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'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.

this basically makes the software almost totally useless....which is odd as it looks very good and worthy of the price tag, but I'm sure there is a simple explanation if you could respond please.

NOTE: the miner is using the agent installed and added as a full managed miner

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.

very odd

Awesome Miner Version 2.1
- Zcash mining with Claymore's Zcash Miner 4.0.
- 'Generic Miner' is a new type of miner for mining software that doesn't provide any API. Allows the mining process to be started and stopped from Awesome Miner, but no statistics will be provided.
- Chip temperature for Antminer is now presented in ChipTemp1, ChipTemp2 and ChipTemp3 to better support latest batches.
- Zcash coin added to statistics
- X14 algorithm added to profit switcher

How can i configure my AW M to calculate mu ZEC profit?  I even don't have ZEC in COINS
Am I doing something wrong here? Smiley

The Zcash profit calculation requires the latest development version of Awesome Miner. But I will release all Zcash features as part of Awesome Miner 2.1 within a few minutes.

How do you edit imported pools? I typo'ed a few.
Do I have to export , edit, then import?

Cannot do any pool mods/import/enable/disable  with the new antminer s9 autotune. (13.5TH)
If you go to the Options dialog in Awesome Miner, and navigate to the Pool sections, you can add, edit and remove pools. Was it this feature you were looking for?

I have 3 autotune s9's.
One is running 644 644 590 freqs on the gui.

Awesome miner shows 706 706 706. What do you suppose that means? Awesome miner not  quite working with autotune s9's?

fans show 4500/0 on awesome, gui shows 2300/2300

Awesome miner is just.... awesome.
Hi,
The latest batches has changed how some of the Antminer statistics are reported. There are some improvements made in the latest development version of Awesome Miner, and these changes will also be included in Awesome Miner 2.1 that soon will be released.

If you see any inconsistency in the new version, please send me an API report from Awesome Miner (toolbar: Tools -> API Report)

I continue to have some issues with getting some rigs online running.  They come on and it says "Starting" but nothing happens..  In the past I was able to either switch to a Static IP or delete conflicting IP's but now I cannot.

I have looked at the logfile and it says "ChannelFactoryProvider: Channel faulted"

Any ideas on how I can get it going.

Thanks

BTW- it happens on Custom Software Uploads on some rigs
The "Channel faulted" is an indication of communication problem between the application and the remote miner.
Are the miners on the same network or really far away?

In the past the timeout for uploading software was really low, so it would fail if it would take more than 10 seconds. That was however changed to 60 seconds since version 2.0. Could this still be a problem, that the actual software transfer is too slow?

No, it's a scam. I will report it although the post was made a long time ago - thanks for letting me know.

You're welcome, and also one thing. of you can bring back bitcoin as mode of payment when I buy awesome miner. its much easier to pay with bitcoin that's why. hoping... Smiley

Awesome Miner development version 2.0.7 upgrades the Claymore's Zcash miner to version 2.0.

One general question, maybe I am to blind to find it:
Is there an "easy" way to switch between Pools or do I always have to adjust the "Managed Miners" settings (set mining software + pool)?
It would be easier if one could change the pool via right-click on the miner (this is already possible) and the system automatically detects the required Mining Software (maybe assigned to the pool).
Currently I set up a pool in the first step and then set pool + software under the "Managed Miners" part. I think it might be better to assign mining software to pool settings, or am I wrong? (Actually I think I AM wrong since you have more experience with this)
Thanks for your comments! If you switch between pools that can be handled by the same mining software, you can simply use the Switch Pool feature you are referring to.

If you require multiple mining software types because of very different algorithms, you either need to make the change you describe, or simply add another Managed Miner with this configuration. Then you can stop one Managed Miner and start another one to switch between very different configurations.

The pools can actually represent not only a single pool, but also a group of pools in different combinations. Each miner can have a unique set of pool settings, and it's mainly the miner, not the pool, where most operations are performed and statistics collected. This is the main reason why the miner entity is the main concept in Awesome Miner.

Keep up the good work!

Edit:
Just wanted to mention that Mining Equihash on nicehash (BTC Payment) also works fine now!

Thanks for the feedback toptek & FlensGold.

Awesome Miner development version 2.0.6 makes these changes:
- Claymore's Zcash Miner 1.1 supported
- Device Profiles works with with this miner
- Awesome Miner will no longer write to config.txt, but the way Claymore's miners work, it will not be used when started from Awesome Miner, because Awesome Miner needs to be able to set command line arguments when starting the miner, and as soon you have one specified argument, the file config.txt is no longer used by Claymore's miner.

The result of the above is that if you need custom command line arguments to the miner, don't set them in config.txt, but set them in Awesome Miner instead (Managed Miner -> Command Line). It's also important to specify a pool for the Managed Miner. Awesome Miner will, just like int the case of using Claymore's Ethereum miner, only modify the epools.txt file.

If you run into any problems starting the miner, could you please send me the Awesome Miner log file (can be accessed from toolbar: Tools -> Log File). Thanks!

errr Claymore 1.1 is a mess for me i had to reset every thing with it i was using the epools.txt file with it now  awesome keeps over writing that and rewrites conf file sometimes puts in the wrong info, it looks like i have to use the conf file no mater what or not use awesome sigh . or use 1.0 . or im not even sure wtf happen it all started after using 1.1.


NM it was more i DIDN'I know WTF I was doing user error it never ran the thu epools.file with awesome it keep going to the conf file if i use the bat file in the  folder and adjust files and turn off the conf  and unmark or add my pool in epools.txt . it works that way without awesome  but awesome keep using the conf file i know that is user error, i notice setting are also different then using the eth miner from Claymore, i got it working thu awesome with the conf file till i figure out what goes were in awesome for Zec mining or what to use . hope that  made sense what it comes to is i got it working again had to use the conf file like i was all a long .


-zpool us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333
-zwal
-zpsw x
-allpools 1

how i discovered it I tired to turn off the log file with

-dbg -1

thu awesome i don't need all those dam files adding up and no idea why Claymore doesn't shut it off by default or at least set it to log to one file by default , instead of making one every time the miner is used  and note it in the read me with on off flags. i know you can do that now, but make it default . and awesome miner has no control over that .


btw im  not using the default pool awesome miner does rewrite in my pool setting the right way, another user error or misunderstanding .

all because of that Fee that's whole messed part .

"-allpools" option is set, default pools can be used for devfee, check "Readme" file for details.

owell till silent army V5 comes out the software that Claymore's  zec miners  is based off , i l use it I guess or go back to Ubuntu 16 . get the same results using SA v3 fee less. then i can't use awesome sigh .

How do I use Nicehash-Equihash with this version?

These are my parameters: equihash.eu.nicehash.com:3357
Login: BTC_ADDRESS
Pass: x
Coin: Unspecified Equihash

Advanced Tab -> Add: allpools 1

When starting a miner with these parameters it retruns the following lines:
UNKNOWN OPTION -etha
UNKNOWN OPTION -1
UNKNOWN OPTION -gser
UNKNOWN OPTION -1
...
ZEC: No pools specified. Specifiy at least one valid pool in "-epool" Parameter.

It looks like the Device Profile selected for this Managed Miner is configured with some ethereum specific settings (etha = Ethereum Algorithm mode). Can you try to not select any Device Profile for this Managed Miner? I will make sure those settings are not passed to the mining software in next release.
You are right, this seemed to be the cause. But when I set device profile for that miner to "none" (otherwise I could only choose between sgminer/Claymore ETH Miner) the miner does not crash at startup, but is mining on a different pool than I set:eu1-zcash.flypool.org:333
I did not even define that pool (guess it is the default one from claymores config.txt), it does not use the selected pool for the miner.
