Can anyone tell me how to use the unsafe:N command?

I have some of the small rockminers running at 290 along with some of the 110 GH units. Due to the 290 clockspeed set they are only hashing around 81 each. When I try to go in and adjust them up to 350 it returns the dangerous clockspeed and use the unsafe:N to force.

Thanks.
--set rkm:clock=unsafe:350

You the man!

Stepped back to 4.5.0 and it has no problems at all.

Try disabling the Coinbase check by appending /#skipcbcheck to the pool URL.

Add /#skipcbcheck at the end of the pool URL's like this?

   stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:8888/#skipcbcheck

Exactly.

Thanks!

I'll have to keep an eye on it. It does it at random times.

Crap, now I'm getting a ton of this:



It jumps around all of the different miners.

I switched back to 4.5.0 for now. Might try 4.6.0 or 4.7.0 later. 4.8.0 and 4.9.0 give the errors shown for some reason. None of them on 4.5.

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)
FYI the latest version didn't fix the Monarch errors. Luke, if you're interested I'll do a quick post of what I found. I did have a hack where it tries to do an intelligent match on the replies back to BFGMiner to compare to the queue to find dropped bytes, but it's spectacularly ugly and that 4.2 custom code doesn't do that from what I can tell.

I think they just went back to single-reply responses and single work loads. Finding exactly where these happen in the BFL code is tough for me.

Have a good recommendation for one that will run on windows?

Wireshark works great. At least it does on 2008 R2 and 7.  I haven't tried it on 8.x or 2012 R?.

Any idea what I can do to stop this from happening? The pools seem to be up just fine.


Any chance you can run a packet sniffer and see whats going on between the pool and miner?

Have a good recommendation for one that will run on windows?

Did they not want to pay you to maintain a working version for the Titan, which is not running well and they can't seem to tell us why?
They didn't ask, and I didn't ask.

They should have.

I understand and appreciate that you are not supporting that version. Could you chime in on if you think the version they have running is causing issues concerning coins with fast blocks and fast diff changes? or even merge mining seems to slow down the hashrate.
No idea, the whole "not supporting" is basically just making a note that I don't have one, don't know the platform at all, and cannot answer questions about it at all - it's not that I don't want to, just that I don't have anything to go on.
But maybe KnCMiner's engineers or other users can answer your questions here or elsewhere Smiley

Fair enough.

Unfortunately KNC doens't look like they know or want to fix the issue. They prefer to say that pools are the big problem. However this miner cannot mine anything other then straight LTC(no merge mine) with stability. Even just mining LTC gives the above mentioned errors.

NEW VERSION 4.9.0, OCTOBER 5 2014

Please note that the new Titan driver is maintained by KnCMiner, and neither nwoolls nor myself can provide support for it.

Human readable changelog:
  • titan: Driver for KnCMiner's scrypt ASIC machine.

Full changelog:
  • Upgraded Windows libraries:
    • libcurl from 7.37.0 to 7.38.0

Also all these errors? Thanks for any help you wish to provide or insight on why KNC if screwing up Smiley

What is the proper format to add chip count per Zeus device? I already have clock set, but how do I set chip count per device?


This is what I have so far. My usb0 is a 128 chip and the usb1 is a 64 chip
--set zus@/dev/ttyUSB0:clock=328 --set zus@/dev/ttyUSB1:clock=328

If both clocks are the same you do not need to set them individually:

Code:
--set zus:clock=328 --set zus@/dev/ttyUSB0:chips=128 --set zus@/dev/ttyUSB1:chips=64
