If everything is setup and running correctly you should see something 

similar to this:

   

If you are new to mining, the most important stats on this screen are what is in 
between the dashed lines. These are your per device statistics, so if we follow 
along from left to right for MLD 0, the first number (3.27 mh/s) is your 2 minute 
average hashrate, second number is your overall average hashrate since miner 
start (3.30 mh/s), and the last number (3.19) is the pool hashrate based on your 
submitted shares. A:25 shows your number of shares accepted by the pool, R:
0  shows  number  of  shares  rejected  (usually  due  to  a  stale  share),  and  last 
number HW:0 shows the number of hardware errors reported by the ASIC. This 
is probably the most important value and will be explained in more detail in the 
tuning section below. 

Keep  in  mind  that  the  first  two  numbers  is  the  actual  hashrate  the  device  is 
hashing at (it uses the low level nonce counters to keep track of hashrate and 
is very accurate), so this number will always be higher than your pool hashrate, 
because  it  does  not  take  account  of  inefficiencies  of  lost  shares  due  to  stale 
network shares or hardware errors. So your pool hashrate is your net effective 
rate the device is hashing at.
