Hello Patrike,
For a number of coins, i used to specify only binance in exchange list filter. Since last update, this is no longer working. All coins where only binance was used, are marked in grey in coins tab.
Could you check this please ?
Do you have any example of a coin where it's listed with Binance on the coin statistics web site, but not show up with Binance in Awesome Miner? There are still quite a number of coins from CTM that shows up with Binance in Awesome Miner.

Sure, I have problems with RVN, XZC, XVG, BTG for example.

Hi Patrike,

little issue with dynamic update (via wallet JSON-RPC), I'm running a TZC (TrezarCoin - Neoscrypt) node and setting up RPC for access, difficulty was easy with the

Code:
getinfo

method

then I try to get the Block Reward (reported by pool as incorrect, in my experience, all blocks are 100 TZC so far, ZergPool reports 80 TZC, CoinToMine reports 92 as it uses pools data and avg), so I setup the dynamic update call with getblocktemplate method

Code:
{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id": "curltest", "method": "getblocktemplate", "params": [{"rules":["segwit"]}] }
and AM read the value without issues from the UI with JSON propertie expression:

Code:
result.coinbasevalue

+ Arithmetic operation

Code:
/ 1000000

however, in the coins tab, only the difficulty gets updated and the Block Reward remains at 0.0 when I enable dynamic update from coin properties (check only Difficulty + Dynamic update, Block reward + Dynamic Update checkboxes)

Could you please see if you you can replicate the issue when you have the chance, Thank you!
I've not seen the issue with Block Reward not getting updated. Is the value for Block Reward 0 in the Coin Properties dialog as well?

If you configure the same expression for the Difficulty property instead (putting the Block Reward value in the wrong field, just as a test), is the Difficulty updated correctly?

I don't have access to the wallet JSON-RPC to test with right now, but I can check out this in more detail tomorrow if needed.

Hi Patrike, good suggestion about testing it on the difficulty field, same property also doesn't update on the difficulty field when I deliberately point to it, please see screenshot

Hi patrike,

there is a problem with the exchange providers of CTM. Some of them disappear from the list but they appear in the coins tab. So, they can not be deactivated in each currency or in the general. For example, it is the case of enmanet.com or altmarkets.io
The list of exchanges you can select for your filter is actually a predefined list in Awesome Miner, where it map the exchange names from CC and CTM. It's not dynamically updated.

Enmanet and Altmarkets were added to CTM more recently so they are not mapped to an exchange name in the predefined list. This is why you only see the exchange name on the Coins tab, but Awesome Miner doesn't know how to filter it. I will add these exchanges in the next release. Thanks for the feedback!

@patrike you can add the Vinex exchange that is new to CTM and using this, I can not choose it in the currency exchange list.
Sure, I will add Vinex.

Hi patrike,

1/ I'm testing the load value from custom JSON source. In my case, with the exchange rate.

I get a api like that (in the explorer) and the value that interest me is "buy":


But then I get the result witha a metric: x.xxxE-05


How can I find a artithmetric expression to that?

2/ Another question:

When I set a Custom provider, in this case in the exchange, It would be nice if we could see the name of the new provider instead of the original name

3/ And how get a buyPrice on CoinCalculators?

Code:
[
  {
    "name": "Grin_31",
    "algorithm": "cuckAToo31",
    "image": "images/coin/grin.png",
    "blockTime": 60.0,
    "blockReward": 60.0,
    "lastBlock": 105091.0,
    "price_usd": 3.0702565507108046,
    "price_btc": 0.00074869867660520557,
    "highestBid": 0.00075128,
    "lowestAsk": 0.00059898,
...

1) This is way how small values can be represented. The value 3.11E-5 is the same as 0.0000311 so in your case it will work just fine.

In most locations of Awesome Miner I've enforced the display to not be using the E-format for small numbers. I will make the change for this dialog as well in the next release to make it consistent.

2) Good point. I will consider this.

3) The JSON structure for CoinCalculators doesn't have any property name for each coins structure, so you need a JSON expression like below where you search all entries and look for the coin name. Then you can access any property like:
[?(@.name=='Grin_31')].highestBid

Thanks for the update. Please keep me updated on any findings with the timeout.

Is it only a reboot of the Antminer that makes it show up correctly again - I suppose a restart of the Awesome Miner application doesn't resolve anything? Thanks!

I did increase the timeout - already had 2 miners report as disconnected on AM while still showing active on pool - however, within a few seconds AM showed them "reconnected" so they are still dropping but they seem to get re-added back.

I waited for one to disconnect and then restarted the AM software, it does not reconnect - the warning changes from the API warning to a simple disconnected warning.
For one of the Mining (connected) ASIC miners:
In the Summary tab in the lower part of the screen you will find a property called "Response time", indicating how fast the ASIC miner is responding to monitoring requests from Awesome Miner. If the miner shows up as Disconnected, you will not see anything here, but otherwise you will see a value here. The value should be less than 500 ms all the time.

For one of the Disconnected ASIC miners:
Please select the miner and click go to the toolbar: Tools -> API Report. If the ASIC miner respond to any requests, you will have more than 100 lines of information in the response. If no response, you will just have a few lines with the name of the API commands that Awesome Miner sent to the ASIC miner.

For the Antminer API - did you follow my previous suggestion about testing with a completely different mining pool?

I've had a number of cases in the past where some specific mining pools could cause the problems you describe with miners showing up as Disconnected after a while - although they still were mining on the pool. What happens here is an issue on the Antminers when mining on some pools begin to respond slower and slower to monitoring applications (API requests). After a while the responses are so slow (or not given at all) that Awesome Miner will simply consider the miner to be Disconnected.

Please note that this is an issue on the Antminer under certain conditions - not an Awesome Miner issue. For this reason you will run into the same issues even if you would test with another monitoring solution.

This is also why I keep answer with the same suggestion all the time, about doing troubleshooting and testing with another mining pool, so we can confirm the issue. Thanks!

There is one setting in Awesome Miner that might help a bit, where you can have Awesome Miner wait longer for the responses from the Antminer. Please go to the Options dialog, Advanced section, and increase the "Miner API connection timeout" to 10 seconds for example. This will however not solve the main problem, only make it show up less frequent. You can try this if you want, but my main suggestion is still about the mining pool.

yes, Kano.is, Slushpool, BTC.com pool, ViaBTC pool also tried several other SHA-256 pools that are not bitcoin pools. I get it no matter what the pool is.  I understand what you mean but it does not solve my issue - I need to be able to remotely see what each miner is doing without having the need to reboot them. Before I just had the Antminer screens open - one browser window per miner (so you can imagine a lot of windows) and each window set to a 15 second refresh and this worked fine except for the need to switch between so many windows.

I will try the miner API Connection timeout - I think you suggested that once before and it might have worked - I do not recall but maybe one of the updates reset it back? and I just need to go in and change it again.

I will play with the settings this weekend and let you know.

I also noticed that on the dashboard screen, it shows my active miners as one number but under active devices, under "ASIC" it has the wrong value - my guess is that it relates to the T15, like it sees it as an active miner but not as an ASIC for some reason.
Before I made the change for Antminer T15 in the recent development release 6.2.9, the ASIC count wasn't including this miner like you describe. However, this should be working fine since the latest development version.

sorry but maybe I am misunderstanding - are you saying it should be corrected now? or will be corrected with next update? I have no updates to install and says it is using most current version but I do not see the temps for the T15 nor do I see it counted as an ASIC on the dashboard screen.
The device count should be fine in development version 6.2.9, released a few days ago. Version 6.2.8 is the latest public release - but you can upgrade to 6.2.9 in this way:
To get access to development versions, open the Options dialog in Awesome Miner. In the General section, enable Check for development versions. Then go to the Menu and click Check for updates.

You can confirm your current version in the lower left corner of the Awesome Miner main application.

Still having the API disconnect every few minutes as well. sometimes it reconnects other times I have to reboot all the miners. I may have to stop using AM and find another way to report miner details. I feel that with all the reboots that I am just losing money because the miners are being stopped and rebooted simply so AM can see them - when in fact they are working fine.

I looked into this scenario and there was no way of including the username and password in the HTTP authorization header.

I've just added support for entering a username and password for the HTTP request and tested it with a local wallet - and it works fine.

I've also updated the documentation for this, although you cannot use it until the next development release is available. Please see "Load coin difficulty from local wallet software via JSON-RPC API":

Thank you patrike! This is marvellous! This resolves the issue with some public explorers with API caching issue (chainz.cryptoid.info - and consequently, CoinCalculators using it) and cause delay in reported difficulty which is far different than actual "current" value.

Time to setup a dedicated wallets node box for good potential PoW chains without a (good) explorer while waiting for next AM release (Perfect Timing!). Saves API bashing public services as well and potentially getting oneself banned/flagged by them.
