D3 set up help

[kevin stout]

curretly trying to set up a D3 miner.

Having trouble getting it to power on.

Bought a PSU off eBay, not a bitmain one.

Bought a volt converter for 220 to 120.

Still no power, maybe PSU is bad, but maybe I’m missing a step.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated

Thanks

What PSU are you using?

Silly question, but when you turn it on without connecting it to the D3, does the fan run and do you feel airflow going through it?

Also, is that a converter from 220 to 120 (i think you meant 110)? Or the other way around? Your wording was confusing, but if its the former, then you don't need a converter at all.

I have 110 - 220 converter.

just got it to kick on, after switching the back of the converter to 220, but then the converter shut off. I believe it blew a fuse. Should be easy to replace. Ill try again tomorrow.

Good evening. Experimented with firmware to D3.
Tried the Blissz firmware - garbage - the hash-rate became less,
why people put - I do not understand.
