Cgminer-scryptCGMiner 4.3.5 with GridSeed and Zeus scrypt ASIC support.This file describes Scrypt-specific settings and options.For general CGMiner information refer to README.Scrypt algorithm code was ported from CGMiner version 3.7.2.Zeus./autogen.sh./configure --enable-scrypt --enable-zeusmakeThe Zeus driver needs to be configured with two runtime options: the number ofchips per ASIC device with --zeus-chips and the desired clock speed in MHzwith --zeus-clock. These options are applied to all Zeus miners. To set optionsfor a specific device use --zeus-options ID,chips,clock where ID specifiesthe device (see below) and chips and clock set the respective options. MultipleID,chips,clock tuples can be joined together separated by semi-colons.Device SelectionWith no --scan-serial options the driver will use libusb to autodetect anyconnected miners and to perform all device I/O operations. This is therecommended method if multiple drivers are compiled into cgminer.If --scan-serial zeus:auto is specified, the driver will use libudev toidentify which USB-serial ports (if any) are from a Zeus miner and open thoseports directly. All I/O will be done using direct serial reads and writes(not through libusb). This method may not work properly if multiple driversare enabled. This method is only available on Linux.Individual devices can be specified manually using --scan-serial zeus:/dev/ttyX(note the "zeus:" is optional if only the Zeus driver has been compiled in). Thisdisables autodetection (for the Zeus driver only) and all I/O will also be doneusing direct serial reads and writes instead of through libusb.The following three examples are equivalent assuming three miners are connected:# Using libusb./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips 96 --zeus-clock 328# Direct serial I/O, auto-detect ports (Linux only)./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips 96 --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial zeus:auto# Direct serial I/O, manual port specification./cgminer --scrypt --zeus-chips 96 --zeus-clock 328 --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB0 \ --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB1 --scan-serial /dev/ttyUSB2The different methods are provided to accomodate different systems or preferencesand as fallback.Device IdentificationWhen using serial I/O the ID for use with --zeus-options is the full
