    will work on it in a few days. i moved to windows because of lockups/freezes in bfg on wheezy due to not being able to initialize/ MCP2210_SPI_Transfer temp. rejected (XX bytes remaining)

    I appreciate your efforts but I'll reiterate, since it appears to be a windows only device, I'm willing to accept offers to purchase my devices.

    My apologies, not sure what FUD is but only stated that to make sure anyone who wishes to buy it knows it appears to work best on windows.

    Our at least I've only seen threads of success on windows.

    Point taken.

    But I meant normal linux guys like me, not programers who can bend the source code to their will.

    Again, It wasn't my intent to be offensive. What does FUD mean? I've always wondered.

    Got 2 nanofuries mining away overclocked to 53 osc6-bits on my USB 3 hub. Stable for 5½ hours so far.



    Could you share your command line please?

    This is how I'm running mine:

    Sample usage instructions:

    sample command line:
    bfgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333 -u vs3_nanofury1 -p nanofury1 -G -S all --set-device NFY:osc6_bits=52

    Although I'm running that under Windows (as you can tell by the .exe) the command line would be the same for all operating systems.

    Thanks, I wanted to replicate exactly Luke's running on 3.3.0 since I'm unable to get them detected using that version either.

    He's not running on a Pi tho, so maybe that is the true difference?

    Code:
    {
        "scan-serial":["nanofury:0000062320","nanofury:0000062135"],
        "set-device":"NFY:osc6_bits=53"
    }
    You shouldn't need anything special though.
    My first line is necessary because mine haven't had their USB strings programmed.
    The second increases osc6_bits to use more power since it's on a USB 3 hub.

    Like I stated in a different thread.

    /dev/hidraw* are present but are created with 600 root:root and no t sticky bit.

    I've manually changed those with no difference in the results.

    The 248 suggests it was in the middle of a SPI transfer at some point.
    Have you tried power cycling the NF?

    Still not sure of power... is there a light on these things?

    I alternated between all 10 units and plugged them in with no lights on the nano fury's

    I wonder if they're not getting enough power?

    Still unclear....

    I have rosewill's and dlink hubs

    I inserted one into hub:
    (...)

    Just to clarify - the question is whether the devices get enough power or not. It is not what is the brand of the hub.
    The only thing that matters is if those are powered hub or not.

    You need a powered hub. And you appear to have a regular one that draws all its power from the PC. That power is barely enough for 1 device (when you add the power used by the hub).

    From your logs it appears that the NanoFury devices do get detected and they pass the first check (that's when it reads the serial numbers), but once the chip gets turned on and given work to do (which leads to the chip starting to need and use all that power) you get a "checkport failed" message indicating that the device no longer responds.
    So the only difference between the first check and after the second check is that the second time the chip is working and using power.

    That leads me to suspect that your hubs are likely not powered or don't have enough power.

    You can easily check if my theory is correct by plugging just one device into a USB port directly on your computer (and not via hub and not on a RasPI since its ports are not properly powered - e.g. don't provide at least 500mA as per the USB2.0 specs).

    The NanoFury devices do have a light - that white component on the board is the LED. It will turn on (yellow) when the device is working. In your case since it probably runs out of power very quickly you may see this light turn on for a very brief moment - like a fraction of a second (e.g. 10-20mS).

    I'm using 4A hubs, I mention the brands so we know they are name brand hubs and not china hubs.

    What in my statement made you think they were un-powered?


    I plugged 1 nanofury into a 4A powered hub and got the error messages above.

    I alternated placing 1 nanofury into the 4A hub and did not see any lights appear so I asked if they had lights on them.

    Quick question:

    Can these mine in conjunction with Block Erupters?  It appears that bfgminer doesn't auto-detect my block erupters, and cgminer doesn't detect the nanofuries, so I have to have both processes running ATM.  I tried adding --scan-serial erupter:all to my bfgminer parameters, to no avail.  Are there additional steps I have to take?

    Yes, I've been doing just that.

    Many block erupters were sold without autodetection support*.
    If you are using cgminer with them, then you/cgminer (Windows/Linux) have replaced the correct SiLabs/cp210x driver with WinUSB/usbfs.
    You will need to undo this to use it with any software that uses the standard interfaces, including BFGMiner.

    * cgminer will automatically probe any cp210x devices to check if they are erupters; BFGMiner only does this with -S erupter:all unless they identify themselves as Erupters up-front.

    If someone that has them working can try them in a USB 2.0 hub that would be awesome.
