1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Antminer U3: Decentralization continued. Order now, Ship on Nov. 5th on: November 14, 2014, 03:01:48 PM
i have had best luck with this command about 45GH/s but not even close to 63GH/s as advertised "hassle free setup" not really
cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:1 -o stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 -u user -p password --bmsc-voltage 0750 --bmsc-freq 0882

can anyone let me know how to mine with multiple u3 in the same cgminer

Please set like this   ./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:1 --bmsc-voltage 0755 --bmsc-freq 0782
The voltage is too low, should at least 0725(turn to Readme)
For the issue about mining multiple U3 in the same cgminer, please connect the USB cable of each U3 into the same PC, or use the same USB hub, connected and run cgminer. Please noted that connection order must be - plug one side of 12V AC/DC power brick into U3, and plug the other side into AC input. Then, connect U3 and the computer via the USB line.

^^^ Thats a BITMAIN engineer.

Following the instructions provided above with a fresh compile of CGMiner from: https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer I still get an abort:


Code:

 [1]    14682 abort      ./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:1 --bmsc-voltage 0755 --bmsc-freq 0782

CGMiner then closes/crashes.

This happens on both a Ubuntu 14.04 box as well as a OSX 10.9.5 laptop.

If Bitmain can't provide software that actually works with their hardware as they claim why would I ever buy their products again?

Try a different 12v 6amp power brick.



I tired a couple and no change.

Not sure if this is the right thread for this anymore...

I got CGMiner compiling on OSX and per the suggestions above for settings ran it with:

Code:
./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:1 --bmsc-voltage 0720 --bmsc-freq 0782

And this is the output:
Code:

After a second or two this then pops up:

Code:
[1] 69172 abort ./cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:1 --bmsc-voltage 0720 --bmsc-freq 0782

Any one have any thoughts?

User and pool names have been changed.

Got mine today. Plugged it into my machine which is currently running 2 Ant U2's with CGminer 4.4.2. I used Zadig to install the WinUSB driver for the device.
Do I need to update CGMiner or change my command line to get this to work?

UPDATE: Tried CGMiner 4.7.1 and no improvement.

Icarus detect (1:11) fialed to initialise (incorrect device?)

Is no one using else using their U3 yet?

I got mine yesterday, tried to build the CGMiner that Bitmain provides (https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer), but kept getting compilation errors on my Mac. Got it to compile on a Ubuntu 14.04 box but it couldn't find the device. I also tried various BFGMiner versions on my Mac and my Ubuntu boxes and the Mac couldn't find the device. The Ubuntu box found 2 of the 4 chips and is currently hashing at ~4gh/s.

I'm kinda at a loss.
Wow, didn't realize I'd have to compile CGMiner to be able to use this product. I don't have any clue how to do that. Wish I had known that when I bought it.

If you run Windows you should be able to use the Bitmain version here: https://bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=007201404130633105772QFG6R2u0635

If you are on Linux or OSX you might be able to use BFGMiner but my hash rate is way lower than advertised when using BFGMiner, so I think there might need to be a adjustment made.
