What if I don't want to use the PI and want to control it from my PC instead ?
The Pi is simply a controller that can connect to your PC, you can control from you PC in the browser. check this scrypta screenshot. it runs on your iphone/pc browser
And that is exactly what I don't want. I don't want to use the Pi at all, since it will limit what I can do and configure.
I want software on my PC to have control, not just look at my miner in a browser screen...
Can I at least point each blade to a different pool?
hi, it might be possible for you to do it, i haven't tried, but in theory, it could work
it requires some linux command , by default. all modules works in one pool under one cgminer instance.
if you are experienced user, you can log into your pi and do following to point each of your A2 Miner's Glade to different pool
if you have A2MINI, 2 Blade requires run this command twice with different pool and different controller
/usr/bin/screen -dmS cgminer /opt/scripta/bin/cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool2 -u worker1 -p x --A1Pll1 1200 --diff 8 --api-listen --api-network --cs 8 --stmcu 0 --hwreset --no-submit-stale --lowmem
/usr/bin/screen -dmS cgminer /opt/scripta/bin/cgminer -o stratum+tcp://pool2 -u worker2 -p x --A1Pll2 1200 --diff 8 --api-listen --api-network --cs 8 --stmcu 0 --hwreset --no-submit-stale --lowmem
if you have 6 module, simply replicate this, but with --A1Pll3 1200 and a different pool
