Hmm, I'm not sure what spec of Avalon you have.

I do recall having a 2 module 220GH/s Avalon that was 55nm and it was set to 16 miners and frequency of (I think) either 1300 or 1450.

I also had a lot of hassle setting it up. so much so that I ended up running it using a Raspberry pi loaded with Minera and compiling cgminer using --enable-Avalon.
This worked a treat until the power supply went pop.
Then I just ran 1 module on a smaller psu and set the miner count to 8 and the frequency to 1200 which gave me about 95G.


Did you commect the Raspbery to the miner USB? do you think it will work with Minepeon, I have one running on Raspbery Pi+
I will also try later with  55nm 16 / 1300

Yes, plugged RPI into USB. There is a jumper just behind the usb socket that you can remove to stop it supplying power through the usb.

I did try Minepeon but could not get it to work properly with cgminer. I used Minera in the end and compiled cgminer with the --enable-Avalon and replaced the original cgminer. I passed manual options to start cgminer in Minera using --avalon-options 115200:8:10:D:1200:55 --avalon-cutoff 70 --avalon-temp 60. (running just one module)

If you like I can give you the commands to use to compile and setup cgminer. You can pm me if you wish.

You could even connect a pc/laptop with cgminer and test it that way. I had a spare PI so used that.

Try testing one module and work from there.

Hope some of this helps.

Dude, you should find out your avalon type first. Is it 55nm or 110nm. Trial & error will only damage your miner. Check the asic type.
The link on your OP is 110nm, which is wrong thread i guess.

How do I find out what it is (55nm or 110nm)?

Check on the top side of the asics.

110nm is A3256
