Yes, please follow these instructions:

You could try to add the -p d=64 or whatever difficulty parameter you wanted in the Command Line tab of your managed Profit Miner settings.

Yes, go to the Command Line tab in your managed miner settings and there is a section to run a batch file before starting the miner.

I agree with the above suggestion. Perhaps to enhance the dashboard with more pertinent information.
 
- include 30 minute / 1 hour running hash rate average in both the dashboard and miners view (place it below the 5 second average). Could also have it as an option that users can choose a selected interval
- option to save algorithm hash rate every X minutes based on a current running average. With 10+ miners it gets busy trying to save average hash rates manually.


List miners view
--option to add the pool name directly under the miner name/local (as someone who mines multiple pools it is the only reason I select the miner pool tab)
--option to add windows uptime directly under the status where the algorithm uptime is displayed (only reason I select the miner summary tab)

Yiimp pools
any way to automatically pull in each fee per algorithm for profit switching

Naming workers: How can identify separate miners in Yiimp dashboards that use the same bitcoin address for a worker name? I assume I have to adjust the stratum configuration so it would display the text under the extra column in the worker dashboard yiimp uses.

Keep up the good work. After 1.5 weeks of using the program, I paid for the professional version.

Edit profit profile, scroll down and you should see the new miner. Click configure, add the path. You also have to place the miner up in priority using the arrows above any other miner that has that same algorithm enabled.

Can someone specify how to add mining software for awesome miner to use?  I downloaded version of ccminer that uses Xevan,  I put in appdata/local/awesomeminer and I added a user defined managed software, but nowhere can I find where you specify the path to the software so it knows to use it.

You know I rather like this product so far, but one thing that bothers me is that as a pay product, I would expect that the algorithms would be fairly up to date.  Someone shouldn't be buying the product and then having to go through multiple pools and adding in algorithms in 3 different places.  I also think there should be a database built into the product to specify the card or cards you are using so you don't have to go to each algorithm and put in a power figure. 

Finally and maybe I just can't figure it out, but why does the dashboard not show profit after power costs like the miner screen does? and it would also be nice if it could calculate how much you might make per day between the different algorithms it has mined instead of just showing whatever is currently being mined.

Just my suggestions.

Thanks

Is there a way to set the initial difficulty in managed profit miner? Some pools accept this value in the password but there is no password entry in managed profit miner.

It's totally up to you to decide, it really depends on your own mining strategy.  Some people will say you should mine the current hottest coin, as you stand to gain the most if you can get it exchanged fast enough.  If you have a very large amount of hashrate, then this may work.  But if you think about it... it's probably not going to work.

Let's say you switch to mine a coin that has a 2 minute block time on say Zpool.  You mine your share, and you get a percentage of the reward for that block.  But now, you have to wait for say 10 confirmations to mature before it's sent to the exchange.  That's now 20 minutes you are waiting for the coin to mature before it gets sent to the exchange.  Now, let's say it's a mildly popular coin, and it's gets sent to the exchange... minimum 2 minutes of that coin's block time if Zpool has enough of that coin built up to make it worth their while to send to the exchange.  We are up to 22 minutes.  That transaction is going to take another 10 confirmations before the exchange makes it available to trade.  We are now up to 42 minutes.

What are the chances that your coin is worth the same amount when you started mining it until it reaches the point where it can be traded on the exchange 42 minutes later?  Not very likely.  There are thousands and thousands of miners that use auto-switching algorithms and were mining the same coin you thought was hot in that moment.  That shoots up the difficulty, and the massive dump on the exchange(s) sends the value of the coin down.

A 24 hour profitability evens out those nuances, and I would even argue that a longer period is necessary.  You want to be mining a coin that is consistently in the top spot... not in the moment.

But, this is my opinion... there are other perspectives.

Do most people use 24 hour profitability under statistics or current profitability for deciding when to switch?

Awesome! This could be great idea of having a powerful miner.

I had looked at that, but I just checked it again and that helped. I got it working thanks!

What mining software does the Avalon 741 use?  Have you looked at this page for some clues?  http://awesomeminer.com/help/minerapi.aspx

It's a false positive.  It has already been reported a couple of pages back.

No hidden fees.  It's only if you use a mining program that has fees, and of course your pool's fee.

You can do a brute force method.  Make individual pools for all the coins from yiimp, specifying the coin for each pool.  If AM doesn't have the coin built in, then you'll have to manually add them.  Then put all those pools in a pool group and use the profit miner to mine the custom pool group.

It's a bit of work, but it would work.  I did it for all the Suprnova pools so I could profit switch between all the coins they offer.

If you right-click the profit miner and select view details, you can see timestamps related to the switching interval, and the most profitable coins at that time.

The true profitability comes from your pool.  AM can only estimate based upon your hashrate, the difficulty of the coin, and exchange rate at that time.

I'm using 4.3.1.
When I go to the pool configuration using the web interface, it is empty and there is a red circle with a line through it when I hover over any of the three buttons.  Is this intended behavior?

I installed the latest version (4.3.1) and Windows is coming about Trojan:Win32/Azden.A!cl in file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Awesome Miner\PE.Infrastructure.dll.

Any thoughts?

AM is just a management software for your miners, it can interact with many of the available mining software (of which some takes fees such as Claymore), your mining speed/performance depends on your hardware and how you configured the mining software that AM interact with. AM is free to use for up to 2 miners (2 mining software instances controlled by a single running AM instance) and if you need more miners or extra features included in the paid version, it's a one time lifetime license and tiered into how many miner license you need as well as the ability to have AM interact with MSI afterburner, c# scripting, long term performance report ... etc, a paid license is also required if you wish to use the cloud service (which will incur extra ongoing subscription). All the above info are available on AM's website.

TL:DR;
AM has no hidden fees, and no hidden mining itself, performance and profitablilty is depend on how you set it up to work with your set of mining softwares (if any)
IF you really really don't want to pay a cent or simply am trying out, the developer is kind enough to offer free version of license (2 miners per AM, thus per rig) for you to carry out your mining operation or test the features.

AM's true power is the ability to monitor and control large amount of miners...so if you have the requirement to go beyond 2 miners and want a single place to monitor your entire farm, it's well worth considering purchasing the license.

Did you manually specify the algo/coin to mine on zPool? AM v4.3 added x17 to default yiimp pools that supports them and my rigs were mining them no problems, prior to the update, all I had to do is add entries to User Defined Online Services for it to work. Someone mentioned earlier that if you had manually specified these algos/online services prior to the update, you might need to remove the user defined ones manually to avoid conflict, other than that, just need to specify in the pwd field to make sure you are paid out in XVG and username is your XVG address?
