BF1 0:                | 2.018G/1.930Gh/s | A:410 R:2 HW:0 WU:28.4/m

Thought these things were 2.2-2.7 Gh/s?

This is with cgminer 3.7.2.  Any suggestions?

It looks like it picks it up if I do

"bfgminer --scan-serial bigpic:all"

Then I just get 1 item, BPM 0, but then I get a segmentation fault 11 immediately

Trying to get it to work together with my block erupters with bfgminer 3.3.0 on OS X.
Using the command "bfgminer -S /dev/cu.usbmodemfd534121 --scan-serial erupter:all"
(/dev/cu.usbmodemfd534121 is the address of the blue fury)

It picks up all the erupters, but I always get "/dev/cu.usbmodemfd534121 is already in use by another process"
I've tried restarting and RSTing multiple times, but I still always get that error.

I also tried just doing "bfgminer -S /dev/cu.usbmodemfd534121" (to see if it by itself, without the erupters, would work) but got the same error.

Has anyone had any luck with this, or know what's causing it?

Thanks

Having trouble getting these to run on Windows. I installed them and updated the drivers manually. The ports start at 143 since I installed so many block erupters and hubs, not sure if that is part of the problem.

I tried the alpha drivers and ran #mine.bat and I get an error that I do not have permission to open the com port that the bit fury miner is on. I get the same error if I try to use the 3.5 version of cg miner. I have tried disabling all other devices, rebooting, and using other mining programs, but I cannot get these to run. I am going to try this on one of my RPis since I cannot get them working on Windows unless someone here can hopefully help.

Follow the directions to install the driver, if you are using windows 8 - 8.1 you need to disable driver signing verification.

Then edit the batch script that came with the driver pack "#mine.bat" or create a new one and paste the code below:

Code:
@echo off
@setlocal enableextensions

:: ### SETTINGS #####################################
set poolurl=
set workername=
set workerpass=
:: ##################################################

@cd /d "%~dp0"

title BitFury - Mining Script
set ROOT=%CD%
cd %CD%

echo -------------------------------------------------
echo ---------- BitFury - Mining Script --------------
echo ------------- by: [email protected] ---------
echo -------------------------------------------------
echo.

goto Check_Permissions

:Check_Permissions
    echo Administrative permissions required.
    echo Detecting permissions...
    echo.

    net session >nul 2>&1
    if %errorLevel% == 0 (
        echo Success: Administrative permissions confirmed!
        echo.
goto MiningStart
    ) else (
        echo Failure: Current permissions inadequate!
goto Quit
    )

:MiningStart
bfgminer.exe -S "BF1:all" -o %poolurl% -u %workername% -p %workerpass%
echo Press anykey to Exit!
goto Quit

:Quit
pause >NUL

Then just edit the variables at the top of the batch script inside the settings comment block: poolurl, workername, workerpass

Example:

Code:
:: ### SETTINGS #####################################
set poolurl=stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333
set workername=Pyrex.Worker1
set workerpass=password1
:: ##################################################

Then just run the batch script as administrator and it will work just fine!

Enjoy man!

Beastlymac,
Thanks for the quick response.  I solved the H error rate by going to the original modified bfgminer 3.2.0.  The hash rate is still 2.26 GH/sec.  I posted this in the support thread.

Just got my BF and it's running on Win7 with BFGminer 3.4.0, but the results are strange.  The hash rate is about 2.26GH/S and the HW error rate is HUGE ~ 61% after more than 40 minutes.  Tried resetting BFG, reinserting the device but there is no change.  Is it faulty?

It shouldn't have any issues can you try our version of bfgminer for windows? Or cgminer or our version of bfgminer on Ubuntu or raspbian.

Also please continue the comment in this thread.

More exploration:  using the older bfgminer 3.2.0 with the original batch file seems to solve the high H rate.  The hash rate remains however close to 2.26 GH/sec.

Great news.

5 group buy leaders have had units shipped out today.
ssinc units are clearing customs in the US and Maidak has units on the way Via express. I have contacted some people in response to requiring phone numbers for shipping units to please get back to me promptly. We are still building units and I expect we might have around 100 left over. If people are interested in purchasing them send me a private message.

Thanks

At last some pics!


@Beastlymac : How come the main resellers have not been sent any of these 300 blues? Each person I have spoken to has not received a tracking number and are not expecting a delivery.

It totally sucks... without the resellers group buys you would not have had enough orders to run your batch, you would have had nothing. Nice way to show your appreciation for their efforts. You have left them in the firing line taking the flak for your delays and when you had the opportunity it ease the pressure on them, you chose not to and just looked after a few select individuals.

0.05btc compensation is a joke. That doesn't nearly cover what we have lost due to the rise in diff or the price of btc. The next batch of Bluefury's will have to be priced competitively and will mean a substantial price reduction, so the 0.05btc you give us back will be absorbed in the new price.

When the price for the BlueFury's was set, it was competitive with USB Erupters. The 0.9btc for a BlueFury would have got you about 7 USB erupters and would have delivered roughly equal hashing power.
But the Blues shipped late and at today's rates, 0.9btc will now get you 20 USB erupters, giving you around 7GH/s... way more than a Bluefury.

So does the 0.05btc compensation ease the blow? Not at all.

I totally concur.  I posted the following similar observation at ssinc's thread here:

Code:
Personally, a 0.05 BTC is an inadequate compensation considering all the factors that have been in play and the fact that at this very moment,
I can get 50 BEs (17 GH/s) with a free 49-port USB 2.0 hub for a mere 1.75 BTC.  That equates to 7 BFs at a cost of 6 BTC after the 0.05 discount
is applied (0.85 each)...and they don't come with a 49-port USB hub.

Amusingly, right on cue, some kumbaya lapdogs sort of got their panties in a bunch for merely pointing out such facts.  I'm surprised that you haven't gotten your share of the flak on here yet. Wink



How does what other manufacturers are doing to clear obsolete inventory effect what compensation you are due? How does the price of BTC effect that? If you wanted to speculate on BTC then you should have bought it rather than miners. How are they responsible for the rise in difficulty?
 
The product is about 2 weeks late, and 0.05 reflects what it might have mined in that time. They were not obliged to give it to you, but they did. That is far more than most other preorders have delivered.



Right on cue, eh?  Dude, you gotta chill out.  You are over-ANALyzing posts way too much.  Perhaps, you've been spending way too much time on these forums; an occasional break from it is usually helpful to get your feet back on the ground.

I've stated a fact and based on such a fact, I "personally" believe that the 0.05 BTC compensation/credit is inadequate.  That's all there is to it.  I don't need to elaborate why I feel so; you're not my shrink.  If you're happy with the compensation/credit that has been offered, then knock yourself out.  I couldn't care less.

You cued it.

You made an argument as to why you thought the compensation was inadequate, I disagreed that's all. I don't think that is over analysing anything. I bought these to resell, and I'll probably take a small loss. That's my problem, I took a risk and the reward didn't come off. My feet are firmly on the ground.
