Thanks for the response.

I checked it out, it seems to be just hardware schematics, how to use zadig, and info about their GUI for the S2 miner. I didn't see anything about how to talk to their board using their USB connection (other than how to use CGMiner).

Is it possible there is a standard command set to communicate to ASIC miners that is documented somewhere else?

Here's an old version of their cgminer mod: https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer

Maybe there will be something useful in the code?

I'm writing a C program to control a Bitmain Antminer U2 through the USB port directly (not through CGMiner or BFGMiner, etc.), but I can't find any documentation of all possible commands that can be sent/received from this device. I've tried to follow through CGMiner and BFGMiner source code, and I see the COM port API calls, but it would be much easier to have some doc or a user manual (maybe from Antminer) just to list the syntax of all commands.

I'd appreciate if anyone knows where this exists (while I still have some hair left)?

Thanks

You've had a look at their git? https://github.com/AntMiner/AntGen1
