I restored my configuration from a backup. The node is up and downloading the blockchain. The miner is up, but inactive and the original pool information seems to be stuck in the settings, despite changing to my new one. Any ideas? Thanks!

Try restarting in the miner software. Seems a hard restart sometimes does not restart right

That did it, thank you. I'll let it run in eco mode until the chain syncs-up.

You can run in Turbo mode immediately. Bitcoin Node synchronizing has nothing to do with miner itself, it's just more CPU time on OrangePi 4. Miner process itself use barely any CPU time and RAM, regardless of Eco or Turbo mode.

Problem of running turbo while syncing is not CPU bottleneck, its thermals. The CPU could overheat and shutdown if its running at 100% while syncing, and the hashboard is in turbo mode.

That's a serious problem with the device then. For anyone who don't know how to mitigate this, device should be returned for a repair.
I noticed this flaw, and fixed it somewhat by raising Orange Pi 4 voltage from 3.3 to 5V where it should have been running from the start - fan is rated at 5V but have been slowed down artificially.
