I'm sure it's in here somewhere, but how do I run Gridseed 5 Chip miners on both SHA and Scrypt on 2 different pools through BFGMiner?
My understanding is that while the Gridseed ASIC supports both algorithms, the 5-chip orb is not designed to support SHA2 (due to heat).
Regardless, BFGMiner does not support running it in SHA2 mode.


it won't i had one or two it will but if your not careful you can cook it , using both modes, if that' s the pod ?, it is poss but don't it's a  waste of power and needs major cooling.


might have to use a older version of bfg or bfg and cg for both modes to gather or find a bfg fork that has both modes on by default ,same with cg .

Okay, just checking.  I was curious.  I scrypt mine anyways with my super awesome 3 Orbs and 1.4 Mh/s Fury...mostly for fun and to see if I can remember how to get my Rasp. Pi setup, configure things, and have fun.  Thanks!
