Topic: [Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners - page 629. (Read 703343 times)

Hi,
I've actually never tried CPU mining with Awesome Miner. Which CPU mining software are you using? Some of them have cgminer like API's that can be enabled that Awesome Miner can connect to.

Hi Everyone,

I'm curious if anyone has ran across the following when GPU mining with RX 480's with Awesome Miner:

All of my R9 Fury rigs and R9 380 rigs have no problem displaying the GPU temps, hash rate, etc...  You will notice in the following image link that I have Rig #17 highlighted in grey up top and in the window at the bottom you see each GPU with their Fan speed percentage, Temperature, etc... Which see:

In this next screen shot, you will see I have Rig #14 high lighted.  Yet, it does not display the temperature of Rig #14 in the top window like the other Rigs and it does not display the GPU's in the bottom window with their fan speed, hash rate, temperature, etc... Which see:

Rig 14 is a rig made up of 6 x RX 480's.  I have two more rigs of RX 480's I'm in the process of putting together.  I'm just wondering if there is something I'm doing wrong that is keeping the temps from posting in Awesome miner as well as keeping the GPU's from being listed in Awesome miner?

Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT:  I have been up the entire night.  It is now 7:27am CST.  I may be sleeping when someone answers this post.  Please be patient for me wake up later to view any replies to my post.

Thanks in advance...

Alright, so at the risk of seeming a bit dense, say I wanted to mine yescrypt on Zpool using CPU.  How would I go about setting that part up?
I have ASIC's running there and it does well so I got that part figured out and I'm fairly certain I can get the GPU portion of it working but the CPU has me stumped.

First about your initial question about Zpool. It should work with Awesome Miner. On their web site I can see the following instructions:
stratum+tcp://.mine.zpool.ca: -u [-p ]

In Awesome Miner this should be added as a Pool with the following settings, where I will use X11 algorithm as an example:
Server URL: stratum+tcp://x11.mine.zpool.ca:3533
Worker name: (your bitcoin wallet address)

Auto profit switching is not supported for Zpool. I couldn't find an API on their web site, which would be required in order for Awesome Miner to support it.

To answer your question about ASIC / GPU and so on. Awesome Miner doesn't care too much about this as long as you use it together with a Cgminer style miner API (or Sgminer, Claymore's Ethereum, ccMiner). You can for sure connect to many different systems and get a good overview of the mining from a single user interface.

Please try the free version of Awesome Miner to see if it works well for the features you are looking for.

I agree, so I reported that post to a moderator and it has been removed now.
I don't recommend anyone to download Awesome Miner from strange web sites. It probably contains all sorts of virus and ransom-ware.

Please make sure that you only download Awesome Miner from the official web site.

Well that post seems highly suspicious

Agreed.  My thoughts on it are simply this.  If you're going to have a program that is dedicated to mining, then you should have the option to mine anything with whatever is at your disposal.  Asic, GPU, CPU, FPGA, etc...  To see that show up in Awesome Miner would be all the conviction I'd need to make a purchase.  As it is, I'm using Miner Control for CPU / GPU mining and while it does a great job, I'd much rather centralize it all in a single App.  If Awesome Miner does this, then that's the goto app for me. 

I know there are some custom scripts you can load in to try it but im not to sure if they work with the free version on awesome miners site but to set up and edit you own i might wrong you will need the  Premium version at least  it's telling me i need the  Premium version i have the Pro version i don't mind paying for it either.

awesome should let you cpu mind with np  but I'm not to sure the limits of the free version beyond whats listed, some things are all ways over looked or not listed.


I'm Guessing at this point !!! .

At the moment, free.  I would be ok with purchasing the premium but I want to make certain it's going to work with my setup.  More than that, I would love to get it to work with CPU mining as there are a handful of coins that are profitable with CPU mining.  If I can get that part to work, I'll be getting a paid edition for sure.

@Percivul

what level of awesome miner do you have to start with free version , Pro ?. to use the auto-switching fully were you can set up your own custom scripts you need the Premium edition which I'm about to upgrade to it looks like I'll need that part soon .

@ patrike
all Avalon miners use a well written version of CGminer that actually is put into the master version of CGminer over what bitmain does , I'm not to sure with the S9, i know the s7 is forked and they won't put it in the master version like they will with the Avalon version .

I can say the A4.1 work well with awesome , I'll know in a few days if the A6 does just bought one it won't be here till around Wednesday 24 th, as for A7 if i get the cash to gather for one either at release or shortly after I'll let you know if no one else has by then, I'm sure some one will.

Hey guys, first let me say that if this has already been asked and answered, I apologize.  I DID look through but didn't seem to find my answer.

Ok, so I want to setup Awesome miner to do some CPU / GPU mining on ZPool but I don't quite know how to go about setting up the auto-switching and whatnot.

Does anyone have a config file for ZPool that they've setup they'd be willing to share?  I can at least then see what was done in order to get it to work with ZPool and can probably go from there, but I'm kind of at a loss as to where to start.

Thanks in advance and happy hashing!

Thanks for your comments on this. Hopefully they will run a standard compliant Cgminer API that will just work out of the box with Awesome Miner.
If anyone get access to this miner, please give it a try with Awesome Miner and send me an API report if there are any issues. Thanks!

If I manage to get the fan speed feature to work, it will be verify similar to the frequency feature and will probably be in the same dialog. I will also require the Professional Edition.

These changes requires a restart of the cgminer/bmminer process on the miner for the changes to take effect, but it's not a complete reboot of the entire miner. You will get a 30 second interruption in the mining progress, but if you do it only a few times per day, it no big deal.

I have two ideas on the fact that miners revert back to Restricted mode.
1) I'm working on a feature where Awesome Miner automatically will detect Antminer S7 and S9 in Restricted mode and automatically configure them for Privileged mode. It doesn't matter if you reboot the miners, restore firmware or simply buy and connect new miners - as soon as Awesome Miner see that they run in Restricted mode, they will be automatically set to Privileged mode.
2) I think some Antminer versions have a firmware default configuration file. It could be an option to investigate if Awesome Miner can work on that one as well, so a simple reboot doesn't revert backt o Restricted mode. I'm not sure if I want Awesome Miner to interact with this part of the Antminer.

Yes I am very interested to try out the new version!
My plan is to set frequency & fan higher at night, and lower during the day.

@ patrike
you might have even more subs coming the Avalon 7 may release next month right now it's guessing but one is coming  they put up new software support for it a few days ago an it run off of orange PI's which run better then rasp berry and are a lot cheaper to buy depending on which one.

enjoy i guess .

https://twitter.com/canaanio  they keep saying watch twitter it will be posted there first .!!!

I'm not a big fan of bitmain any more !!!

it'll work just like freq adjustment but miner will have to go thru a soft reboot.

will this feature be available for dev version or still have to pay ?

sob sob no budget

for the older version fw of s7, it's just like the s9's, will change to restricted after a reboot n will have to overwrite again unless during boot time it's been over writen to give access to all privilleges

I think I have an idea how to implement fan speed control in Awesome Miner as well, without too much effort. I'm not sure which versions of Antminer it will actually work on, but please let me know if you would be interested in trying a development version of the feature within a week.

Changing the frequency is no problem - I have the miner at my work and want it to be quiet during the day so I need to turn down the frequency to get cooler temps at low fan speed.
The fan is not automatic, so nothing will change at lower/higher frequency.

The reason I purchased this program was for these two reasons.

Maybe there is another way to control fan other than creating a new program?
I do not know much about SSH/API but I have been looking hard for a way to do it.

Thanks,

Hi,
There is a guide on the web site how to setup scheduling of Antminer frequency changes:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/antmineroperations.aspx

Changing fan speed is currently not supported, but could possibly be added if there are any interest for it.
How is the S7 reacting to a lower frequency - will it automatically lower the fan speed because of the lower heat?

Can the fan speed  of my antminer s7 be put on a schedule?
I bought this program so the fan speed and frequency could be on a timer
