Thanks for the input.

Change to cgminer-dmaxl-zeus and tried manually from ssh session:
/var/www/minera/minera-bin/cgminer-dmaxl-zeus --scrypt --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB0 --url --user --pass z


USB1 and USB2 didn't do much better. Both failed to detect and killed in 20-30 seconds.

Okay. I decided to give this a try as it seemed like a better solution than running multiple instances of bf/c -gminer on my r-pi.

Have my old one but can't run them both at the same time so if we need configuration information, it may take a bit:

Original was just a regular r-pi running standard linux build and bfgminer starting with cron job (@reboot /usr/bin/screen -dmS bfg /home/pi/bfgminer/bfgminer --scrypt --url stratum+tcp://{{your_stratum_address}} --user {{your_username}} --pass {{your_password}} --zeus-cc 128 --zeus-clk 240 -S zeus:all). Worked great. Ran without any issues for months.

Wanted to add my Rockminer R-Box to the mix and, as I mentioned, didn't want to spawn another instance so thought I'd give minera a try.

Grabbed the pi image and booted up fine. Attempted (multiple different options/configs) to get it to run and continues to fail with mixed results. Using bfgminer seems to be the best but I can't get it to consistently recognize the zeus. I also don't know how to get it to do scrypt with the zeus and sha256 for the R-Box.

Don't want to put too much here as there may be a simple solution someone can point me to. I'll admit, I did NOT read all 133 pages of the thread - sorry - and searching didn't result in too much help either.

Hope someone can give me a good nudge to at least get the zeus's running.

Found another thread showing best bfg for Zeusminer was 4.0 so that's what I'm running. Been playing with MultiMiner but couldn't even get it to see the Zeus. BFG does but it's getting 98% hardware errors

Using   .\bfgminer.exe --scrypt -S zeus:\\.\COM13 --url %URL% --user %cgUSER% --pass x --set zus:chips=6 --set zus:ignore_golden_nonce=1

Any ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions? Should I just get 5.0? Are my switches wrong? Do I need to specify the COM or just let it find it and if so with what?

Oh and by the way, the COM14 is my AntMiner so still no sign of the Zeus or RockMiner

Can't attach screen shots but Device Mgr shows:
Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COM14)
Driver Date: 03/19/2014
Driver Version: 6.7.0.0

But the ZeusMiner Thunder X6 is scrypt ASIC not SHA256 right? Still need to put that in?
Thought that may be so I had already added -S zus:all which I found referenced on another thread somewhere.

Tried that and the scan hardware doesn't show it up. Was mostly asking in case anyone knew how to verify it was actually connected to the machine or did it die/have a bad cable - already tried a new cable and multiple ports
Thanks!

Having a problem getting my zeusminer to show up. Not sure if it's the miner or configs and thought I'd ask here. Also, for some reason, my rockminor r-box has dissappeared

Question on my setup. Thanks to the help on here, I now have it running and it recognizes both my cube and my rbox.

Question is about the workers. I have setup the workers in the coin config which is where I thought it was supposed to be. When I show the details for my GPU mining using scrypt, it does not show a worker at all. When I show the details for the rbox, again, there is no worker displayed. When I show the details for my cube, it shows a worker but it's not the one that I have listed for the coin that it's mining - also the cube and rbox are mining the same thing.

When I check my account online, I only see one worker and it's not the same that's displayed on MM. I'm concerned that it's actually not going where I want because I put something in wrong or is just a display issue? Is there a way to verify the settings that the associated BFG was started with (since I don't know how to customize that)?

So I guess the other way to ask this question is can I setup a specific worker for each device regardless of the coin they are mining? If so, how?

Thanks!!

Update: Managed to get the RBox working using MultiMiner. Long thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=248173. Last page has the help I got with the drivers. The same driver may help with native BFG as well.

Update: Got it working. Thanks! Did a quick test run and seems to be okay. Will adjust some settings and fire it off to see if it keeps going. Thanks again for the help!!

Hadn't done that before. Was using the zadig driver install/update method. I uninstalled the device and deleted associated driver then used your link to install the 64bit version of the SL driver. Device now shows up on COM5. Is that where it's supposed to be instead of USB?

When I tell MM to scan for new hardware it shows up along with my GPU (again for some reason). Will try to start mining here shortly and let you know.

Thanks!

Yes I did use the search hardware. When I look at it in Devices & Printers, I get "Unspecified/CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller". Looking at the details, I show
C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\winusb.sys
C:\Windows\system32\WdfCoInstaller01011.dll
C:\Windows\system32\WinUSBCoInstaller2.dll

If I launch Zadig, I see HidUsb (v6.1.7601.18199) -> WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385) as the current driver. I also have libusbK (v3.0.6.0) and libusb-win32(v1.2.6.0) as other options. Both of those show an orange arrow indicating "Driver installation may produce unwanted results".

Is there anything that needs to be put into the MM settings (i.e. in the hardware scan)?

Now I have a bigger problem, quit out to do some other troubleshooting and play a bit of Diablo and now the GPU is gone. Tried resetting and checked all the settings but no go. Guess the game messed it up??? Would hate to have to reboot everytime I took a break.

And still can't get the RBox to show up

Don't see that setting. When I put in multiple coins, both Scrypt and SHA, and set to switch based on profitability, the proxy switches to a Scrypt coin. Can't seem to find a way to tell it only pick from the SHA coins.

Okay, found the settings for finding the cube via proxy but it's now trying to mine scrypt. Is there a way to force it to only do SHA on the cube (and obviously the Rockminer when I get that going)?

Apologize up front but didn't feel like reading through 156 pages of this thread.

Trying to get my Rockminer R-Box setup and saw a thread that says MM should work great for it. Figured I'd give it a shot as I'd prefer to have 1 miner running and am currently using BFG for my ASIC Cube.

1. MM doesn't seem to see the cube I've got a bit of troubleshooting to do on my own first but thought I'd just post to see if anyone can offer any advice.
2. Any way to import the polls? I see the import menu option but I don't have a file. Currently mining on MultiPool but don't see an export there. Guess just type them all in by hand??
3. Can it run both SHA and Scrypt at the same time??
4. Problem with the Rockminer is that it is recognized in my Win7x64 box but no drivers loaded for it. Saw threads saying if using BFG for it NOT to load the zadig drivers. Which ones should I use?

That should get me started. Thanks!

Has anyone managed to get their Rockminer working with BFG? I downloaded the latest and followed a few threads on here on how to remove all the old zadig drivers. Now when I plug it in, it shows in Win7x64 in my Devices as 'CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller' but drivers are unavailable. Should I go back to using the zadig? If so, which one? Any config suggestions? You are --scan rockminer:all right?

Care to share what got it working? I still can't get the driver loaded let alone get BFG to see it. Shows up in my Devices as 'CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller' but drivers are unavailable. Should I go back to using the zadig? If so, which one? Any config suggestions? You are --scan rockminer:all right?

Thanks!

DIEMcoin,

Did you even get the drivers loaded? When I find it in my device list, it shows there is no driver and Win7 can't find one. Reading the threads here, it says not to use the zadig (sp?) driver so didn't want to try that one.

I've been trying to get mine working with BFGMiner but can't seem to get it to recognize it. Any advice? I'd prefer to use that since it's already running my Cube through there rather than having two different miners running.

How did you get it working with BFGMiner? What version? I keep getting no devices found using the --scan rockminer:all.

For S&Gs I tried using CGMiner and it seemed to work so I'm sure the R-Box isn't dead.

I followed a few threads online to completely remove the zadig drivers and associated OEM files so that now when I plug it in Win7 says it can't find a driver.

Any ideas? Thoughts? Hints? Suggestions?

Thanks!

BTW, I do have BFG working with my cube so I am fairly familiar with the configs and setup.
