Thank you.  I was hoping for something a little more straightforward so I could use awesomeminer to monitor the FutureBit as well as my other rigs for one consolidated view.  Maybe in a future release...

I've searched the forum, but couldn't find anything.  Is there any way to allow the miner to be monitored externally?   Something like the -api-allow switch?  If so, where and how is it done?

Do the stock PSUs work with Turbo mode?  What has everyone experience been?

Not sure I understand.  Is there an API?  Who is adding what to what?

Is there an API available so that we can monitor the miner from another system?  Awesome Miner, HiveOS, etc.   I like to see all my miners in one location.

I received my first R606 and it was DOA.  The device could be seen, but no chips could be found.  I called the vendor and they sent another one which is working great.  They didn't want the old one back, but I just can't get my head wrapped around just tossing it.  Is there someplace I can send it for repairs?

I guess what I'm saying is I want my target to be as high as possible.  Is there a harm to setting the frequency and power to it's highest setting and then backing down?  I don't want to burn anything out.  What is the highest frequency?  If I increase the power all the way and just let it autotune, will that do it?  Sorry to be so dense.

Is there a reason that I should just start at the highest power and frequency and then just back up from there?  I'm using a Bitmain power supply from my old L3 so that should have plenty of power.

I got my new R606, plugged it into my new ubuntu install on my laptop, and WHAM, running at 781GB with just the defaults.

Next question:  I believe after reading the posts that the current version of cgminer autotunes.  Does that mean I just need to increase the vCore using the buttons on the R606 to increase the rate?  Or do I need to use the settings for cgminer to set the frequency?  Or both?

I've installed ubuntu on an old laptop.  It was, as expected, a piece of cake, following the directions on page 1.  I didn't do anything else after building cgminer.

However, I get exactly the same results.  Sounds like a bad device.  I assume there isn't any additional tools I can use to see if it's something else.

Yeah, I've read the posts that Win10 sucks.  But I've also seen users with success.  So...I was hoping...Building a ubuntu Linux machine is more than I wanted to bite off but if I was so inclined, does one of the beginning posts have the complete steps to follow?  Assume I know nothing about Linux (although I have ancient experience in Unix).

To answer some of your questions anyway:

1.  I tried both using my current Power Supply which has ample bandwidth, and a left over Bitmain power supply from my L3.
2.  Will try - Just tried.  No luck
3.  Will try - Just tried.  No luck
4.  I've tried both solo.ckpool and pool.ckpool
5.  Will try - Just tried.  No luck

I guess I'm just surprised that ANY of these settings would prevent cgminer from seeing any chips.

I've looked through as many of the posts as I can, and haven't really found the information I need.  Sorry if this is redundant.

I just received my first R606.  I have a Windows 10 machine, and went through the steps to plug it in, including updating the drivers. When I start cgminer, it says it's resetting the device over and over and then fails saying that it didn't find any chips. I've tried on two different machines to ensure that it wasn't just a single machine.

Is it a bad unit?  Is there anything else I can do to check before I ask for a replacement?

Thank you.

Works.  Thank you!

I just installed version 5.2, and now everytime it starts up, it crashes.  No warning.  Just "goes away".  Help!
