Topic: Faulty Blue Fury (Read 1147 times)
I bought mine as part of the group buy with Julz who is the Authorised Aussie Seller. Looking at the unit it appears fine. The Red/orange light even blinks as though its doing something but the has rate varies from 10mh/s to a top of 33
It does look like you've got a faulty unit, with the other 4 working normally. Can I ask where you ordered yours from?
I've seen these display a low hashrate or hardware errors by using them in a usb hub with inadequate power. However, since the unit does this when its plugged in by itself, i'd say that it's bad. I'd definitely try and get them to exchange it for a different one if you can.
have you tried cycling each BF in the same USB port, to ensure the problem isn't the USB port you have it plugged into ?
I only tested with BFGMiner 2.3 and CGMiner 2.7 but can give whatever ago. Would just like to sort the issue out by either updating it or replacing i it if need be considering I only received it yesterday. Just seems odd that 4 behave normally and 1 seems to refuse to hash almost. Most likely I'm suspecting firmware or hardware fault. If all 5 were playing up it would be something at my end.
BFGminer 3.0 seems to solve hardware errors for Bitfury miners.
Hi All
I know this is definitely not the right thread for this post but with the newbie conditions I dont have a choice. Maybe some can point BeastlyMac this way
Received 5 Blue Furys yesterday, 4 seem to be running fine but the 5th one is hashing at 33mh/s .
I have tried BFGMiner and CGMinrer. BFGMiner just says this unit is 100% Hardware Errors
Setting them up in CFGMiner reports the 33mh/s speed.
The other four are running a little slower than the 2.2-2.7 range but still acceptable
Its running on my Win7x64 Machine. I have tried running it by itself in a hub , on my pc usb2 and usb3 ports but doesnt seem to matter.
Anyone else with a new BlueFury had any issues?
