How do I get the temperature of my USB Miner?

2

Is there an option I can pass when running the miner? ( CGMiner / BFGMiner )

How does one get the temperature of a USB Miner? ( In my case BitFury )

Have you considered using an external device such as an infrared thermometer? – Greg Hewgill – 2014-02-04T07:49:24.710

@GregHewgill to my understanding this USB Miner has a temperature sensor already, I just wanted to know how to access it – Phill Pafford – 2014-02-04T14:29:06.677

If your device has a temp sensor it will show in the API output and in the Text User Interface that is default when running at the command line

I don't see it though, is there an option to pass to display this information? – Phill Pafford – 2014-02-04T17:41:58.250

1if you don't see it your device probably doesn't have a temperature sensor - most usb stick miners do not – tigerlick – 2014-02-04T17:52:46.367
