Algorithmically placed FPGA miner: 255MH/s/chip, supports all known boards

ok, got it compiled myself using "BlueJ" 

I got some progess on cairnsmore1 without a special jtag cable (just the shipped usb-cable), but not really far...

@Eldentyrell: Please correct the spelling of "cairnsmore" in tml-0.999 it is wrong spelled "carinsmore". Thanks! 

If I start it without "preprogramming" I got this:
...

If someone needs a already patched urjtag binary with the needed dll's or the corrected tml-0.999w.jar to play with, I can package it up for download. Eldentyrell, if this is problematic for you I will remove the tml download, but please correct the windows version tml-0.999w.jar, see the error I described in the other post.

I need some sleep now...

LOL this woulda saved me some time. Cross compiling and patching in cygwin is kind of a pain.

Here is my patched urjtag -> patched urjtag incl. dll's

You have to install first the official 0.10 urjtag from the webside, then unpack my archive and copy over all files. Please make sure the PATH Variable contains the installation directory of urjtag.

To test it, open a cmd and type jtag <return>
Then type "cable FT2232" in the jtag prompt, now follow the discription on the tml webside to test idcode etc.

If this is working type "q" to quit the jtag programm, then you can start tml-0.999.jar and play with it.

EDIT:
This binary has been compiled to work with cairnsmore1, for other applications I recommend the original binary!

[ebereon]

Yeah, that sounds right.  If you get past the "magic number check" but get read-acknowledgement errors later on, it means that there is some flaky hardware somewhere on the communication path.  Try slowing down the JTAG clock to something really slow like 500khz.

Ok, how do I slowing down the JTAG clock? In the source code or is there a hidden <properties> option?

hmmm I flashed the fpgas with davis bitstream using enterpoint tools ok but when I run java -jar tml-0.999w.jar urjtag:FT2232 http://user:pass@gamerchicks.org:8337/ I still get

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: garbled output from urjtag; did

(and yes urjtag is working with the tdo command)

You need to use the windows version of tml. there is a tml-0.999w.jar posted from eldentyrell yesterday

Ok sorry, I compiled it myself and didn't tested the "fixed" .jar from eldentyrell. I will upload my self compiled jar in a sec.

Temporary download: tml-0.999mod for windows

I downloaded bluej and fixed the one line of code hah now it runs but I get

@eldentyrell

Please correct line 77 in UrJtag.java:

Code:

        if (i != '\r') i = br.read();

but it should be:

Code:

        if (i == '\r') i = br.read();

I programmed only fpga3 (0,1 and 2 is twin_test setting). I have controller version 1.2.

Dip settings:
SW1/SW6: all on
SW2: all on
SW3: 12 off, 34 on
SW4: 12 off, 34 on
SW5: all on <- davis bitstream

hmmm in your log your at least getting a usercode. I'm erroring out before that.

also I am using those same switch settings and I updated the controller to 1.2

[ebereon]

strange...

what command line you are using?

[Keninishna]

strange...

what command line you are using?

java -jar tml-0.999mod.jar urjtag:FT2232 http://blah:blah@pool.com:8337

[ebereon]

ok, same what i use and it's working here until i get the errors.

And my unit is only working with the shipping bitstream, with twin_test it is not working, so my unit is a faulty one.

Your unit is working ok with twin_test etc.?

working fine with twin test

[ebereon]

hmm... it's now hard for me to help you futher...

But, you can open a cmd and you can start jtag in any directory? and if yes you can type "tdo" after connecting to the cable and get a "0" or "1" back?

[gigantic]

Sub.

[pieppiep]

Sub.

You can do that with the watch button.

yup. Maybe ET will know better, I'm not too good at debugging java.

*smacks forehead*

That's what I get for being in a hurry.

I have fixed it and re-uploaded tml-0.999w.jar.  Here is the md5 for the new jar file:


MD5 (tml-0.999w.jar) = 7fcbd56ceb48de27be634c9f091492fb
