When you set the target to 460MHz as you have done, each miner needs more than 11W as it mentions on the gekko.php page. https://kano.is/gekko.php#resLooks like you don't have anywhere near that power per miner or your power source is no good. (Edit: or the computer is way too slow.) With that many CompacF miners you'd need at least one powered hub like the Gekko one. Unrelated to your issue: Of course showing A: at the top helps knowing how long you've run it. Usually it takes an hour or so to get a good idea of how it's performing. |

Well, the API output will tell you that.
Also on Linux or Mac running 'top' in a terminal will tell you that also.
On Mac the docs mentions something to try.

sorry im a complete noob. can you explain how and were to put commands also for some reason i cannot vet the change frequency and tuning commands to work. any ideas. this is what iv have so far : cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://de.ckpool.org:3333 -u <wallet adress> -p x --gekko-compacf-detect --gekko-compacf-freq 500 |

In the Terminal. https://support.apple.com/guide/terminal/welcome/macalso for some reason i cannot vet the change frequency and tuning commands to work. any ideas. this is what iv have so far :
cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://de.ckpool.org:3333 -u <wallet adress> -p x --gekko-compacf-detect --gekko-compacf-freq 500
You are following the wrong section of the guide. .exe is always a Windows binary. You should neither download, nor try to run, a Windows binary on Mac, it won't work. Download and run the right binary for your OS and it should be good. Everything is explained here: https://kano.is/gekko.php |

The build steps linked in https://kano.is/gekko.php explain how to build cgminer on a Mac OSX: https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer/blob/master/mac-build.txtAnd yes all commands are run in a Terminal |

Ah, OK, yes I think the windows binary might? actually work on an Intel MacOS, but that would also run way too slow. Only inside a Windows VM or maybe using Wine. But I don't see why anyone would want to do that, since there are macOS build instructions available. Regarding speed: I've ran Compac F's from cgminer in a VM and it was fine. I like to use VMs when experimenting with a new codebase to get an understanding of it & that prevents clutter on my host when installing different compilers, dependencies and whatnot. USB passthrough has come a long way!  |

Hello, I received a compac f from gekkoscience but it does not work, even after installing the correct drivers and the correct cgminer, it is marked as inactive, in the device manager it is displayed as FT232EX could you tell me enlighten how to repair or diagnose it please?
Thanks very much

Probably best to contact your reseller for support first. If they are unable or unwilling, you could get help here. |

Are you using Windoze? If so use Zadig to install the WinUSB driver. |
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.

I run these with no issues on the latest version of Kano's cgminer. cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u BTC.WORKERNAME -p x --gekko-start-freq 350 --gekko-compacf-freq 580 --gekko-mine2 --gekko-tune2 60 --suggest-diff 3000 What do you have your voltage set to? |

It's going to depend somewhat on the speed you run them at, but users here have reported up to 14 sticks to a Pi.

I see anywhere between 3.5A per port and up to 4.1A draw per port depending on the stick. does anyone know the total amount of compac F able to run properly off one Raspberry pie 4?
I have confirmed that you can run up to 15 sticks on a Pi4. The 8GB Pi4 version that is. Anymore than that and it won't see any additional devices (or at least in my case). |

Do you set the voltage using a amp meter in between the hub and stick? |
