+AVALON 2/3
+----------
+
+Avalon 2/3 units communicate with a UART, usually attached to your host via a
+generic USB UART adapter. Therefore, you will need to manually probe the correct
+UART device with the -S option:
+
+-S avalonmm:\\.\COM22
+
+Next, use the --set option to configure at least your desired clock frequency
+and voltage.
+
+Avalon 2: --set avalonmm:clock=1500 --set avalonmm:voltage=1
+Avalon 3: --set avalonmm:clock=450 --set avalonmm:voltage=0.6625
+
+You may also want to set the fan speed, which is specified as a percentage:
+
+--set avalonmm:fan=95
