2. Veiligheidsinformatie

• Ensure the power supply unit (PSU) is connected to a stable power source.
• Do not connect more than one PSU to the same hash board to prevent potential damage and instability.
• Operate the miner within the specified temperature range of 0 °C to 40 °C.
• Houd het apparaat uit de buurt van water, vocht en een hoge luchtvochtigheid.
• Do not attempt to open or modify the miner, as this may void the warranty and pose safety risks.
• Ensure adequate ventilation around the miner to prevent overheating.

4. Installatiehandleiding

4.1 Stroomaansluiting

The AntMiner S9 requires TEN 6-pin PCI-e connectors for 12V DC input. These connectors must be supplied by a very stable power source.

1. Locate the three hash boards, each requiring three 6-pin PCI-e connectors.
2. Locate the controller board, which requires one additional 6-pin PCI-e connector.
3. Connect all TEN 6-pin PCI-e connectors from the power supply unit to the respective ports on the miner.
4. Zorg ervoor dat alle verbindingen goed vastzitten.
5. Connect the power cord from the PSU to a suitable electrical outlet.

Belangrijke opmerking:

• Bitmain recommends the APW3 power supply for 205-264V outlets. For voltages lower than 205V, use the EVGA 1600 G2.
• Power consumption figures are dependent on PSU efficiency, ambient operating temperature, and power meter accuracy.

4.2 Netwerkverbinding

The AntMiner S9 connects to your network via an Ethernet cable.

1. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the ETH port on the AntMiner S9.
2. Sluit het andere uiteinde van de Ethernetkabel aan op uw router of netwerkswitch.
3. Once connected, the miner will automatically obtain an IP address via DHCP.

5. Gebruiksaanwijzing

5.1 Toegang tot de Web Beheer Portaal

The AntMiner S9 features a built-in web management portal, eliminating the need for a separate host computer for configuration.

1. Ensure the miner is powered on and connected to your network.
2. To find the miner's IP address, you can use an IP scanner tool on your network or press the "IP Report" button on the miner. Hold the button for 5 seconds until you hear a beep. The IP address will be reported to the IP Reporter tool (available from Antminer support).
3. Open een web browser op een computer die met hetzelfde netwerk is verbonden.
4. Enter the miner's IP address into the browser's address bar and press Enter.
5. You will be prompted for login credentials. The default username and password are typically "root" and "root" (or "admin" and "admin"). Refer to the latest Antminer documentation for default credentials.
6. Once logged in, you can configure mining pool settings, monitor performance, and update firmware.

5.2 Configuring Mining Pools

Binnen de web management portal, navigate to the "Miner Configuration" or "Pool Settings" section to enter your mining pool details. You will typically need to provide:

• Zwembad URL: The address of your chosen mining pool.
• Worker Name: Your worker name, usually in the format username.workername.
• Wachtwoord: The password for your worker (often 'x' or a specific password set on the pool).

It is recommended to configure at least two mining pools (primary and backup) for continuous operation.

6. Onderhoud

• Stofverwijdering: Regularly inspect and clean the cooling fans and heat sinks to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and lead to overheating. Use compressed air for effective cleaning.
• Milieubeheersing: Maintain a stable operating environment with good airflow and within the recommended temperature range (0 °C to 40 °C).
• Firmware-updates: Periodically check the official Antminer website for firmware updates. Keeping the firmware updated can improve performance and stability.
• Controle van de stroomvoorziening: Ensure the power supply unit is functioning correctly and providing stable voltage.

7. Probleemoplossing

For more complex issues, refer to the official Antminer support resources or contact customer support.
