I'm giving you an example below where any chip temperature above 80 °C will result in red bold text. You can of course adjust the conditions and formatting more if you want.

Code:
"Chip: " + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp1) > 80 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp1 + "": stats.ChipTemp1) + "/" + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp2) > 80 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp2 + "": stats.ChipTemp2) + "/" + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp3) > 80 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp3 + "": stats.ChipTemp3) + " °C"
Thank you,

Hi,

I've just started dabbling with a baikal x10 and awesomeminer. I've setup the api port and such and can see what it is mining and the hashrate, but it is not able to do any profit switching.

Would appreciate it if someone could give me some pointers. Thanks!
Add all the pools/algorithms to your miner itself, even if its 30+ entries, and make sure every one of them is listed in the online services. (All the default pools Awesome miner uses should be listed if enabled globally) If they aren't, add them as user defined online services. Create a profit profile for the miner. Add all the algorithms the X10 uses, deselect any others. Don't select any mining software. Look up how much power the X10 uses on each algorithm, and respective hashrate, and add it in (use custom) you'll make a little bit more that way. That's pretty much all you need to get started. Have fun, and good luck!

Thanks! I've done all those, but the bk-x is only mining the nicehash algos (even though awesomeminer says other pools are more profitable). I assume this is because i have not disabled the "nicehashsma" option?

Awesome Miner is currently limited to what the mining software can offer in terms of failover. As you point out, it's only a few mining software that actually support failover. Most software only take a single pool as a command line parameter and doesn't have any failover concept.

Awesome Miner can still list several pools on the Pools tab, to make pool changes easier, but in case of ccminer for example, ccminer is still only aware of a single pool.

You are making a good point here that Awesome Miner should try to be smarter in case of pool failure. When using the profit switcher, Awesome Miner can detect pools not producing any accepted shares and mark them as "Failed", and use the next pool in the list. Maybe there should be a similar concept for Managed Miners as well, where the first pool can be detected as failed and Awesome Miner would automatically change to the second pool - even if the failover concept isn't supported by the mining software.

When using the profit switcher, the priority of the pools in the Pool Group isn't taken into consideration right now. All pools are ordered by profitability instead. What Awesome Miner should do in your scenario, where you have two pools with the same coin/profit, is of course to also look at the priority as a second sorting factor. That doesn't happen today.


that would make a great future addition to AM's features!

Code:
"TChip: " + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp1) > 85 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp1 + "": stats.ChipTemp1) + "/" + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp2) > 85 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp2 + "": stats.ChipTemp2) + "/" + (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp3) > 85 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp3 + "": stats.ChipTemp3) + "/"+ (Convert.ToInt32(stats.ChipTemp4) > 85 ?  "" + stats.ChipTemp4 + "": stats.ChipTemp4) + " °C"

I ask you to tell me how to combine the two codes so as not to display 0 on the fourth blade when it's essentially not
Code:
(stats.ChipTemp4 != "0" ? "/" + stats.ChipTemp4 : "") + " °C"

Has anyone had success setting up pool priority (for purpose of failover) for GPU Managed Profit Switching Miners along with software other than sgminer/claymore ?

I use pool groups almost entirely and have pools setup for coins I want to mine. Some pools tend to be more unstable than others and have regular downtime, thus I wanted to setup backup pool(s) for the coin (well, if I can get this working, it'll be even more ideal that I have 1~2 backup pools for every single coin I'm mining)

for Example:

I'm Mining Straks (STAK), setting up coin, and pool for it.

Pool (A) is my main pool of preference, but lately it has been experiencing excessive daily downtime, so I setup Pool (B), both pointing to the exact coin STAK as defined in custom coins.

Now, there are no effect on priority being set here...using either ccMiner, Excavator....the detailed tab for all my miners will have 2 entries for STAK

STAK - Pool(A)
STAK - Pool(B)

both showing same profitability (expected), but the order are different for each miner, some goes B before A, some A before B
so I have a great view of my 1/2 of my miners on A, and half on B, and at every profit switching interval, the order may simply change and I'll do a pool hop on the same coin for no good reason.

Note that I had Pool A's priority set to 0, and B to 10...but like I said, there's no effect.

Is there a way to have AM prioritizing pools rather than relying on mining software?

Ideally, wouldn't it be better to have a consistent ordering of the pools in "Details Tab" across all miners after profit switch calculation round, that taken into account of priorities defined in Pool Groups?

I know a few pages back someone had the same/similar issue, and it wasn't quite resolved either. Could we please have this looked into if possible?

I monitor a bunch of s9's with awesome miner and like it a lot. I am displaying chip temp in the progress column. Would it be possible to add an option that adds color by temp to the individual card temp values? That way at a quick glance I could see if a card is running hotter than normal and research to see if the card has a problem or not. thank you,

Hello Guys,

I will receive some Innosilicon ASICs. Does Awesome Miner working good with them ?
Yes, but in order to enable the API on these miners to allow external applications to connect to them, you must manually follow these steps:

Hi

I have download Awesome Miner. And by default it shows chipTemp1 values of Antminer.

To show the ChipTemp2 values I found that can be done for S9 by clicking “Display Antminer chip temperature in Status column” in the option section. However, that dose not work with T9+ model of antminer.

Anyone knows how to show ChipTemp2 for Antminer T9+ and use it to trigger notification?

thanks

Antminer T9+ is reporting the chip temperature a bit different compared to previous batches. The next update of Awesome Miner will adjust to this.

I'm having an issue with awesome miner and bminer.
I'm trying to read and transform in €/day 2 external miners. I've added them to the miners list (only for reading, no control) and Awesome Miner recognize them and reads the hashes for each card and so on.
The problem is that when I try to specify the coin that I'm mining it tells me: "the mining software is not reporting any pool for this miner"
Is there any way to fix/bypass this? I just want to tell him that I'm mining zcash, so that I can see how much I'm making a day
I have the 4.7.4
Thanks
BMiner doesn't return any Pool-related information when you connect to it over the API (which is the case with your External Miner). Almost all other mining software reports this. Awesome Miner must always map the income to a specific pool, and this is the reason why it isn't working.

It could of course be possible to have a concept where Awesome Miner can link the coin to a specific miner instead of a pool, but that concept isn't available today.

I fully understand the points you both are making here and I agree that this process can be made better. I do have this item on the improvement list already, so the plan is of course to make the user experience better here. Thanks for all feedback.

The idea is to have a concept where you don't have to manually upload and make it more like the automatic download feature where the Remote Agent simply requests the latest version and run it. When a new mining software version is available, it should just be about putting the latest software in a folder and all remote miners should automatically get the latest software. Some configuration in the Options dialog, Managed Software section, will probably be required for the initial setup.

Any other suggestions on this are of course also welcome. Thanks!


That would be a huge start. Eventually I hope you can streamline all the obvious things you'd do next.

For example, if you add/upgrade a piece of software, blank out the benchmarks for the previous version and automatically run benchmarks on the new software for every active profile, and update the profiles with the best miners. I would personally hang this off of the start/stop of a miner - Nicehashminer does this very well IMO. If you try and start it with unbenchmarked algos, itll run the benchmarks prior to mining so its always up to date. Of course you have the option of skipping as well.

The ideal user experience here would be I define a new software, then as soon as I close the window it'll ask me if I want to update profiles, then I click OK and walk away - in my absence it'll automatically do all the things I'd obviously do next, like stop one miner per profile, benchmark the software on each of them concurrently, enable it for an algo if the hash is higher, then restart miners as necessary.

im trying to add BITCORE coin to awesome miner with JSON from whattomine without success, i benchmark the bitcore and timetravel algo but cannot see timetravel10 algo listed
any help will be appreciated

thanks in advance

go Options -> Algorithms -> Add...

and create a TimeTravel10 algorithm

Normally for Yiimp pools, most of them just called it bitcore, but WTM JSON had the algorithm parameter value "TimeTravel10", thus it wasn't able to match in your predefined algorithms so BTX doesn't appear in your Coins Tab.

remember if you are mining with predefined or User defined Online Services, you probably don't have to worry about this at all, but if you are setting up your own pool and want to have the profitability fed thru WTM, then this is the current workaround.

Thanks a lot that worked !
