sorry try with this or try to find the command to start cgminer in whatever os ur using as he one i posted was for windows try it without the .exe

cgminer --bmsc-options 115200:1 -o stratum+tcp://freicoin.us:4334 -u username -p password --bmsc-freq 0C82 --bmsc-voltage 0800

Hey sorry, I tried that but nothing happens. just that same window as before. Not sure how to find the command to start cgminer. Might consider getting a raspberry pi to run it on. Thanks

Hey there. I am new to bitcoin mining and just doing it for a bit of fun and to learn. I have an antimatter u3 running my mac with no problems for last couple days. The hash rate is 37.23 Gh/s average for that length of time. I was hoping someone can tell me how to clock it or make it run faster. I am aware i have to change a command but not sure how to do it on a mac. Looking forward to some info. Thanks

Can you tell us more about your setup? Mac is one system I have not used U3 on. I have done Windows and Linux. I would assume your using cgminer and varibles are the same to change.

Long term I suggest getting a R1 and using CrazyGuy's custom firmware.

Where can we get the custom firmware from? is there a github repository?

It's in the R1 thread in hardware. CrazyGuy released it public after he sold first batch (was awsome of him). With it the R1 can reset zombie's which is great for those who use multiple. Also you have bitmain GUI that is super easy to use.

I have used it with 3 U3's at one time and it worked great. Also with it being a R1 it's a pretty low power controller, so save money over time.

Yeah, i am using cgminer 4.9.2. and the miner is running off an ATX PSU on 6 pin pic-e cable. OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 I just plugged in and connected to server and it started mining so it must be standard settings. When it is mining the is a terminal window on the task bar of mac and when you right click it there is an option " new command " tho any commands i have got from forums that people claim to over clock do not work unless i am typing them wrong. Apart from that it is mining away with no problems atm.
