hello Patrik

our mine is in Venezuela and temps here is our main concern because of our warm climate...we run industrial grade ventilation on our warehouse....our miners usually run in the high 60's in the daytime and sometimes peak on the low 70s for a couple of hours on hot days at noon. we would like the protection to trigger in the rare case of a ventilation failure on our warehouse to protect the miners...since we don't have a dedicated staff there all the time.

do you have any more info on the overheat protection rule.....I see it defaults at 96 degrees, it seems quite high for Antminers, antminers are supposed to stop hashing at 80 deg, but i've seen them reach 80 deg and stay at 80 in the past , look like they don't really to stop working when they reach 80 deg with their built in overheat protection in the firmware ....any recommendations?

thanks in advance

patrike-
I have an issue I hope you can make a suggestion on, I am running a batch file that calls Claymores Zcash Miner. It works great except that I am using "Custom Software Upload" to include the batch file (that I have converted to a .exe) so I can select it from the Awesome Miner Properties>Path

It opens perfectly but as the Miner is starting (because of a delay I suspect from the .exe) it attempts to stop the Miner and restart it. It does not close the miner but actually closes the .exe I guess. Then it restarts the miner and the cycle continues until I have a bunch of open windows.

Is there a way to extend the length of time Awesome Miner waits before attempting to restart?

Awesome Miner is looking at the process ID of the started process and makes sure that process keeps running. When you first launch a batch file, that launches another process for the mining, it may not be possible for Awesome Miner to know if the mining is actually running.

What is the reason for having the batch-file? You can specify command line parameters directly for a Managed Miner in the "Command Line" section.

Is there any way to define a coin in an active way (as the included in the software, that are automatically updated) and not only with a btc per hash estimation or an static value, difficulty?? For any reason in user defined coins program seem to be tied to the defined profitability in the coin tab and when difficult increases and dollars per day value decreases it has a lot of problems to make a pool switch, in my opinion principal weak point of this software.

Awesome Miner needs to get the difficulty from somewhere. By default Awesome Miner get statistics from WhatToMine.com, where you for example will see coins like Zclassic (some Zcash clone?). You can select the Zclassic coin for pools in Awesome Miner, although this coin isn't included in Awesome Miner itself. The included coins will have an icon.

In addition to above, you can of course create your own coins and define a static value, difficulty and so on, as you already tried. Some mining software like Cgminer/Sgminer can report current difficulty, and you can configure Awesome Miner to try to get the difficulty from the pool itself while mining (Options dialog -> Coins -> Statistics -> "Revenue calculations bas on network difficulty from: Pool"). Is this the feature you are looking for?

The s9 eBay hacker struck twice in the last two days.
$1500 with psu and free one day ship.
They are using a stack of hacked dormant accounts.
Turns out you can try to login as them and ask for password reset using email or text.
If you poke the real owner several times this way they will discover their account is hacked.

Is it also possible to monitor Zec optiminer with this tool?

Claymore's Zcash Miner is the only supported Zcash miner

Hi,
I got an update notification so I updated awesome miner.
however the notification keeps coming up, it doesn't matter how many times I update there's always a "new" update.
Anyone else having this problem?

Hi,
Which version do you have according to Menu -> About?
Is the upgrade working better if you manually download and install the latest version from the website?

Thanks for the ZEC update, but my RX 480 8GB are reporting in AwesomeMiner with hashrates of kH/s instead of H/s for ZEC using Claymore no matter the version. My 290x on the same rig reports just fine. If I was making that rate, I'd love it, but could you figure out why it's reporting kH/s on the RX cards only?

I agree that this looked strange. I have tested with a 280X and an old 7850 and both report correct H/s information, not kH/s.

Could you please send me the API report for the miner that reports incorrect information? Select the miner and go to the toolbar: Tools -> API Report. I think the information reported from the Claymore software is incorrect in this case, but I would like to verify that.

Cannot remove/add pools with s9.
Cannot restart with s9.

Hi,
Is the Antminer API running in Restricted mode or Privileged mode? You should be able to see that on the Summary tab.

More information on API privilege settings, and how Awesome Miner can configure it automatically for Antminers:

Cool, got it.
Started to freak me out, all the miners rebooted/restarted one after the other.
All enabled Privileged mode now.
Man this is a slick tool.
Worth every penny.

Hi patrike,

Is it explained in any place how the software choose the maximum profit pool/coin to mine? I have the impression it's not able to change the pool in an optimum way when I mine user defined X11 coins in my baikal. When mining only in multicoin pools (nicehas, zpool, ltcrabbit,...) it seems to work perfect instead.

Thanks

I had some discussion with another user about Baikal miner and I think the conculsion back then was that the Baikal miner didn't support chaning algorithm at the same time the pool was changed. Since then I've also seen discussions about updated firmware for Baikal that could address this.

What happens if you manually try to do 'Change pool' from a X11 pool and to X13 pool using Awesome Miner, while the mining is running? Does that operation work on the Baikal?

Sorry, unfortunately, very very unfortunately, I cannot answer you that question. If any day I can, I will try and send answer to you immediately.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/baikal-miner-update-problem-read-if-you-are-going-to-buy-a-baikal-1677686

My question is easier, is there any parameter we could play with to try to force the software to check if the mined coin continues being the most profitable and change of pool if necesary (always mining he same algo X11 in this case)?

I have a lot of shitcoins defined in the coin menu, and I have the impression when suddenly a coin diff increases a lot the software tends to continue mining it, at least if it is an user defined coin and in the coins page with the info supplied by the user the coin continues being the most profitable.

Salute

In order to use Awesome Profit Switcher, you need to enable it in the Options dialog, Rules section. See: http://www.awesomeminer.com/guide/awesomeprofit.aspx

However, the miner itself must support change of both pool and algorithm for this feature to work. This is where I'm not sure if the Baikal miner will support these operations.

what am I missing, when I setup a zcash pool the box to add in a wallet addr is blocked out.

Note: I found you make the RIG name the wallet plus Rig name

I find it odd you would make the worker name a property of the pool and not the miner.

by making it the pool property you can not name the rigs different workers and pass up to the pool which is silly, you are removing the basic options of the miner by doing this.

the Rig should have a worker Name and that's able to report up to the pool per rig and provide the wallet address on the pool config.

Hi,

For most miner types (zcash just happens to be an exception right now), you have access to the 'Advanced' settings for the miner, where you specify a 'Worker suffix' that will be appended after the worker name. So if the pool is configured with a worker name 'MyWorker', and you give a miner the suffix '1' and another miner the suffix '2', the worker name being used for the miners will be MyWorker.1 and MyWorker.2.

For the Zcash miner type that just was introduced, I do see that the Advanced section of the miner configuration is disabled, simply because most settings doesn't apply. What I will look at for next release is to move this setting to make it more visible and also accessible for zcash mining. Thanks for the feedback

I'm struggling with the following setup which is fairly basic and odd that its either not working or just pain to setup

AutoStart Miner after miner reboot.

Things tried:
Rule
Trigger: Detect offline + Detect miner API connection established
Match all

Actions:
Notification
Wait 15s
Start miner

Expected result : Miner starts after reboot, power loss, BSOD or any thing else that would cause the miner to reboot/power down and up again.

Actual result: miner never starts automatically

Manually running the rule results in the miner starting.

First of all, there are two types of Remote feature. Remote Agent and Remote Service. More info here: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/remoteagent.aspx

The option 'Autostart miner' should automatically start a Managed Miner as soon as the Remote Agent/Service is started. However, if you are using the Remote Agent option, you need to have automatic login configured in Windows, otherwise Remote Agent will not start, and the mining will not automatically start. You find information about this on the link above.
