0b) What You Need (top) (#post_contents)
You will need the following:

  • A host windows PC.
  • A 1A+ USB hub (see below).

https://i.imgur.com/AXm1t8k.png
1) Powering (top) (#post_contents)
BiFurys are USB based miners, and as such are powered directly from a USB hub. Hub choice is extremely important when running multiple miners. The USB2
specification is designed to provide up to 0.5A, and USB3 0.9A and so USB3 is strongly recommended.

  • Plug in the USB hub's power adapter into the mains and the USB hub.
  • Plug the BiFury into USB hub.

USB 3 Hub:

https://i.imgur.com/AXm1t8k.png
2) Cooling (top) (#post_contents)
External cooling is not strictly required at stock speeds, but is strongly recommended. This can be done with the use of a 120mm or USB powered fan.

3) Configuration (top) (#post_contents)
Configuration is straight forward. Both BFG and CGMiner are currently supported and a Windows based PC is therefore recommended.

BFGMiner:
  • Plug in a USB cable from your USB hub to your PC.
  • Power the BiFury as above and turn the hub on.
  • No drivers need to be installed.
  • Download BFGMiner (http://luke.dashjr.org/tmp/code/webisect/webisect.php?dobuild=bfgminer) and run it.
  • Create a new text file using notepad, with your pool and miner information in it, as below. Save it as a .bat file in the same directory as BFGMiner.
  • Run the bat file to start mining.

Antpool Register! (https://account.bitmain.com/sign_up)
Code:
bfgminer.exe -o stratum.antpool.com:3333 -u username_worker -p anypassword
BTCGuild Register! (https://www.btcguild.com/)
Code:
bfgminer.exe -o stratum.btcguild.com:3333 -u username_worker -p anypassword
GHash IO Register! (https://cex.io/signup)
Code:
bfgminer.exe -o us1.ghash.io:3333 -u username_worker -p anypassword
