Can you try to add another action to the same rule? For example to show a Notification as well. By doing that we can figure out if the rule is triggered or not.
Is the Antminer running in Privileged API mode?

Hi,

For a Managed Miner with Ethereum, there is a guide on the web site: http://www.awesomeminer.com/guide/ethereum.aspx. The guide is about Dual mining with Ethereum and Decred, but it's the same concept for Ethereum and Sia.

The basic concept is:
1) Create two pools, one for Ethereum and one for Sia
2) Create a group pool, where you include these two
3) Create a Managed Miner, set to Claymore's Dual Ethereum Miner and Dual Mode to Ethereum + Sia. Set the group pool you defined.
4) Finally you go to the "Command Line" section (in the menu on the left side of the Managed Miner properties dialog), where you enter all your custom parameters, like -gser and so on.

Awesome Miner can of course restart a miner that is failing. Awesome Miner uses the concept of Rules (Options dialog, Rules section) where you have a few build in rules that can be enabled, or you can define your own. An introduction to the Rules can be found on the web site: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/rules.aspx.

With Rules you have trigger, for example that the hashrate is too low, that Accepted isn't increasing or similar. Then you define the action or actions you want for this trigger, for example to restart the miner.

I have antminer S9 , the BMminer version 1.0.0 ..

I want do this rule : when Temperature greater than or equal 67 C stop miner . I try do it in rules tab and I edit (Device temperature ) , in actions tab I add Miner command (stop miner ) . but nothing happened when Temp exceed 67 C and greater ,the antminer still work .How can do this action ?

Your help is awful for this application.. How the heck do I use the commands and add Sia to make this work?  I need this commands in a managed miner.


EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool coinotron.com:3344 -ewal molitar.miner2 -esm 2 -epsw pass2 -dpool "http://sia-eu1.nanopool.org:9980/miner/header?address=

[email protected]" -dcoin sia -allpools 1 -ethi 16 -r 0 -gser 1 -mclock 2200

But when I try to use your managed miner I could not figure out how to setup Sia at all.  Secondly what about the -gser 1 -mclock 2200?

You really need a better tutorial with examples on how to use switches with this managed miner?  This app is useless as an external monitor as it will not restart miner if it hangs.

Any error message? Could you send me the Awesome Miner log file by e-mail? The log file AwesomeMiner.log is located in the folder:
%localappdata%\AwesomeMiner

Microsoft .NET 4.5 is the only prerequisite. Which version of .NET do you have and which version of Windows are you running?

In a basic setup, it looks like this:
[Awesome Miner]
Where you only have Awesome Miner main software that can do both mining and monitoring. It can connect to remote ASIC's as well.

If you want to control a remote control another PC for mining purposes, it looks like this:
[Awesome Miner] <--> [Awesome Miner Remote Agent]
Awesome Miner can connect to many Remote Agents and control the mining on all of them

If you want to access Awesome Miner from a smart phone or another PC, you can use the web interface. This is optional:
[Awesome Miner Web] <--> [Awesome Miner] <--> [Awesome Miner Remote Agent]

In the future there will also be a cloud option...

Hi.

I did following:

triggers: time interval: 0h 3min 0s
actions: notification, change pool --> group x

support manual activation: on
Failover only: no

I found this in details log:
20. 12. 2016 10:09:10.771 [001] [ExternalMiner#4 - Miner 1] Change Pool: Litecoin
20. 12. 2016 10:09:10.771 [001] [E]System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Change POOL GROUP only works when:
- first manually clicking the menu options (then pools are added to miners list)
- doesnt work with rules to add pools to miner list
- changes are gone after miner restart

Change Pool only works when
- first manualy clicking the menu options (then pools are added to miners list)
- works with rules
- changes are gone after miner restart (only works with 3 default miner pools defined in a4)

I hope this helps, maybe someone finds the solution..

It'll install but won't run.  Do I'm sure I have the latest .Net files; are there any other files I need to install?

The remote control feature is what intrigues me. I want to setup a home pc I can remote into for making changes and use this software, as I assume I install the base software on the home pc and can sign into it from another pc anywhere? But I'm still a big confused on that part of it.
I will support the software, and the features are fine, the number of miners is a bit low though. For what people may use.

best software i have ever seen

It sound like we can't do much about that the miner revert back to the preconfigured pool, but you are correct that the rules should work.

If you have a rule with a Miner Command action using "Change pool group", what happens? If you enable "Support manual activation" for the rule, you have an Actions button in the toolbar where you can try to trigger the rule manually. Once you know that is working, we can try to come up with a Trigger to do it automatically

HI,

A4 default settings only have 3 pools option to setup. When using Awesome miner more pools can be added and manual adding/changing of pools works ok.

The problem is when miner restarts itself, all but default 3 pools are active (other pools are gone and profit switching is limited).

Maybe you can help me setup a rule (after miner restarts itself) to add a group of new pools to a miner? Currently only "change pool" rule works automatically and not "add new group of pools".

Regads,

The feature levels are structured in a way that aligns well with what most users require, but it may not be a perfect fit for everyone. The Enterprise Edition (up to 40 miners, $200) that you bring up is actually only adding the Security and Multi-user access control features. That feature is almost never used if you have only a few miners, but instead if you have a larger number of miners where more people are involved.

So if you don't need that feature, but want everything else, you can aim for the Premium Edition (up to 20 miners, $100). Then it's of course possible to discuss what a good price level is. I typically bring up how much people are spending on hardware, like $1500 for a single Antminer S9, where 20 of those will be $30000. If you can afford $30000 for the hardware, paying $100 for the software to monitor them isn't a big deal. If you run 20 computers for GPU mining the hardware cost is of course much lower, but $100 should still be affordable in that scenario.

There are many happy users of Awesome Miner that think it's worth every penny, because the software helps them to save more money than what they payed for the license. Also keep in mind that Awesome Miner is a quite specialized software, it doesn't have a market of millions of people like other software do.

Bitcoin payments were supported earlier this year, but I had to discontinue that support. The payment processor I use right now have plans to support Bitcoin payments, but it has been delayed. I do constantly remind them because it was promised to happen during 2016. I do want to support Bitcoin payments on the web site again. If you are interested in paying the software with Bitcoin, please contact me by e-mail instead and we can sort it out. Thanks for your comments.

That should be possible with the Rules. If you create a Trigger of the type Time, you can select a specific time of the day. Then you add an Action of type Miner Command, and select Change Group Pool.

Cool software, te tiered pricing scheme is pretty frigin aggressive, Really no way to get all the features without dropping $200?

This is pretty much the reason photoshop and other software is pirated so damn heavily.
All for supporting, but even buying the cheaper version to handle a small number of miners, the software is gutted.

Very sad to see

Edit: and you don't accept crypto payments???

Hi Patrike,

It's any way to switch the miner from one pool to another in a group of pools at fixed times??? I have been playing with the rules tab but i don't find the way...

Awesome Miner 2.2.1 has been released

- Performance history improved for low hashrate statistics
- Diagnostics feature for Managed Miners. Can be used if a miner isn't starting properly.
- Improved logging for fault isolation
- Claymore's Zcash Miner 9.1

I'm not familiar with the pool setup on the A4 miner. Is the pool defined in the miner to always possible to override from Awesome Miner? Is there a limitation on the miner itself to not have more than 3 pools defined?

In addition to Nicehash, Awesome Miner can also get coin statistics for WhatToMine and Coinwarz, where the WhatToMine API is available for free. Anything between 10-30 minutes should be fine for profit switching.

I would recommend looking at the official coin thread here on the forum for available Block Explorers. Awesome Miner supports a few explorer API's, and I can add support for more if needed.

Failover-only is a cgminer/sgminer pool setting that is used to indicate that the primary pool should be used all the time, unless it's unavailable.

I've been loving Awesome Miner, Patrike. 

Very much appreciated, Sir!

I humbly bow to what you've accomplished thus far with Awesome Miner.

Keep up the great work, Sir.

Cheers,

David

Hi,

I got profit switching working for different coins by first setting a new pool group. In this group I have excluded the pools defined in default A4 dominator pools setup (otherwise switching doesnt work). When I manualy add this new list of pools to a miner, then switching works ok.

First problem is that when the miner restarts itself, the pool group is not automatically assigned to a miner and switching is limited to 3 pools/coins only.

I have tryed setting a rule:
Trigger: every 10 min (for testing)
Action: Change group pool, but it doesnt work. It only works if I want to change the pool. Is this normal or am I missing something?

My other question is which statistics provider would you recommend and how often in minutes the switching should be checked?

My third question is where can we find block explorer API url list for different wallets info?

What does the failover only mean when in pools setting?

Regards,
