Avalon 3 units communicate with a UART, usually attached to your host via a generic USB UART adapter. First, figure out what COM port (or /dev/ttyUSB on Linux) and run BFGMiner with:

bfgminer -S avalonmm:\\.\COM22 --set avalonmm:clock=450 --set avalonmm:voltage=0.6625 --set avalonmm:fan=80

Firmware

703n/RPi Host Firmware

After 20140320, the Avalon2 firmware support both Avalon2 and Avalon3 out of box. Please download the firmware here:
