=> Bitcoin Blade Erupter Eligius Setup
Bitcoin Blade Erupter Eligius SetupPower BE SURE to conect the polarity correctly... the +/- indicators are on the back of the blade's board. You will be using 12V from your power supply. That means the YELLOW and BLACK wires are being used on the connectors. Cooling Blade Erupters do not come with fans... so BE SURE to provide a very good cooling solution. Otherwise, your blade will self-destruct from over heating. I use a small 6-Inch 2-Speed Fan  running on High, to cool my Blades.Network Connection Blade Erupters have a single ethernet port for network connectivity. I use a wireless connection to my blades through a NETGEAR WGPS606 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server with 4-port Switch  . I configured
the WGPS606
on my wireless network and plugged ethernet cables into the
back ports to my Blades.Eligius Setup I am running a Stratum Proxy server for my Blade Erupters. The Stratum Proxy runs on a PC at 192.168.1.88 on my network. Just Google "Stratum Proxy download" and you can download a copy (from bitcoin.cz) to run on your network. If you don't want to run Stratum, you can run GBT protocol on the Eligius pool. NOTE: Stratum is much faster and more efficient than GBT, so definitely run Stratum if you can. On Stratum proxy, your Blade Erupters should see efficiencies in the upper 90s percent range. Below are the Eligius settings that run on my Blade Erupters. Notice that I have my 192.168.1.88 stratum proxy settings as the primary and gbt.mining.eligius.st as the secondary settings for the server addresses. That is for failover protection... if Stratum goes down, then GBT will take over. NOTE: sometimes when trying to change settings in the blades in Internet Explorer, after clicking the Update/Restart button, you may need to click your browers refresh button a few times to get the settings to save. I do not have this issue when using Google Chrome. Screen of one of my Blade Erupters, showing the Eligius setup settings.
