Question on licensing.  I currently have the Premium edition licensing which allows for 20 miners.  I actually have 22 miners and don't see that going up significantly any time soon, given the current climate.  I can't see paying another $170 just to gain visibility to those last 2 miners.  I also don't care for multi-user access control as I'm the only one managing the rigs, which is the only additional feature I would gain by going to the Enterprise edition.

Have you considered offering like a 5-pack or something of just additional miners with no additional features?

Also curious if a Remote Agent for Ubuntu is on the road-map at all?

Hi,

Dev Team, could you please adding full support for Bitmain Z9 miner.

For some reason if I add pool to miner from awesome miner, miner console on bitmain stopped show statistics until reboot.
Have you tried with another pool? There have been instances where Antminers simply not working well with certain pools and the result is that they stop answering monitoring requests from applications like Awesome Miner.

I have 3 Z9's that I monitor from AM.  Have had no issues to date.  I started out on MPH on 6/22 but have since switched to Luxor.

One thing I should mentioned through, is that the main temperature displayed for the Z9 is the PCB temp.  Shouldn't the Chip temp be the main one? (the temp displayed in the compact view)

Miner view from Z9 status page:



And summary view from AM:



AM ASIC tab:



The Chip temp is always higher than the PCB temp and is the more critical one to keep an eye on, no?

Awesome Miner version 5.2.4 (Development preview of 5.3)

Hi, Patrick
Starting with versions 5.2.3 and 5.2.4 respectively, began to observe this picture
Code:
http://images2.imagebam.com/cc/7b/a9/3273be910022894.PNG
And as a consequence, the "profit switcher" switches all ant on this coin, peeling off BTC / DGB, etc., which are the most profitable
Is it possible to make some sort of averaging of the price, when data is taken from several calculators?

PS thanks for the windows tied to the monitor, it really works and saves time when setting up
WhatToMine and Coincalculators.io uses different short name on Maza, which is why they both show up. I suppose one these short names are incorrect. Otherwise Awesome Miner will only use one of these sources, depending on the priority defined in the Options dialog, Statistics section.

I do understand your point about avg. value, but the concept at the moment is to only display the coin from one of the sources.

This is quite weird situation. Awesome miner is working all the time, but internal web page for monitoring is loading data until reboot. Mining never stopped and actually switch pools, but web interface never updates from Awesome console.
I'm not sure if I fully understood the last part here. Is the information in Awesome Miner displayed incorrect compared to what's actually going on? Do you have any more details to share on this? Thanks!

very thanks
CryptoDredge benchmark incorrect , i select 1 gpu benchmarking but value sum all gpu benchmarked .
Thanks for reporting this issue - it will be resolved in the next release. It turns out that ccminer uses --devices flag, while CryptoDredge expects --device

Any plans to support the new excavator ? seems to be the fastest at lyra2z also now.
 No support for other pools than nicehas doh Sad
I've received a few requests for this one, so it will be supported later on. I'm however getting the impression that the Excavator miner isn't as popular to use these day, because it's limited to the Nicehash pool only like you point out.

If I want to add this to online services.  what would be the Algorithm api identifier?

Seems its a # in the other nice hash online services.
I have all this
stratum+tcp://x16r.usa.nicehash.com:3366
username: YourBitcoinAddress
password: x

Please advise

Thanks again
I will add this one in the next update.

Nicehash uses 33 as the API identifier for X16r:

You should really consider a tiered system for paying for the premium level or lower the version needed for reporting. I'm a small miner, I can't pay $170 just to get reporting for a small miner. Have you considered charging per miner for long term stats keeping? I could see paying for the professional version if it had stats, but that's all I'm really interested in. $170 is incredibly steep just for reporting for 1 single miner.
Thanks for your feedback. Pricing can be difficult, as there can always be scenarios where the combination of pricing, feature levels and number of miners doesn't match all expectations. There are a number of fixed editions for Awesome Miner, where the features and number of miners are fixed. The current concept is that either more features or more miners will require a higher edition.

One reason why it make sense to let the feature level force a specific edition is that from a technical support point of view, more features results in more support questions - while the difference between 4 or 20 miners typically don't generate more support questions.

Well, tbh you could document the reporting a lot better than you're currently doing which would eliminate a lot of the questions in advance while bringing in a vast revenue stream of new purchases. The number of hobbyist miners is probably 10 fold more than the multi rig owners that would shell out $170. With a higher level of documentation on the reporting, you could reap the rewards without worrying about an onslaught of question. Not to mention you could refer them to this bct link where questions could also be answered by the community. I've never really tried awesome miner altho I've been mining for a while. The #1 reason being what I've heard from others, there's no information to make an educated decision on my business. Up to you, thanks for listening.

I support the idea of ​​better documentation. It is old, sections are missing and documentation of new functions is not added ...

On statistics, of course it is impossible to have anything real, because everything is based on estimates and there may be large deviations from the estimate to the real. I usually test each pool / currency to modify its profit to be closer to reality.

Even so, you can do some simple statistics. You can take the value of the estimated daily hash (all rigs), take a sample per minute, or every few minutes, and at the end of the day averaging that data.

It is not perfect and there will be deviation, but at least there is a reference, and if I change options, time of profit, if I choose certain currencies, I can see as the days pass the changes in the estimated daily profit averaged. I already say in advance that it is not perfect but it is perfectly useful to know if you are going to get worse or better.

You can do more simple statistics, type: How many times you have changed the currency, so you know if it changes a lot or little. What are the most mined coins in time, gains by Protocol (skein, X16s etc ...) etc ... You can do many things more or less easy to help make decisions. Right now there is nothing to help make decisions.

Better than having nothing, it is better to have estimated values.

Patrike two days ago when it came out install the latest version, the one that brings ccminer 2.3. My surprise has been that Ccminer has not been installed with the update, I had to add it yesterday as managed software and without problems.

I do not know what happened, I updated from the same program, but I do not understand why ccminer 2.3 was not installed. I mention it as a note in case the same thing happens to other people.
If you use the Automatic download feature, which is default, the Ccminer 2.3 should have been used the next time you start the miner. Please note that the Remote Agent also needs to be of the latest version.

If you run the Diagnostics on the miner, does the zip-file name and folder name indicates that it tries to launch Ccminer 2.3?
