for details.



Brief

ASICMiner Tube is based on the X24 open source design for BE200.



PCB File:



CAD:



Spec

Hashrate: 200-215GH/s per hashing unit in normal mode, 800-850GH/s per full set.



Power consumption: ~0.9 J/GH board-wise. Gets higher along with

ambient temperature. On-wall power consumption relies on PSU efficiency.



Size: 25cmx12cmx12cm per full set.



Weight: 5.2kg per full set.



Powering: 1-2 6pin PCI-E plugs per hashing unit.



The hashing units are driven by ethernet controllers. Each ethernet controller

can run up to 32 units.



A full device consists of:



4 hashing units

4 thermal pads (optional, on demand)

1 to 1/8 ethernet controller (multiple devices can share one controller)

1 cooling kit

1 fan



After connecting the ethernet controller to hashing units, you can

type 192.168.0.254:8000/FlashMega on your web browser to update to the

newest firmware on each hashing unit (no internet connection is needed). After that

you can type 192.168.0.254:8000 to access the configuration page.



When assembling, do not forget to insert the ivory color washer (4 per device) between

the handle and the fan when screwing the fan onto the cooling kit.

It serves the protection of the PCB when screwing.



We observed some cases that the boards are bent, detached from the heatsink due to the not using

of washers, or screwing too tight from the handle to the fan. This will cause unexpected behavior

since the wires inside boards may break, or some parts will overheat because of bad attachment to heatsinks.



How to run on pools other than ghash.io and btcguild with Raspberry PI and bfgminer



1.Modify /etc/apt/sources.list on your Raspberry PI



deb

deb-src



2.Update the aptitude package on your Raspberry PI



sudo apt-get update



3.Download bfgminer



wget



4.Uncompress



unzip bfgminer-4.7.0.zip



5.Install dependencies



sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool libncurses-dev yasm curl libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev pkg-config libudev-dev uthash-dev libusb-dev libevent-dev



6.Enter bfgminer directory



cd bfgminer-4.7.0



7.Run configuration



./configure



8.Compile bfgminer



make



9.Run bfgminer



./bfgminer -o stratum+tcp://stratum.f2pool.com:3333 -u <workername> -p 123 --stratum-port <port(3333 by default)> --set-device PXY:diff=<difficulty(16 or above recommended)>



10.Set static IP for Raspberry PI(modifying /etc/network/interfaces)

Take the IP address 192.168.0.100 as an example. Replace iface eth0 inet dhcp as:



iface eth0 inet static

address 192.168.0.100

netmask 255.255.255.0

gateway 192.168.0.1



netmask and gateway are decided by your Raspberry PI's local network settings.



11.Configure ethernet controllers



Same example as above. Modify the pool address on ethernet controller to 192.168.0.100 with port 3333.



Round 4 Sales

Full 10-devices set including:

40 Hashing Units

40 Thermal Pads (optional, on demand)

10 Cooling Kits

10 Fans

Free Assembling

7.9 BTC /set



Hashing Unit: 0.160 BTC /piece for <400 pieces

MOQ at 40 pieces. (Each unit hashes at 200-215GH/s in typical clock)



Thermal Pad: 0.007 BTC /piece. MOQ at 40 pieces.



Ethernet Controller: 0.069 BTC /piece. MOQ at 2 pieces.

For orders equal to or larger than 10 full sets (100 devices) or 400 pieces of hashing units, please contact

Phasebird or



Round 1 purchasers get a coupon of 0.05 btc per device. (0.5 btc per set, 0.0125 btc per hashing unit)



Coupon rule:



For each device purchased, you get a 0.05 btc coupon. The price of each new purchased device can only be reduced by one coupon. Coupon works not only for round 2 sales, but also all future devices that are priced at more than 0.05 btc each.



Round 2 refunds are completed.



Shipping Dates are from 22th September to 31th September .



An example of typical MOQ set:



40 hashing units

40 thermal pads (optional, on demand)

2-4 ethernet controllers

10 cooling kits

10 fans



It is highly recommended that you have one or several redundant ethernet controllers in case

that some of them are dysfunctional.



1. The miner can not directly run with f2pool. If you want to mine on f2pool, you need a PC or a raspberry PI

with a mining proxy. The ethernet controller needs to be pointed to the proxy instead of the pool.



2. We now offer the shipping of fully assembled devices. If you need them to be shipped as a whole please specify

in your order. We still prefer separate shipping though, because it will reduce the potential shipping damage significantly.



3. The ethernet controller needs a 12V 1A DC input. You could either use a separate AC/DC for it, or wire one

directly from your PSU for the hashing boards.



4. Shipping to countries outside mainland China is free.



General Policy

1. Payment before shipping. The shipping order follows the payment order.



2. No refunds after the generation of tracking numbers.



3. If the corresponding tracking number has not been generated, we provide full refund starting from 6th September.

(The nominal refund amount follows the actual payment method, for example, 1 BTC refund for 1 BTC payment, 4k

USD refund for 4k USD payment)



4. Free replacement requirements:

-- If the user changes components on the boards, we do not offer replacements.

-- We consider each hashing unit damaged only if it hashes at <180GH/s at 270MHz setting.

If there are a few dysfunctional chips, but the hashrate is still >=180GH/s at 270MHz, we do not offer replacements.

-- For other components, the requirement is that they don't function properly.



5. We offer 5% redundancy for the full set orders equal to or larger than 10 sets (100 devices), and hashing unit orders equal to or larger than 400 units. If the number of damaged units is equal to

or smaller than the redundancy number we do not offer replacements. If larger, you need to ship all damaged units back, and we

will offer the replacement units which has the number of (damaged - redundancy).



6. You pay the shipping when receiving. For orders without mainland China, the shipping fee is included in the price if hashing units

are included in your parcels.



7. All services from ASICMiner are only available to direct customers (including direct resellers). If you bought them from resellers

or any other secondary market, please contact your seller for services.



8. The official price is transparent and allows no room for any private bargains.



Purchasing Procedure

1. Contact customer service via forum, email, IM or phone.

2. Fill the order details in the form provided by the customer service. (name/address/zip code/phone/email)

3. Pay according to the Bitcoin address given by the customer service.

4. Check for the tracking number when we start shipping.

5. Ask for refunds starting from 6th September if the tracking number has not been generated at that time.



Please make sure you own the private key of your Bitcoin wallet used for payment. It will make refunding much easier.
