One miner is being flagged as "Idle for more than 60 seconds, declaring SICK!" and a big red "sick" flag pops up. IF this continues, the flag turns to "dead."



Obviously, this is not a comforting thing.



Does anyone know what this error means/what causes it/whether to worry/and how to fix it? My Google-fu is weak, as I have yet to discover what this error even means...

That's what mine was doing. Luke says it might be the pool, and he also updated BFG on his Git site which I have downloaded and have been running with no problems so far. That's what mine was doing.

Do you know what version he meant? I am running 4.2.0, which appears to be the latest release... Do you know what version he meant? I am running 4.2.0, which appears to be the latest release...

Definitely open to any comments/suggestions. Like I said, I've got everything running on a Lenovo right now, but cross-system compatibility is always reassuring.

These use a usb1.1 chip for communication. There's a good chance you're plugging them into a usb3 slot which may not work with some usb1.1 devices. See if you have separate usb2/3 slots and try the 2. If not, try plugging a usb2 hub into your mac's usb3 slot and plug it into that hub. You could also try the official cgminer which only just got full support for these. These use a usb1.1 chip for communication.

Just install the new/proper driver, it should cancel out the old one as my PC did



That worked. I had this pointed out to me on another thread. Thanks!



For those who have the same problem, the updated driver is found at:

You bet, glad to help.

You bet, glad to help.

Just for the record, I tested the R-box to the maximum range of my know-how and couldn't get the USBtoUART Bridge driver to recognize it on my late-2012 Macbook Pro (running 10.9.2 Mavs)...



No matter which versions of bfgminer/cgminer I compiled, regardless of which specialized drivers I subbed in (even tried subbing and integrating drivers between bfgminer and cgminer), and irrespective of which parts of the codes I manually forked, the device wouldn't appear anywhere on the system, let alone in cgminer. I've been mining with Bitmain's U2's on said Mac for weeks, so the UART bridge definitely works on Mavericks.



Now, I'm no coding whiz, but I know my way around a few different languages and at this point can read luke's code better than I'm able to read in Spanish (6 years academic). However, the box works with remarkable ease on both my Lenovo Carbon X1 Thinkpad and Lenovo Yoga 2.

ok lets try.



only UART bridge driver installed and anything else

launch bfgminer and put your pool info

press m for manage devices and + for add a device

type: rockminer:\\.\COM41 (replace 41 with the port number of your device)

Here are the main updates:



1. We are still making every effort to produce miners. Rocket Box and R-Box are our key products at present. For R-Box, another 2K production planning is expected to be completed by this week. The first batch of Rocket Box has 2K units. So far, the sales of Rocket Box is basically satisfactory. We will start shipping on June 25.

P.S.: Due to production issues, RX-BOX will be delayed indefinitely. Customers who joined Project R60 will receive 6 units of Rocket Box instead of 4 units of RX-BOX.(For domestic China customers: 3 units of Rocket Box instead of 2 units of RX-BOX)



Assembling











Mining Test







2. We have been developing our own stock exchange platform, of which basic functions have been finished at present. Partial functions need to be optimized. In consideration of calls for share exchange, in addition Havelock has always been in active touch with us, we decide to list RM shares on Havelock. Before that,shareholders who want to trade on havelock please follow instructions below to help us to list,and submit following information to



1) your account on

2) your wallet address associated with RM shares, shares quantity, signature and verification of THAT address.



VERY IMPORTANT： Only complete signature and verification information can prove you are the owner of that address.

3. Due to fierce competition of miner selling, profit has been greatly compressed. Dividends for all shareholders will be delayed. We have to give priority to ensure the subsequent production plan. We believe no one wants to see that ROCKMINER has no fund for further production after we distribute dividends. Time for dividends may be delayed until July.



P.S. We updated the running command of OC R-BOX:
