That's interesting, somehow bfgminer 3.9.0 or btcguild pool switched from worker's diff 8 to diff 16 with olddifficulty rejection message

Code:

btw, 6NFY+2BPM around 20GH/s. Worker's diff is set to 8 instead 16 intentionally in btcguild worker's properties.
After restart it happened again without olddifficulty rejection message:

Expected. There is a workaround for very old (no longer a problem?) pools that treated difficulty wrong. This results in invalid shares being submitted unnecessarily, but is otherwise harmless.

Running bfg with 5 Antminers U1 now. Waiting for the miners to reach the right speed Wink

Awesome work so far.

They do take a while to come up to speed.

Make sure you used Zadig to install the driver for the IceFurys. It is needed for those.

It shouldn't be... Icefury is just a nanofury, right? Those are HID...

Too true - my bad. I just double-checked my IceFurys and they are using the HidUsb driver, not WinUSB.

Fair point. They are coming up as HID devices in Windows, but Nate's bfg isn't picking them up. I didn't remember having to do the zdiag dance before to get them going on Windows.

Yeah, they're just a Nanofury.

Only thing I can note is that your build doesn't pick up my two IceFurys. It works fine with the 10 Antminers, two Jalapenos and 3 proxies. Doesn't even pick up the NFYs if I specify them in the command line.

Make sure you used Zadig to install the driver for the IceFurys. It is needed for those. I am using that exact same Windows build to run IceFurys and Antminers without issue.

Ah, OK. I just moved the IceFurys to my BBB, so no big fuss.

Any update on overclocking the Antminer U1?

Just going to need time. It's not difficult, just a lot on my plate (I have a day job and another side job outside of all this Bitcoin bidness Grin

)

I also want to try to figure out how to properly ID these buggers so I can tell them from BEs.

The good news is I got in touch with Bitmaintech and they are providing me with info to keep development going so that should be a great help.

Cool.

Been running about 12 hours now solid with your Windows build.

If it breaks I didn't do it Grin

You, sir, are a legend. Just spent hours messing around with my ant miner U1 that arrived this morning, with all the zadig hoo-ha and so on - couldn't get it to run reliably, it would detect the U1 maybe 1 time in 10 and wasn't consistent or predictable in that respect, plus is brain damaged in terms of remote access - I run a little setup with a php script that accesses the miners remotely so I can see if they're happy without having to check each machine, and while it's possible to get some remote info out of it, it's not much.

Downloaded and ran your version, once I'd removed the zadig-installed drivers, fired right up straight away! Thanks. Grin

Edit: I've just checked out MultiMiner, which looks great, so I guess that's this afternoon spoken for. Thanks again.

How did you remove the stinkin' zadig drivers?

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).

Hi nwoolls

11 antminers now happy on BFG

A 2nd instance of miner is easy with 10 port switchable hubs. Cool

Running at 18Gh on 5 sec 16.5Gh at the pool power is 27.3w and steady

I just need to look at the overclocking now Roll Eyes

Excellent.

I noticed my BEs are running at less than 50 Mhash, I assume that is due to the Antminer configuration being pushed down on them despite of me running the following?

bfgminer.exe -Q 8 -L log.txt -S antminer:all -S erupter:all

Even though I only have two Antminers, I am mining at a slightly higher rate than with all the BEs (with 2 BEs removed to make room on one of the hubs)

Thank you! there they roll. Over 12Gh/s with stock speed and _only_ 20watts total. This would have been killer 6 months ago Roll Eyes

Next overcloking. No HW errors at @15mins

Bitmain will be making tons of BTCBTC and $$$ ripping off ppl with these

but hey it's fun and everybody wants in.
