3、Run X1 tool    

（1）running overview

You can view real-time hash rate, rejection rate, fan speed, and chip temperature

 

 

（2）information overview

You can view information such as running time, average hash rate, and miners in the mining pool that have been running

 

（3）Miner configuration

Note: This manual takes the “poolin”  as an example.

ETC mining address: stratum+tcp://etc.ss.poolin.one:443

（1）Select "Pool Configuration" and fill in the Mining Pool Information

(1-1) The "Url" in "Mining Pool 1" is filled with the ETC Poolin mining link address: stratum+tcp://etc.ss.poolin.one:443

 (1-2) "Worker" in "Pool 1" fill in "ipollomini.001"; "ipollomini" is a custom "sub-account" in the corresponding Mining Pool account; the number suffixed with ".001" is the number used to distinguish the server;).

Note: For customization such as numbers or letter combinations, use English periods to separate them, please only modify the corresponding characters, and do not increase or decrease spaces and punctuation)

 

 

 

（4）Fan configuration

The default is auto control, which automatically adjusts the temperature based on the chip temperature

 

（5）System

Click restart to restore the server to its factory settings

 

Note:  After the device is powered off and restarted, please reopen the X1 tool to connect the device with PC.

 

Ⅳ. Orange Pi Usage and Settings

  • Connect Orange Pi

(1) Insert SD card into Orange Pi

       

(2) Connect the power adapter and network cable

(3) Connect USB port for USB-Type B cable

 

  • Obtain IP address

     After the Orange Pi is powered on and connected to the network, it begins to run. Wait for 3-5 minutes to locate the IP address of the Orange Pi. Open the router back end or use the showIP software to find the server IP. The showIP software method is as follows:

(1) Download software: https://ipollo.com/pages/tool

(2) Double click on 'showIP' to open the software;

(3) Feedback server IP information on the PC, as shown in the following figure:

 

Note: The server and PC must be in the same network segment, otherwise IP information feedback from the server cannot be received.

 

  • Set Orange Pi

Enter the server management background

   (1) After finding the IP address of the server, enter the obtained IP address in the browser (preferably Google), press “Enter” to enter the server login interface, and enter the default administrator account and password: root 

 

（2）Press “Login”to enter the server management background as follows:

 

 

（3）Server Settings

Click on the "Miner Configuration" interface of "Configuration" to set up "Mining Pool" and "Network"

 

 

(3.1) Filling out the information of the mining pool

Explanation: This manual takes "Poolin" mining pool as an example, and ETHW mining address is stratum+tcp://ethw.ss.poolin.one:443

  1. Select “Miner configuration”and fill in the miningpool information
  2. The "Url" in "Mining Pool 1" is filled in as ETHW Poolinmining link address: stratum+ tcp://ethw.ss.poolin.one:443
  3. Fill in "ipollomini. 001" for "Miner" in "Worker1" ("ipollomini" is the customized "sub account" in the corresponding mining pool account; the suffix ". 001" is the number used to distinguish servers).

Note: Customization such as number or letter combinations should be separated by English periods, and only the corresponding characters should be modified. Do not add or subtract spaces or punctuation.

 

Note: To prevent "Mining Pool 1" from being disconnected and causing the server to not work, it is recommended to set "Mining Pool 2" and "Mining Pool 3" simultaneously, which can ensure that in the event of "Mining Pool 1" being disconnected, the system will automatically switch to "Mining Pool 2" or "Mining Pool 3" for normal operation.

 

(3.2) Network Settings

  1. Select “Miner Configuration,”find network configuration and fill in the network information:

 

  1. Select either "DHCP" or "Static" in the "Protocol" column (optional);
  • Select "DHCP"(dynamic)status: Server automatically obtains IP address

 

After setting up, click "Save and Apply", the system will save and automatically restart to take effect, and the server will start running normally

Then the server configuration is complete. Congratulations on becoming a miner.

  • Select the "Static" status

 

Enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS server in the following four boxes, and then click "Save and Apply"

 

Ⅴ. Orange Pi firmware update
