Thanks to an answer from an earlier post I am now working with the pool.  I have two Bitmain Antminers attached to USB ports, but can't tell if both are mining, or if only one is.  Is there any way to tell, and if only one is recognized how can I get the other one on board too?
Any help for this perplexed noob is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

What mining software are you using?
I assume that you are talking about Antminer U1/U2s? Or is it a S1?

it says antmine usb VI2 on the bottom if that helps.  Came in pretty unmarked packaging, no instructions.  Frankly I'm glad it's going as well as it is so far.  One of them is really hot, the other one not so.  both have red lights on, but only one (the hot one) has a green flashing light too.

So what have you done to "mine"? Just plug it into a USB hub?
btw, That is a Antminer U2.

I've relised what the problem was - for some reason only one of them had the right driver installed.  I'm using bfgminer, and had to tweak the settings, but everything seems to be working now.  Thanks for your reply.  Fingers crossed the next time I contribute to the forum it's more useful.
