Title: BFGMining and Antminers U2
Post by: sandylee107 on July 14, 2014, 10:26:25 PM
Hello again! I finally got my 3 U2 antminers up and running on BFGMNINGon windows. My question is can I run each Antminer on a different worker ID so I can keep track of mining and adjust overclocking on each one. Some are 1.6-1.8 and 2.2-2.4. I tried setting it up in bat. file but that didn't work. I was lucky it ran at all. Does anyone know if I can do this and how? I would really appreciate help from someone more knowledgeable. Thanks! God Bless and Best Wishes...........Sandy

It is possible but takes some "hacking".

If you want to run them as different workers each U2 will need a connection of its own. That means each U2 must run on it's own BFGMiner.

Running multiple BFGMiners with different configs in parallel is the easy part, just copy the BFGMiner folder and make a bat file for each of them with the acording config.

The tricky part is finding out how to access a particular one of the antminers. That's where I am lost and cannot help you further with detailed info. I know BFGMiner has a way to access a certain USB/Com Port. So you'd need to look up the BFGMiner documention on how to access particular USB devices and then you'd need to find out on what ports your Antminers are connected.

P.S.: Have a mod move this thread to the "Mining Support" sub-forums. You''ll get help there quicker I think.
