What did you have your dip switches set at?
Dip #8 is ON for Corona boards and OFF for Trinity boards.

I have 70CM kynar wire on POST_OUT and a 20CM wire on CPU_RST (I cut the blue wire down) - two Trinity consoles have booted to XeLL instantly and another took just over a minute :).

I knew that the dip 8 was for coronas only. I didn't use any of the dip switches on the 1 and only console I've done so far. I know that they are intended to clean up signal but I've never seen anyone mention using them.

Yeah i haven't heard of anyone using them either, xecuter said if they were used he would have mentioned them in the install tutorial when he was asked about them. So far I've only used #8 for coronas as stated in the tutorial.

Hello all. Wanted to share the DGX setup i use that works on alot of Trinitys. So far I have used the DGX on 26 Trinity's to retrieve cpu keys and using this setup I've never had one not boot, some boot instantly, some take a few minutes but like i said they all boot. (That goes with saying this setup may not work for all Trinitys although i haven't ran into one, you might. This is what works for me) (Pictures coming soon)

What im using:
JRP/Nandx/CR v3 QSB
DGX
NANDX USB update cable to monitor COM port
Cpu_reset wire: 11cm
Post_Out wire: 90cm

For the Cpu_reset I use the black ground wire (11cm) that comes with the DGX. "Pad D" on DGX is soldered to point FT4R2 on bottom of motherboard.

For Post_Out I use a 90cm wire taken from an ethernet cable. "Pad C" is soldered to standard Post_Out point on the bottom of the motherboard with wire slack coiled around fan on top of motherboard.

All other wires are standard DGX wires and soldered to there normal points on QSB.

Hope this helps someone out.
Supper timing got my 2 trinity 2 work,,,...

I hope my experience can help others: the setup in the OP worked for me but I used a 95 cm kynar wire.

Thanks a lot for sharing madhacker83 :)
