Setup Guide
1. Unpacking and Placement
Carefully remove the Antminer S19 from its packaging. Place the unit on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure there is at least 20 cm of clear space around all air intake and exhaust vents to allow for proper airflow and heat dissipation.

2. Power Connection
Connect the power cables from the integrated power supply unit to a compatible 200-240V AC power outlet. Ensure the power source is capable of supplying 3250W continuously. Use only power cables rated for the required voltage and current.
3. Network Connection
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port on the Antminer S19 and the other end to your network router or switch. A stable internet connection is crucial for mining operations.

Operating Instructions
1. Initial Configuration
After connecting power and network, power on the miner. Allow a few minutes for the system to boot up. The status indicator lights on the control board will provide feedback on the boot process.
2. Web Interface Access
- Find IP Address: Use an IP scanner tool (e.g., Advanced IP Scanner, Angry IP Scanner) on a computer connected to the same network to discover the miner's IP address.
- Access Interface: Open a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) and enter the miner's IP address into the address bar.
- Login: You will be prompted for a username and password. Refer to the official Antminer documentation for default credentials (commonly 'root' for both username and password). Change default credentials immediately after initial login for security.
3. Mining Pool Configuration
Once logged into the web interface:
- Navigate to the 'Miner Configuration' or 'Settings' section.
- Enter the URL(s) of your chosen mining pool(s). It is recommended to configure at least two pools for redundancy.
- Input your worker name (usually your wallet address followed by a worker identifier, e.g.,
wallet_address.worker1). - Enter the password for your worker (often 'x' or a specific password set on the pool).
- Save the changes. The miner will restart its hashing process with the new settings.
4. Starting Operation
After saving the mining pool configuration, the Antminer S19 will automatically begin hashing. Monitor the 'Miner Status' page in the web interface to confirm that the hash boards are operating correctly and submitting shares to your configured mining pool.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining optimal performance and preventing overheating. At least once every 1-3 months, power down the miner and disconnect it from the power source. Use compressed air to gently remove dust accumulation from the cooling fans, heatsinks, and internal components. Do not use liquids for cleaning.
2. Environmental Control
Continuously monitor the ambient temperature and humidity of the operating environment. Ensure temperatures remain within the 0-45°C range. High humidity can lead to corrosion, while excessive dryness can increase static electricity risks. Proper ventilation is key to maintaining these conditions.
3. Firmware Updates
Periodically check the official BITMAIN website for the latest firmware updates for your Antminer S19. Firmware updates can improve performance, enhance security, or fix bugs. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions precisely when performing firmware updates to avoid bricking the device.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues and Solutions
- No Power:
- Verify power cable connections at both the miner and the wall outlet.
- Check the power outlet with another device to ensure it is functional.
- Confirm the circuit breaker has not tripped.
- Ensure the power supply is receiving the correct 200-240V input.
- No Network Connection:
- Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the miner and the router/switch.
- Check the network status lights on the miner and your router/switch.
- Restart your router/switch.
- Verify the miner's IP address and ensure there are no IP conflicts on your network.
- Low Hash Rate or No Hashing:
- Review your mining pool configuration in the web interface for correct pool URL, worker name, and password.
- Check the 'Miner Status' page to see if all hash boards are detected and operating.
- Ensure the miner is not overheating; improve ventilation if necessary.
- Confirm your internet connection is stable and has sufficient bandwidth.
- Overheating:
- Increase airflow around the miner.
- Reduce the ambient room temperature.
- Clean dust from the fans and heatsinks.
