0a) What to Expect (top)
The BiFury is designed by c-scape and features 2 Bitfury generation chips. It ships in a USPS cardboard sleeve and is wrapped in copious amounts of static paper.

Chips	2x Bitfury gen2
Hashrate	~5GH stock
Rated Voltage	5V
Rated Current	0.9A
Power.Consumption	4.5W

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

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

1) Powering (top)
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.

2) Cooling (top)
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)
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 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.
