The Zadig is not needed. just the VCP driver and you should be good to go.

Thanks! That was the problem. Running nicely now.

Thanks, that's what I would have thought, but it still didn't show with the "--help" switch.  *shrug*

Sorry that's my bad. It doesn't show in --help or ./configure unfortunately. If you see the .o file compiled though you are good to go.

I had thought as much, and I did get the driver-antminer.o file made, BUT no joy on bfgminer recognizing my ants, using "-S antminer:all" or manually looking with M+ antminer:all during operation when it's telling me no devices found.  As far as I can tell, no errors during the compile.  I even tried with a fresh git clone and antminer feature, and of course did the autogen, configure, make steps.  I do use "strip" - could that be the problem (never has before, but you never know...)?

Hello with https://www.dropbox.com/s/z29x4n6ng510joi/bfgminer-npw-antminer.7z, and
bfgminer -S antminer:all -S erupter:all, it goes with my erupter an antminer but my nanofurys no more go why?

 with bfgminer3.9 and only -S erupter:all i see my nanofury and my erupters.

without zadig.

how my nanofury, erupters and antminers go on windows???


setup :

1* dlink 10 port usb hub  -> 2 erupters and 2 nanofurys   3.5A power
1* delock 7 port hub -> 3 antminer 3.5A power
and individual an two differnt usb ports on my pc
so i have enough power i think.

I get segmentation fault when trying to launch that bfgminer - I am on an Ubuntu x86 latest version, I've compiled hidapi myself since there wasn't any in the repositories...

Try running bfgminer under sudo permissions.

forgive my ignorance about this.

using the new build with antminer and overclocking support, i'm seeing a very high rate of hardware errors related to my nanofury. what steps would i need to take to reduce them?

 NFY 0:       |  2.38/ 2.37/ 2.32Gh/s | A: 326 R:0+2(.78%) HW:287/4.0%

I wouldn't necessarily call HW of 4% "very high" especially for a Bitfury device.  Usually Bitfury devices are fine with HW errors in the 10% or less range.

ahh, ok. it was just higher than what i've seen before as i've been running it for a while.

thank you!

Worked for me, thanks a ton NWooll! http://minepeon.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1213&start=30 describes my process for getting it going in Minepeon 2.4.3.

you need more V on the nanofury then it goes stabler,

locks to pencil Mod on nanofurys in this forum,

Hi vs3,

I'm trying to pencil mod NF1 v0.6 and I've measured R2=100 Ohm and R3=115 Ohm in 3 NF1s by digital multimeter DT830B. R3 is different from R3=2.4 kOhm you've specified in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=291456.msg3574768#msg3574768
What could be wrong here?

Taugeran also mentioned R15 and R16 in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=291456.msg3574726#msg3574726 Could you please point them on the picture as well as measurement points just to be sure that the measurements will be correct?

Thank you.

i attempted a pencil mod by using a pencil across the right side of r3 (2.4kOhm). i could not get the graphite to stick to the side and was unsuccessful in lowering the resistance (increase the voltage). the performance of my unit decreased due to comms errors with bfgminer:(bitfury_init_oldbuf [4 tries]) caused posibly damaged r3 while penciling.

the unit i tried pencil mod on lost the ability to run higher than 51 or 52 osc6 bits while the untouched unit will run at 54 bits just fine( no comm errors)

if you want to mod the voltage i would recommend purchasing some smd resistors to fit the following calculation:

V = 0.8*(R2+R3)/R3
(and factory settings are R2=100 and R3=2.4k for about 0.833V)

find value of R3(marked 242) that increases voltage to ~0.865 or your preferred target.

resistance across the right side of r3 and left side of r2 at 2k measurement setting is ~0.95 if i rememeber correctly; at work atm :/

Probing is done similarly to the Block Erupter:

Code:

bfgminer -S antminer:all -S erupter:all

And you can overclock using --set-device:

Code:

bfgminer --set-device antminer:freq=4F02

Windows binaries:

Thanks!!!
are the win binaries compiled in 32 or 64?  I should probably know the answer...
testing with 20 U1s and 1 Erupter. so far OK!
the windows binaries are missing at least the "zlib1.dll" which was easy to copy over from 32 bit 3.9.0 released version.

My pleasure and thanks for the notice on the missing DLL. I'll take care of that and update windows-build.txt as well.

The build is 32-bit as the 64-bit version has no getwork proxy support. At some point I'll try to work out the 64-bit build process for Windows.

Yes the zlib1 is missing and correct it does NOT work on the 64 bit

You are now "in charge" of the fork,  nwoolls, thankyou.

[nwoolls]

It works fine on 64-bit windows. It's just not a 64-bit application.

[Mudbankkeith]

It works fine on 64-bit windows. It's just not a 64-bit application.

It failed on my win 8.1x64 but works first time on my win 7x86  (but then win8.1x64 is a bit low on drivers for other things )

Works on x64 7 and x64 8.1 for me, once the zlib.dll is copied over.

[Codemeister]

Running the new build now. In short: awesome! Seven miners running 2,2 GH/s really stable now. Thanks again!

[chiefstank]

again, forgive my ignorance. but i want to set multiple device settings on the conf file but only one is getting loaded.

"set-device":["NFY:osc6_bits=53"],
"set-device":["antminer:freq=0981"]

how exactly should this be configured in the conf file?

thanks in advance. you all are great!

[trojanguys]

Please anyone help me understand how to use bfgminer with ant miner, i am a new to all of this and have had no success

ahh, got it. didn't know how they would be separated. once again, this thread rules.

works like a charm!
