On windows when bfgminer is started I get the message : NO DEVICES FOUND: Press 'M' and '+' to add

My commandline:

Code:

bfgminer.exe -S antminer:all -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u stevenf.xxxxx -p xxxx --set-device antminer:freq=0881

I did install the CP210xVCP driver for windowsand I used the Zadig tool thingy, or is this not needed?

If anyone feels like testing out the latest AntMiner U1 code, it now supports both over-clocking and running side-by-side with Block Erupters.

Code:

git clone -b feature\/antminer-u1-support https://github.com/nwoolls/bfgminer.git bfgminer-npw
cd bfgminer-npw
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Make sure you see a driver-antminer.c before compiling and a driver-antminer.o after.

Probing is done similarly to the Block Erupter:

Code:

bfgminer -S antminer:all -S erupter:all

And you can overclock using --set-device:

Code:

bfgminer --set-device antminer:freq=4F02

Windows binaries:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/z29x4n6ng510joi/bfgminer-npw-antminer.7z

Tested on Windows, OS X, and Raspberry Pi (using MinePeon)

It Works For Me™

amazing! trying it now. Cheesy

thank you!

EDIT:
all antminer, nanofury, and BE running on same instance. never thought i'd see the day. thank you! just have to wait and see if the BE get up to speed. this is great.

Are we ever going to get Drillbit support?

Yes, this is on my table. Just busy moving still, so not as much free time as usual Sad

I know the feeling Roll Eyes

Now, in which box, is the list of things, I put into boxes? Grin

Nifty, thanks! So good you implemented proper U1 support so quick.

According to the AntMiner Spec Sheet - there is no 4F02 hex code?!

I will try the good old fashioned 0981 and hope it'll work. Cheesy

I got 4F02 from here. It is supposedly the default.

I'm able to clock them up to 0981 and reach 2GH/s, but once I go to 0A81 it get funky results...ie hashrates all over the place from 400MH/s to 1.5GH/s

I'll have to try it with the cgminer build. The thing is, the cgminer build from BITMAINtech doesn't calculate and estimate hashrate like other devices. It ignores the hashrate estimate and just uses a hard-coded value. This means you cannot compare the U1 hashrate shown in bfgminer with that shown in the cgminer build from BITMAINtech. How do the accepted shares compare?

Just picked up a Bitburner Fury - how is bfg's support for these things?

There's a table of values at the end of the current BITMAINtech documentation.

What value would I need to enter for the overclocking?

freq=4F02 is this stock speed? (1.6GH/s)

What value should I need to enter for 2.0GH/s

And you can overclock using --set-device:

bfgminer --set-device antminer:freq=4F02

Sounds good!!

Thanks, that's what I would have thought, but it still didn't show with the "--help" switch. *shrug*

Sorry that's my bad. It doesn't show in --help or ./configure unfortunately. If you see the .o file compiled though you are good to go.

antminer drivers are tied to the icarus drivers, so you don't need to enable the antminer drivers separately.

Just do ./configure no need to add any enable options.

(If you manually disable icarus driver this would also disable antminer, so don't do that)

nwoolls,

Definitely appreciate your work on this, but I'm missing something. I've git cloned and git checkout'd your code and driver-antminer.c shows up, but I don't think it's getting compiled in. I tried the "--enable-antminer" and it produced the correct object file, but when I run "bfgminer --help" the antminer is not shown in the list of drivers supported and of course my ants are not recognized (no devices, same as others in this thread are getting). And I'm invoking with -S antminer:all...

I know I must be missing something basic, but haven't been able to track it down - help?

Thanks!

Any chance of a Windows binary with ANT support? Screenshot is very nice and all, but I'm loathed to run cg (with all the zdiag and WinUSB bollocks fecking up the USB drivers) to get these things working.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/z29x4n6ng510joi/bfgminer-npw-antminer.7z

If it breaks I didn't do it Grin

Code:

bfgminer -S antminer:all

Note that, like the Bitmaintech cgminer build, this won't play nice with Block Erupters for now (unless you manually specify the driver for each devices with -S antminer and -S erupter).

Thank you!

Basically I want the entire window to be a uniform black background and light grey text.

cgminer still looks like shit, if you prefer that look.
