Native support in bfgminer 3.5+ Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: btmtb on January 02, 2014, 10:02:52 PM In addition to the support topics you've got in mind, is there any chance you can share any background information on these please Beastlymac? I'm seeing a few around but no consistent story of where they're coming from, some are claiming they're you, some saying Technobit (marto). Do you know who's tweaked the design, what the changes are, and who is manufacturing/assembling/wholesale these?

Post by: HellDiverUK on January 03, 2014, 02:59:58 PM I've got two here, very happy with them. One's running at 2.77GH and the other at 2.55GH - both at 54. Running them on bfgminer 3.9.0, plugged in to a DLink 7-port. Also work fine on an aluminium Anker 10-port USB3 hub.

Have to agree they are a stud stick. better then any of the other 1 chip bitfury sticks I am running 16 of them all at 54 overclock. They range between 2.47 and 2.90 I use 2 gearmo hubs http://www.gearmo.com/shop/10-port-usb-3-hub-gm-3dh10/ with better quality power bricks. I do have 1 question I can not seem to run more then 15 sticks on 1 pc using bfgminer. but the 15 sticks do get me over 37.5 gh. so I run 15 on 1 pc and 1 on another.

Hopefully this helps: Hello, could anyone sent me a kind of tutorial how to get the nanofury working on rasberry pi? I dont know much about linux. Raspian ist still installed, and networkspeed ist reduced like in your messages. But which bfgminer version should I install (link?). What do you mean with "after comiling" are there any other settings do do? ... I tryed lots of versions but nothing works... A small tutorial would save my next 5 evenings :D Greetings from Germany First you need to install needed library Code: 1. sudo aptitude update Second download HIDAPI from git Code: 1. git clone git://github.com/signal11/hidapi.git hidapi Third download bfgminer to some directory(in this example is "miner") Code: 1. mkdir miner You can enable or disable some miner while run ./configure bfgminer with this options Example: ./configure --enable-bfsb --disable-bitforce Code: --disable-avalon Compile support for Avalon (default enabled) Then change usb speed to usb 1 with text editor nano Code: 1. sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt To run bfgminer just go to the directory Code: 1. cd miner That was the summary i colected from other thread since i am also linux noob ;D Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: HellDiverUK on January 07, 2014, 09:29:03 AM ^^^
Adding dwc_otg.speed=1 brings the Pi's USB down to USB1.1 speed. This is a kludge at best, especially considering the Pi's NIC runs off the same USB bus. You're essentially totally nerfing the Pi's USB and NIC throughput to a total 12Mb (taking off protocol overhead you're less than 10Mb). Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: vs3 on January 07, 2014, 11:41:39 AM I agree. I'm not saying it's an ideal solution. I'm merely saying that there is a way. :)
There are also other ways - see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=137934.msg4315185#msg4315185 Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: nwoolls on January 08, 2014, 01:49:48 PM Hi there. I have a How-To up for mining with Ice Fury on Mac OS X:

Post by: tk1337 on January 12, 2014, 05:26:31 AM Beastlymac, I just got the units in today, so far I'm pretty impressed!
Awesome smaller design, makes the Blue/Red Fury USB's look huge, hehe. It would seem as if they are already over clocked, hehe, one is running at a solid 2.9GH/s & the other at 3.2GH/s :D I haven't really played with the much, what's them much yet and won't get a chance to for a little while as I'll be away on business next week, but so far it's looking awesome. What's the over-clocking magic for these, resistor change? If anyone is curious, I'm running them on a Beaglebone Black w/Debian & CGMiner 3.10.0. Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread.

Post by: krazy_al on January 14, 2014, 03:23:50 PM I got in on the pre-order for the Ice Fury and took up the option to get a Red Fury at a slight discount. They arrived today and so far I've not been able to get the Ice Fury to work. The Red Fury is working and giving me what I expected as for a hash rate.
So first I'd love help getting the Ice Fury to be seen. I installed the driver which worked just fine for the Red Fury but when I go into bfgminer it shows one device which is Bitfury BF1 from BFMG. If I do the + to add a device, bfgminer doesn't find the Ice Fury. I'm running Windows 7 Pro and bfgminer 3.9 x64. One odd thing is when I go into Device Manager the Ice Fury is showing up under Universal Serial Bus Devices and is listed as NanoFury NF1 v0.7. The working Red Fury is showing up under Ports (COM & LPT) as Bitfury BF1 USB Miner (COM4). I would expect both to show up in the same spot, I've tried reinstalling the driver for the Ice Fury but no luck from the bfgminer download. The next part I'd love some help with is the batch file for bfgminer. Once I get the Ice Fury working I'd like to have them as different workers so I can keep an eye on them. Would this be a good config, I also have tried to disable GPU mining and neither the -G or --disable-gpu works. Of course my actual batch file doesn't have me.worker1 or Password. bfgminer.exe -o stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u me.worker1 -p Password -o stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u me.worker2 -p PASSWORD -S all Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread.

Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: smoothrunnings on January 27, 2014, 05:58:07 PM I've got two here, very happy with them. One's running at 2.77GH and the other at 2.55GH - both at 54. Running them on bfgminer 3.9.0, plugged in to a DLink 7-port. Also work fine on an aluminium Anker 10-port USB3 hub. Have to agree they are a stud stick. better then any of the other 1 chip bitfury sticks I am running 16 of them all at 54 overclock. They range between 2.47 and 2.90 I use 2 gearmo hubs http://www.gearmo.com/shop/10-port-usb-3-hub-gm-3dh10/ with better quality power bricks. I do have 1 question I can not seem to run more then 15 sticks on 1 pc using bfgminer. but the 15 sticks do get me over 37.5 gh. so I run 15 on 1 pc and 1 on another. That's crazy dude. I have my 5 ice fury's on a vantec 10 port USB 2.0 hub and have upgraded the PSU to a 5VDC 4A and they fine at 54. Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: suzukii on February 09, 2014, 05:09:21 PM So are these Ice Furies still being made? Seems like either no one is carrying them anymore & are out of stock at the same time or that's it for these. No one can get them to stock 'em? I have 3 of them & wished I had purchased more a month ago.

Hi everyone. Wow after all this time I still can't get these white Icefury (Ice Fury, NanoFury, Nano Fury, whatever they should be labeled as, it's all still the same) USB blocks to work with the Raspberry Pi & no word here. Trying it with a separate Rosewil USB 2.0 35 watt powered hub plugged into the Raspberry Pi Model B with the newest BETA (STABLE) of Minepeon v2.4.6 & nada, squat, zilch. Under Windows v7 with Multiminer, it's all great but I'd rather not do it this way. The default config line in Minepeon's Miner Startup Settings reads as follows: #!/bin/bash sleep 10 /usr/bin/screen -dmS miner /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer -S all -c /opt/minepeon/etc/miner.conf Modified the config to: /usr/bin/screen -dmS miner /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer -S "NFY:all" --set-device NFY:osc6_bits=54 -c /opt/minepeon/etc/miner.conf. Still nothing. Shelling into the Minepeon server & executing the "lsusb -v" command displays the following: Bus 001 Device 007: ID 04d8:00de Microchip Technology, Inc. Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level) bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 8 idVendor 0x04d8 Microchip Technology, Inc. idProduct 0x00de bcdDevice 0.02 iManufacturer 1 Microchip Technology Inc. iProduct 2 NanoFury NF1 v0.7 iSerial 3 0000095275 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 41 bNumInterfaces 1 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0x80 (Bus Powered) MaxPower 100mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 2 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 0 No Subclass bInterfaceProtocol 0 None (Truncated the rest) Device Status: 0x0000 (Bus Powered) --------------------------------------------------------- PS: I don't care at this point whether it BFGminer or CGminer is used. As long as one of them could work. PPS: Both of these apps in a Windows CMD box work flawlessly with the Icefuries. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi vs3, I did read the previous threads. I have posts on this thread on the previous pages. I believe some of the previous suggestions mentioned something about slowing down my USB ports to 1.1 speeds. This isn't something I'm looking to do. I do have another hub with 80Gh/s worth of ButterflyLabs miners connected to one of the R-Pi's USB ports on the same Raspberry Pi working just fine and slowing down the USB hubs isn't a viable option for me.

Everything else are antminers that act finicky so i got free replacements for them and this is just me trying not to waste a single H/s even if i can get them to underclock, the Erupters are there to fill in space on the hub.

I hear Nano's prefer to play alone so i can go that route if i need to for trouble shooting. Let's start by going over the stuff one piece at a time: - what software are you using? (Win/Mac/RasPI/32/64bit/etc) and which miner (cgminer/bfgminer/etc) - speed setting can usually be specified on the command line when you start the miner. Some of them also have options permitting you to see the current settings while everything is working. In some cases you can also change them while it's working. - Mixing devices should be okay (even though you may still hit some USB or power or other limitations) If for example you want to use bfgminer you could run it with the following parameters: Code: bfgminer.exe -o <pool_url> -u <username> -p <password> --set-device NFY:osc6_bits=50 You can experiment with various numbers until you find a combination that works for you. Usually those devices will max out at 53/54/55 bits and you'll start seeing a lot of errors. If the error rate goes over 5% that's a sign you've hit (or even exceeded) the limits. Two things to keep in mind when overclocking: - it will use more power - ideally budget 0.8A per bitfury chip - it will be VERY HOT. Adding a fan will be a must. You can also add a small heatsink on top of the bitfury chip - that helps too. Hopefully that helps! Have fun! :) Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread.

A good place to start is bfgminer's thread: https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=168174 and also the readme on github: https://github.com/luke-jr/bfgminer As for the other miners - you may have the most luck by asking those questions on their specific threads. I'm not sure what model and make miner do you have, so I'd prefer not to mislead you and point you to the wrong manufacturer' forum. (Just use the search option on the forums - there aren't that many manufacturers) There are a lot of people keeping an eye on such threads and many of them have already gone through your steps and can likely help with your questions. Title: Re: Ice Fury (nano fury) support thread. Post by: janonathon on May 15, 2014, 07:17:32 PM Let's start by going over the stuff one piece at a time: - what software are you using? (Win/Mac/RasPI/32/64bit/etc) and which miner (cgminer/bfgminer/etc) - speed setting can usually be specified on the command line when you start the miner. Some of them also have options permitting you to see the current settings while everything is working. In some cases you can also change them while it's working. - Mixing devices should be okay (even though you may still hit some USB or power or other limitations) If for example you want to use bfgminer you could run it with the following parameters: Code: bfgminer.exe -o <pool_url> -u <username> -p <password> --set-device NFY:osc6_bits=50 Awesome so i did this and got the nano fury working faster, but just went in to bfgminer 3.10 then device manager and changed the oscillator value from 50 to 52, even got it with a (relatively) low error rate, nothing like zero like i've seen though but now the whole thing has given up on me and when i try to run the nanofury i just get the line "nfy 0: BITFURY_INIT_OLDBUF:GIVING UP AFTER 4 TRIES" but it runs that all night if i let it. ALL my other miners are doing great together on bfgminer 3.10, but i am really stuck here. |
