HOW TO ENABLE USB DEVICES FROM CGMINER?

[saucylumbo]

I am having some difficulty getting 2 new r boxes enabled with cg miner. when i open the program and go to USB management, List all known devices it sees the 2 New R boxes but they come up as inactive. There is an enable option in CGminer but it asks for the device number which is where i get stuck. If anyone could help or point me in the right direction it would be awesome. I am new to the bitcoin community and would love to learn as much as i can.

thank you in advance!

That simply mean that cgminer didn't recognize the r box. I don't know if the official cgminer had support for r box. You might want to get the cgminer from r box.

From Dogie's setup guide for the R-BOX:

Using CGMiner:

• Download the latest version of CGMiner and Zadig.
• Extract, and run the zadig application.
• Select "CP21202 USB to UART Bridge Controller" and then click "Replace Driver". You only have to do this once per computer.
• Create a new file in notepad and enter pool information as below. Save it as a .bat in the same folder as CGMiner.
• Run the bat file to start mining.

I think you might have missed the step where you install the drivers.
Best of luck!
