Avalon 1346 Bitcoin Mining Setup Guide

Follow the below directions to setup your Avalon 1346 to mine BTC with Luxor Mining Pool. If you have any questions during the process feel free to ping us on Discord or comment below.

1) Installation 

First step is to connect a PSU (Power Supply Unit) to your Avalon 1346. You can use special PSUs that are either made specifically for Bitcoin mining or even those made for servers. Plug in all the power cables from your power supply to the power headers found at the top side of the miner. One cable for the controller and the rest for the hash boards.

Next connect a Ethernet cable to your miner and the other end to a router or switch device. Then turn on your PSU and the miner will power up.

Next get on a computer or mobile device that is connected to the same network as the miner. You will need to enter in the miner’s IP address. Since most miners now come with DHCP enabled you do not have to manually set the IP address, you just need to look at the IP table on your router or use a scanning tool. On the controller board, click the IP Report button (above). Hold it down until it beeps (about 5 seconds) and then you should be able to locate it. 

A scanning tool like AngryIP allows you to scan every device on your network and see its IP address.

After getting your miner’s IP address, you are ready for Configuration.

2) Configuration of Network Settings

First you need open a web browser and open this FMS manual once you have download the configuration tool you should see something like this.

3.) Mining Pool Setup

Unified Global Stratum Endpoint

It automatically proxies your miner's TCP connection to the nearest available region without having to think about regional settings or port numbers. Additionally, if the nearest region is temporarily down for various reasons (bugs, cloud-provider maintenance, etc) then your miner will automatically get redirected to the nearest region to prevent any loss in hashing.

Type in the pool setting as follows:

URL: stratum+tcp://btc.global.luxor.tech:700

Worker: [LuxorUsername].workername 

Workername can be anything, but avoid using symbols or special characters as it may be invalid. More on user accounts can be found here.

Password: 123

After you are ready with the pool settings, press Save&Apply. This saves and applies the settings and also reboots the mining process.

4.) Set up a Luxor User Accounts (Optional)
