Title: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: advs108 on June 19, 2013, 04:57:26 PM Hello,
I just received my fpga Lancelot. Waiting for my Raspberry to arrive, I wanted to test the card on window 7. Installed the drivers with no problem, but it seems that I have a Comms error. Please have a look at this screen capture : http://screencast.com/t/jnHzPbMthVde Anybody have an idea on how to fix that problem ? Thank you for your help Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: Zanatos666 on June 19, 2013, 05:04:17 PM Upgrade your cgminer. They have rewritten the way USB works with Icarus units https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.msg2507736#msg2507736
Also, if you are not using a powered USB hub, you should. If that does not work, try using BFGminer. Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: mazedk on June 19, 2013, 06:18:56 PM My Lancelot is running nicely on 3.1.1
I just grabbed the driver of cardreaderfactory's website and it Works perfectly. Try bitminter client and see if that Works for you. Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please.

Right, but there is a way that cgminer talks to the device through winusb. But if you can get a hold of a powered hub, that would probably solve the problem.

Still not working... did I miss something ? Here's what I did with Zadig : http://screencast.com/t/ZQNT7sJsnJw here's the screen capture of cgminer : http://screencast.com/t/xDgkUfkG Any Ideas ? Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: advs108 on June 20, 2013, 09:30:54 AM I'm trying now with bfgminer
Here's the comand line I'm using : bfgminer -G -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u advs108_1 -p 123 and the error message is "All devices disabled, cannot mine!" How can I tell bfgminer to mine on the lancelot, on COM6 ? the bfg version is 3.1.0-win64 Thank you for your help ! Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: -ck on June 20, 2013, 09:35:32 AM Hello Error -1 is an I/O error. There's likely a problem somewhere in your cables, connections or USB ports.Still not working... did I miss something ?

Yes, I agree, this is definitively that kind of problem... I just don't know how to fix it. I changed cable, installed all drivers... But... :'( Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please.

To run my new lancelot with CGMiner. With the sources to get CGminer I have it plugged into my laptop couldn't get it to work on bitminter? I really don't know what I'm doing...help Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: mazedk on June 25, 2013, 08:25:06 PM Check that you don't have a device using the unit. And make sure it's connected with com6 if that's what you are using in cgminer. You should be able to find the com port in your device manager..
Also, did you launch with admin privileges? Title: Re: Need your help with a Lancelot FPGA, please. Post by: Tsunamirain on June 25, 2013, 08:48:55 PM It was a driver issue. Running smooth now I need to set up a back up pool!
