mode, the device runs in this mode most of its life cycle, which network can
use DHCP (dynamic acquisition) or static IP, and the default is set to DHCP.

6
Configuration Mode
Press the FUNC key when the lamp is white (about three secs.) after startup, and the device will
enter this mode.
In this mode, the IP address is static (address: 192.168.168.168, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0),
which can’t process the mining function. The built-in Web service of the device can be accessed
through PC browser to configure network, ore pool, password and other information.
Set PC to static IP address: 192.168.168.100 (or any other non-conflicting address with the same
segment), subnet mask: 255.255.255.0, connect to the same network with the device (under the
same exchanger or router, or directly connect PC to the device network).
1. Please right click to “open network and internet settings”;
2. Go to “change adapter options” to disable WLAN and enable Ethernet.
Then use browser to access http://192.168.168/to configure the device. (Modify static IP, etc)
After configuration, nothing will take effect unless machine rebooted. Users are free to either
click Reboot key on the left part of the interface or power off manually. Note: please do
remember to switch internet connection, otherwise there won’t be access to internet for
miners.
