Topic: Gridseed 5 Chip Cells (Read 9474 times)
sry for bumping this but, i'm using vmware, and i can't get those little babies to work
This happens sometimes....Are you using the silver fins? This problem seems to occur more often with the silver fins. Keep restarting the cpuminer until you see it accepts shares. It should accept the first share within 2-3 mins
Yeh its the silver one. Got it to work, thanks.

Is there a way to use a regular power supply like this one - http://www.ebay.com/itm/400633139181?var=670187426663&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Or must I necessarily do the wires thing?

You can use something like that just fine. I would try to find one with a higher rating though, 5A is really on the limit if you do dual mining. It should be fine if you only use the scrypt mode.

Yes, that's what it says.
I had a regular 12v 6a power supply laying around (like one for a laptop), I tried using that, but the device showed a red light. Why wouldn't this work?
Does it have + on the inside and - on the outside? Also the correct size plug (5.5x2.5mm)?

I'd be mainly interested in having a decent working version of either of them for the gridseeds, my donation goes to the first one 
I'd rather spread the gridseeds per 20 over multiple raspberry's to be able to use different pools plus a lower risk of failure for the whole "grid".

Ah, let's see whether this one is finished faster than MinePeon, then I'll have to get another Raspberry
Is minepeon working on the gridseeds as well? Couldn't find anything about that?
Nope, haven't seen confirmation of that but when it's taking over 30% of the scrypt mining capacity it'll probably be added somewhere.
Yeah, you're probably right. But the scripta devs have been working on it for some time already. I would just love to have a single raspi manage everything. Either with minepeon adding scrypt support, or with scripta adding sha support.

i have the custom cpuminer from gridseed running on my raspberry pi.
Its pretty easy to install, just compile it and you will have the minerd in the checkout dir after that run it with:
sudo ./minerd -G /dev/devicename -o stratum+tcp://pool:port -u worker.name -p password --freq=750 -D
The -G option can be either /dev/ttyUSB0 [or a higher number] or /dev/ttyACM0 [or a higher number].
I'm running 4 of them now on my Pi, along with some sha256 asics. Every miner needs a separate minerd instance.
I have the gold units.

That sounds awesome! Can you give a more detailed description what version o minerd you used, how to compile them, and what linux version you use on the raspberry pi?
And the most important question, are the miners using only the LTC core or both?
Take a look at the scripta thread on litecointalk: https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=9908.45 there is a link to the custom minerd there.
Also, I was quite amazed with the performance increase from going from the controller to a raspi:

I will try again the version that I compiled on Linux, now that the 'hardware issues' have been solved and it's hashing fine on Windows.
Unfortunately, my new attempt confirms that the cpuminer from gridseed's github doesn't seem to get any shares from the silver unit (while the Windows compiled version from LightningAsic works).
If you need to stay on Linux, I would attempt either the VM or Wine route for now
So is it not yet possible to run the 5-chip units under linux then? Does any linux miner software exist? I compiled the gridseed github minerd and got the same issues:

Don't worry too much about it, if you read my later posts and follow this topic, you will see that the modified CPUMiner works with silver units, although you may face several difficulties like others and I did.
I will try again the version that I compiled on Linux, now that the 'hardware issues' have been solved and it's hashing fine on Windows.
By the way, the output above is normal, you may want to leave it running for a couple of minutes to see if any shares are found and sent back to the pool (look for such lines in the log)

Notice that minerd always reports '0.00 khash/s' which is misleading - it's just unable to report the hashrate.
Apparently the modded CPUMiner above only works for the USB single-chip version.
All the help and info that I found here and other forums always assume that we are using the controller that we don't have.
So I guess I'll wait for rescue from Beastlymac on this one

I got it mining in single mode as well. Has anyone got it to mine btc and ltc at the same time? without the wii controller?
Okay some photos
okay pretty plugs when wired correct = blue wire wrong= red

hi all
Thanks for the instructions beastlymac, i followed them on my laptop and i seem to have it working
.
Now i have 3 questions for anyone that may be able to help
- will there be support for CGminer? - if so what do we need to do different?
- cpu miner is not showing the KH that sits at 0, but its accepting shares and working (as i can see hash rate on pool stats)?
- Can we somehow downclock this and run lowerspeed to make it quiet?. i live in a flat so i dont care too much about a large hashrate i just want it to be quiet, i can manage to probably downclock the fan myself - how do we check the temp and whats a safe temp?
Thanks

What cables are supplied, and what cables do i need to buy seperat.
If you got 1 five chip unit like I did you get 2 cables . 1 is a usb cable that you will need to shave some black plastic off . my photo is above.
he also put a power cable in you need to wire it to a 12 volt 6 amp power source. make sure you do not wire it in reverse. the cent should be positive the outer negative.

First post updated with text tutorial for the silver units. I will have the photos uploaded tomorrow.
shaved the usb plug. it now fits.
I took off 1/16 of an inch or 1.5mm

What software do I need to install to get the show going?
Any special instructions?
Anyone have step by step yet?
I've seen a couple of attempts at it but nothing viable yet.
if you have a controller it`s as easy as navigating to the ip of the controller (via a web browser), set your pool/username and you are ready to go
Thanks
I don't have a controller, yet.
I was told that I can run these CG3355 miners via USB direct via my PC's USB port.
I am using a 10 port USB hub, 5 miners plugged in to it, then the hub is plugged in to the laptop USB port.
I tried running cgminer 3.1.1 but it says "no devices detected"
What do I need to do to get them mining for me?
I need step by step instructions from setup to actually mining.
Appreciated! D
Are the gold units dev units? The reference USB miner PCB schematics that gridseed posted on github correspond to the red ones. Afaict the gold ones differ in a couple ways: there are three large capacitors instead of two, and there's actual pins instead of solder points in a couple spots. Is the MCU different too? From gridseed's firmware sources and PCB schematics, the MCU should be an STM32F103C8T6.
The red one is the dev unit the gold/silver are end user units.

Can someone point this newb toward the discussion or setup instructions for my 5 chip Gridseed USB Scrypt SHA miners?
I'm all hooked up to my powered 13 port USB hub, and all pods are being fed 12V.
All connected up via USB to my windows 7 laptop...
Green lights are flashing at 1 or so sec intervals.
I need the steps from here on so I can get up and running and start mining tonight! Wink
I can hardly wait!
I'm not sure if I want to pool or go solo. What ever pays more daily, for now!

Cross posting from Beastlymac's GB thread, for those who came straight to this topic, it may be useful:
I found the problem. The mini-USB end of the USB cable that was supplied with my unit was just slightly too big to properly fit into the hole through the heatsink. Because it was the "original" cable that was supplied with it, I naively thought that just pushing it firmly into the hole was going to work, even though it skewed the connector a bit. But actually, it didn't. I highly suspect that weak/bad contacts made the data lines too noisy for working Tx/Rx.
When I had tested with another cable with a smaller mini-B connector, I wasn't using the ATX hi-power supply but a lower grade one, because I thought that 7 watts was the rated power for the whole device, and not for a single chip. The actual power draw at wall is indeed close to 5x7 = 35W. I suppose that the solid red LED had that meaning (something like "I got underpowered, so I stopped working").
So I'm sorry for having raised unnecessary concerns here, it seems that all is well after all.
The lessons to be learned IMHO:
And for those who wonder, during normal operation, status of the LEDs is the following for my unit:
At 600 MHz frequency, measured 10-min avg hashrate on pool side is around 300 khs as expected.

The lessons to be learned IMHO:
- If you get a mini-USB connector that doesn't quite fit into the hole of the heatsink, use another cable with a slimmer connector, and don't try to force it into the hole like I did
- Do not underestimate the power requirements like I did. OP mentions 7W as power spec for scrypt-only mode 5 chip unit, but it is actually 7W per chip, i.e. 35W
And for those who wonder, during normal operation, status of the LEDs is the following for my unit:
- Green LED blinking at regular 1 second interval
- Red LED turning on/off at slower, irregular intervals, typically between 3-5 sec
At 600 MHz frequency, measured 10-min avg hashrate on pool side is around 300 khs as expected.
@matt4054 What PSU are you using picture ... ?
I have tried a third one now, The 12V rail on a Corsair TX 750W so it should really not be an issue.
Device is only drawing about 10W from the PSU anyway.
LEDs are blinking when starting the mining software, but the software is sending data to the device w/o receiving anything, apparently.
Did you have any success with your unit? What software are you using to mine?
Edit: I'm going to try again this time in a Linux VM and compiling forked cpuminer from source
Edit: No, I could eventually get the file and even the version provided by LightningAsic doesn't work with the 5-chip silver (same results)

If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, I'm all ears. I already moved it to a high power PSU so it shouldn't be the issue
***
All the help and info that I found here and other forums always assume that we are using the controller that we don't have.
So I guess I'll wait for rescue from Beastlymac on this one
Same here, I got my 5 chip unit from Beastlymac early this morning by Express post. Yay \o/
Now trying to figure out how to mine without a guide or any skills reading Chinese is going to be fun
I will post my "install log" here if I succeed before anyone made a decent guide already.

I am going to receive my 10 5chip units within 2 weeks. Can't wait to read your guide. 
space for usb guide.
space for gold and red guides.
I am currently in the process of writing a guide for the silver devices and will have it ready soon.
I will have setup information for red, gold and silver units. If anyone wants to help out with contributing to the guides please pm me.
Thanks
