Hi Patrike,

First of all happy holidays to you and all the Awesomers!

been awhile since I last posted, some suggestions/queries from the past few months of mining (which for me is relatively boring, broken down hardware, stagnant BTC price...hence the inactivity Tongue)

Anyhow, back to topic:

1. Is it possible to collect accumulated power usage data in the mining history of the managed (profit) miners? That would be helpful for me to gauge efficiency and negotiate hosting costs with off-site provider, and something like a hashrate graph but in power consumption would be a great bonus so I can visually present the case of no mining, no charge for unused electricity Tongue

2. Since ZergPool was able to implement several CryptoNight variants into Yiimp mining, I find myself using XMRig at times to be included in profit switching (Btw, using Nvidia, I know, they are crappy for CN but doesn't hurt to have them in profit switcher), is it possible for you to add support for the JSON config section in the Profit Profile's software section like Claymore/SRBMiner, I hope you know what I was referring to, Right Click Miner -> Edit Profit Profile -> Mining Software Priority List -> Select Software in question -> Configure... where you got the override config.txt content if say you select SRBMiner.

3. Can it be corrected that when NanoMiner (mining RandomX) via CPU to show actual CPU power usage rather than the idle GPU stats?

4. To your knowledge, do you know that if AM supports profit switching for the BlackMiner Mini(+) series? like if I get a few of them and if I can use the custom defined pool groups on them as I do with Managed Profit Miner GPU rigs? (I know the website states AM do support the F1 but was unsure about the other models).

5. If 4 is doable, another non-essential question would be if there are any method to add them (obviously in reasonable numbers) to AM if I was to host them behind a NAT, currently using NeoRouter for the VPN for remote miners, not sure what's the most efficient and uncomplicated way to add these standalone FPGA/ASIC in similar fashion.

Best Regards and Merry Xmas to you!

Hello, I have been using your product almost from the very beginning.
thank you fo you work
.
at first I wrote about bugs in the mail, you fixed them.
but now there are a lot of them. and I was just too lazy.

but today I couldn’t stand it, I can spread screenshots, but believe me without screenshots, I’m not doing it for the purpose of slandering, I’m really interested in your product and I see how it went bad.

you scored on bugs and every day there are more and more, I bought the product not to work as a debugger, and I demand that you pay attention and correct them!

here is a few list in the future, I will probably replenish it
1 ) madly infuriates 2 things.
first, after reset failed pools, miner starts automatically why? it wouldn’t be scary if it weren’t for the second, if the miner is configured with an error (and there are a lot of them) I can’t stop it just like that, but I have to wait a moment between start and stop, as a result, the farm goes into reboot if I do not have time to stop! !!!  why for so many years you have not made a forced stop command Huh
 
2) mininpoolhub ethash with standard settings gives log timeout. there are still a lot of similar flaws I will not recount everything

3) a lot of problems with statistics
1.1 i can't do overwide coin algorithm, for example I needed override coin algo myriad_argon2d (algo argon2d-dyn) to (algo Argon2d-4096),
change instead muriad_groestl.

4) why it is not said how to take Coin calculators additianal JSON url. I spent sooo much time....

5) not work dual mode NBMINER in automatic profit switch, and CKB+ETH in managed miner, profit swaped.

6) after added  https://whattomine.com/coins/321-ckb-eaglesong.json , Revenue= 0 in coins TAB

7) your faq is very incomplete

I recently found out that you made the linux version   
I was very happy, but not for long, didn’t it be difficult for you to take the guide step by step. with lots of plugins and packages. because I’m a confident Linux user, I spent a lot of time on tuning, and as a result, half of the miners do not work, there is no overclocking only the control of fans and voltage!


Cool

he most horrible ! Why do we need ACTUAL PAYOUT if it does not work !!!! and do not take into account when switching, if you do not believe me, I can take 20-30 screenshots!


I will continue later need to refresh my memory
THANKS

Linux since 1997 RedHat 4
...
After the discussion last time, I did go ahead with a few changes where it was made much easier for a user to select a good configuration. The users are given these four options since several months ago:
- This computer
- This network
- Any computer (less secure)
- Custom IP access rule

By introducing "This computer" and "This network", Awesome Miner made it easier for the users to do the right thing without having to type IP addresses and access rules. Users doesn't have to learn and write the IP access syntax correctly, as Awesome Miner will secure it for you.

I did however not remove the "Any computer" option, but it's clearly stated in the user interface that this option is "less secure".

The changes made was clearly a move in a good direction by making it easier to select a good configuration and warn about the option that isn't secure.

I understand your point about removing this "less secure" option completely from the user interface. It would of course make it even more likely that a user pick a good configuration. I will make this change in the next release - to remove the option "Any computer (less secure)". Thanks!
Much better Smiley

I could imagine there is one more to add that would also be needed:
Something like "This remote IP"
i.e. the internet IP address of the computer running AM, if the miners are off site.
There are various ways to look it up.

Yesterday you updated gminer 1.84 again but it still doesn't work. In the ann de gminer there is 1.84 and is the official website.

I'm still at 1.83
Hi,

Gminer 1.84 was released on Friday and I made it available via the software definition update. Later they removed the Gminer 1.84 release for some reason.

Because of this, I also removed Gminer 1.84 from the software definitions earlier today.

GMiner wont work anymore...awesome want to start v 1.84 but there is only 1.83

You can just go to managed software and edit Gminer then select version 1.83. It will then work as before.

Clear the downloaded software > Go to settings > managed software > gminer 1.84 > copy the link but change 1.84 to 1.83 > and it will download the right one, or use it.

Hi Patrik,

the command line argument for GMiner Grin29 algo is wrong.

You are using grin29 for both, Cuckaroo29 and Cuckarood29. But for Cuckaroo29 its cuckaroo29  Smiley

Hi Patrike, I have not written to you for a long time, you are doing a great job as always, I remind you of an old request from me and I propose a new one.

Old request:

Know in statistics the times you make profit change in 24 hours and for each moment. To determine if that percentage of mining of a coin has done it in 1 change or in 30. It would help me to make better decisions

The other request is an improvement on something existing. I mean temperature control, which is going very well but I explain.

I use both methods, both the general by TDP with its two options and also the core reduction. My scheme is as follows

TDP 1 limitation: 72 degrees, you under the TDP

TDP 2 limitation: 74 degrees, even more under the TDP

Temperature limitation in each OC or core, I have it at 76 degrees

What is the problem ?, Well, it works well, but is constantly jumping temperature. I have a card that according to the Algorithm gets very hot and is always dancing the temperature of 72 to 76 degrees. Because what happens that when it falls to 71 or 72 the limitations are removed and reheated, when it is heated, the limitations are activated and the temperature is lowered, but then the limitations are removed and again heated. I think that so much temperature change, TDP and core can be even bad.

The idea or solution I see simple. If a card activates a temperature limit for example TDP 1, this limit remains active until it changes algorithm or currency. This way we avoid getting the cards receiving a constant change of TDP and CORE all the time. It is logical that if it reaches TDP 1 and 2 and the temperature drops, if we remove the limitation it warms up again. That's why I think it's a better idea to keep the limitations until you change your currency. That way the temperature would be more stable, and I wouldn't be hitting jumps all the time between 72 and 76 as is my case, I don't want it to reach 76 every time.

I hope it is understood and that you see it well as an idea, the implementation is very easy, basically because almost everything is done, just keep limitations until currency exchange, with which the temperature will not be jumping, we are not changing TDP and CORE several times per minute to the card

Hey, need better profit/data/api for sub 1 satoshi coins
Hi. Is there a specific coin or example where Awesome Miner doesn't do what it should? Or was it more in general you would like to see coin statistics for some new coins?

It was general and specific.
Specific case in point, Turtle coin. Price is sub 1 sats, but is mineable and has value. Markets are in LTC and ETH.
Thanks. I've received similar feedback from @dasch about that it would be good to support ETH and other pairs than BTC for the exchange rate. The Dynamic Data Source concept would have to be extended to support reading values other than BTC.
A small update on this topic.

I'm planning to support a concept for this in the next release (7.2.3). In the Dynamic Data Source configuration, Arithmetic expression field, it will be possible to type something like:
Code:
* helper.ExchangeFrom("ETH")

If you use a JSON source where CoinX only has an exchange pair with ETH, not for BTC, you point the "JSON property expression" to the exchange rate of CoinX (relative ETH). By adding the Arithmetic expression above, Awesome Miner will then convert the value from ETH to BTC when storing the value.

You will be able to use any of the known coins like "ETH", "LTC", "XMR" as a reference for the exchange rate.

Hey Patrik,

if you're going to upgrade the temperature rules, can you do this maybe too?

Right now, if I set a temp rule for a GPU rig and set the "Temperature Source" to "Standard", AM seems to use the highest temp in the whole rig. Is it possible to set the Source to the "Highest" or the "Lowest" GPU (so I can choose Lowest for the Winter, and Highest for the Summer)? Or even better, to a GPU of our choice? Like GPU 0 or GPU 4...?
Thanks. I've looked into the device temperature trigger and it will be more configurable in the new release. I also included a property for highest / lowest.

Hi Patrik,

now in the winter months I need an alarm if my rigs running too cold for like 2 minutes. But no alarm in the few seconds the miner switchs and the rigs have no work (but temperature drops fast).

This can protect them from condensation if anything happens because the temperature drops below the ambient for a certain period of time. In the summer months it can be a great rule too, but vice versa for running to hot. Right now I can only do an alarm if the temperatur drops below a number, even if its not necessary, because of some seconds miner switching.

Is it possible to add in the rules -> Device Temperature a "x minutes ago" value (like in Check Statistics Hashrate, Shares, ...)?

So we can add rules to check a temperature over time, not just right now. Like 1 minute ago and 5 minutes ago, or something like that.

Or is it maybe already possible somehow? If yes, how?
This is unfortunately not possible today.

Maybe it would be even better with a setting to only trigger if the temperature condition is met for X number of seconds, for example 120 seconds (configurable). Then it's not enough with two or three dips in temperature, but it needs to be below this threshold for a while to trigger. I will investigate this during the week to see if it's possible to support with a reasonable effort.

An even better idea, would be great Smiley

In this case you need to point Awesome Miner to the exact property in the JSON structure, where 'data' is top level followed by 'difficulty'. Please try:
data.difficulty
YESS !! It works with data.difficulty. Thank you

Any pointers as to where I can find a working example of adding a new coin to Awesome Miner? A coin which is not listed on WhatToMine. I found where I can get the price,difficulty and such for this coin, but I cannot make it to be read by Awesome Miner. Is there a tutorial about that somewhere?
Thanks for the question. Please see this guide as a starting point:

Is there a restriction for uregistered (unpaid) version which makes it not work properly? I give all the inputs and the JSON properties are read and show up in the text box at the bottom, but the miner gives out an error "unable to read value"
This feature is available for anyone.

I copied the property string ('difficulty') from the JSON response even, but it's still not recognized.
