Topic: ANTMINER U3 Discussion and Support Thread - page 68. (Read 149415 times)
This is pathetic! I can't believe Bitmain would release a product with no solid instructions or mining software to support it.
Got my pair of U3's yesterday. They are driving me nuts.
Closest I have come to getting one to run is using the old bitmain / antminer build of cgminer
but it stops with error "unrecognized command --bmsc-voltage"
if I remove the voltage setting cgminer runs but all I get is incorrect device message.
Tried latest cgminer build with every option I could think of on / off with voltage setting, without voltage setting etc. etc etc.
If anyone actually gets a U3 working please post version of software and options.
Thanks.

Engineers are looking at U3 problems tomorrow on CN time.
Not sure if this is the right thread for this anymore...

Try these:

i have had best luck with this command about 45GH/s but not even close to 63GH/s as advertised "hassle free setup" not really
cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:1 -o stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 -u user -p password --bmsc-voltage 0750 --bmsc-freq 0882
can anyone let me know how to mine with multiple u3 in the same cgminer
cgminer.exe --bmsc-options 115200:1 -o stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 -u user -p password --bmsc-voltage 0750 --bmsc-freq 0882

Best results I have had, with Bitmain provided Cgminer 4.6.1 is about 10 GHs using --bmsc-options 115200:10. Any freq setting I have tried has not improved speed, and doesn't help that I don't know the default speed that chips should be running at. I am not sure if we are doing something wrong, or these are not ready to be mined with yet. That said, I have them in hand, instock ready to sell if your willing to buy now, run later.
Got mine today. Plugged it into my machine which is currently running 2 Ant U2's with CGminer 4.4.2. I used Zadig to install the WinUSB driver for the device.
Do I need to update CGMiner or change my command line to get this to work?
UPDATE: Tried CGMiner 4.7.1 and no improvement.
Icarus detect (1:11) fialed to initialise (incorrect device?)
Is no one using else using their U3 yet?

I got mine yesterday, tried to build the CGMiner that Bitmain provides (https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer), but kept getting compilation errors on my Mac. Got it to compile on a Ubuntu 14.04 box but it couldn't find the device. I also tried various BFGMiner versions on my Mac and my Ubuntu boxes and the Mac couldn't find the device. The Ubuntu box found 2 of the 4 chips and is currently hashing at ~4gh/s.
I'm kinda at a loss.
If you run Windows you should be able to use the Bitmain version here: https://bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=007201404130633105772QFG6R2u0635
If you are on Linux or OSX you might be able to use BFGMiner but my hash rate is way lower than advertised when using BFGMiner, so I think there might need to be a adjustment made.

Will let you know when I get mine.

Is there any tutorial on how do i get these things mining. I am getting LIBUSB_ERROR_PIPE when i use the bitmain cgminer and the frequency 0D83. Can someone post a cgminer command line for U3 Miner. Thanks
So... first note, there is NO PCI-E 6 Pin on these units.
Any chance you can give us a look inside - cover off, then fan removed ?
Thanks
Sure, Ill pop one open tomorrow.
I want one.. but just 1 lol.
There are plenty of regional resellers and group buys up for the U3

Anyone have one of these yet? I may buy 1 as a talking piece. Are there any group buys or distibutors in Asia? Im on assignment here in the Philippines 
Ours arrive tomorrow according to UPS
cool. let me know how it is. Feedback is always good prior to purchasing!
