Do you mean to be underclocking and undervolting your Avalon?  Can you run the command `ls -l /dev/tty*` and post the output?

Hey Nick, thanks for your response - do you mean run " ls -l /dev/tty*" as part of the initial command line, or separately after I halt cgminer? Either way, I get "unrecognized command -1"

I meant separately. Use `-l`, not `-1`.

I meant that you should edit it into your original post. This is totally unreadable.

so I add that statement at the end of my cgminer command statement?

Can you try `sudo ./cgminer -S /dev/ttyUSB0 stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u <"username.worker"> -p <"password">` instead?

# Avalon2 times out when using cgminer on the Raspberry Pi

(Asked by: username_0 on 2014-12-31)

I am running `cgminer` on a Raspberry Pi, with the command:

```
sudo ./cgminer --avalon2-freq 500 --avalon2-voltage 7250 --avalon2-fan 50 -o stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u <"username.worker"> -p <"password">

```

and I get the response:

```

When I use the command `ls -l /dev/tty*`, I get:
