Guys I was doing a little reading on this forum and i saw the tutorial about how to gain api acces to antminers etc.. well it can be much simpeler than the whole tutorial. just type behind the password --api-listen --api-allow W:192.168.2.1,W:127.0.0.1 you do that on your (ant)miner and it will do everything awesomeminer tells him to...

This was a really nice way to solve the API configuration on Antminer.

patrike thanks for fixing the zeusminer api thingy...lol but before the fix it would report a lot more statistics from other pools then it does now. dont know if its the fix or if its the pools but on the same site it will report realtime coinstatistics for SHA256 and now not anymore for the scrypt miners.BTW KNCminers are working perfectly with awesomeminer! thumbs up!

is the api wrong or is there something with the program because it all the time doesnt recognize coins that are in the list and there are coins up in the coinlist where the diff is wrong and what its worth is wrong i use this program i even bought it but if i would know all these things in front i would never had bought it most of the time i do my coin switching my self.... i have waited a few updates now but i gonna quit usin g this program as of today this program costed me a fortune on api costs and the program itself and then not to speak over the money i missed by making the wrong coin....... patrike youre a nice guy but pls do something about it(i know u will).
best wishes and good luck with the program

Can you please send me some screenshots and the log file by e-mail, so I can get an understanding of exactly what information that isn't displayed correctly. I will of course work on correcting any issues.

Is there anyway to use the Profit Switching with unmanaged miners??

Yes. Awesome Miner needs privileged API access to the miner in order to prioritize the pools, but it doesn't matter if it's a Managed Miner or an External Miner.

The profit switcher will work for those pools and coins where you can see profit information in Awesome Miner. It will not work for unknown coins (unless you manually enter its profitability) and it will not work for multi-pools that doesn't provide real-time profit statistics. Currently it's only TradeMyBit, NiceHash, Yaamp and LTCrabbit that provides this real-time information, that can be used for profit switching.

I hope it works as good as it looks. Just the kind of thing I was looking for for my rigs. Grin

When I go to the properties of the miner as you instruct, there isn't a button/link to any Options Dialog or Command Line section.

also, how do we as users add to the pools that are listed in the Online Services for the Profit Switching??

Hi,
Sorry if I wasn't clear about this, but the setting is only available for Managed Miners in Awesome Miner (see this link for more info), because this is the only case where Awesome Miner is responsible for starting cgminer.

If you run a stand-alone ASIC for example (Antminer S1 / S3 and similar), the cgminer software is started from that device, and in those cases you need to figure out how to modify the command line in the configuration file for that miner.

Hi,
I just verified that the load balance parameter do work. Go to the Properties of a miner in the Options dialog in Awesome Miner, select the "Command line" section, and then enter the following in the field for parameters to mining software:
--load-balance

If you have two pools with Quota 1 for both, you will get 50% mining on each. If you assign a higher Quota value to a pool, it will get a larger share of mining.

do you add --load-balance in the PARAMS line inside the miner??

Can someone please explain how to get the quota to work. I have two pools for my miners. I first set the quota to 50 on each thinking it'd mine each of them 50% of the time. Nothing happened after 24hrs so I started researching and most sites said cgminer and bfgminer used numbers between 0-9 to set the quota. Setting 1 and 9 would be 10% and 90% so I tried that as well. After 24hrs still mining the same pool. Could someone please shed some light on how I can make my miners switch pools on a given percentage or time using Awesome Miner.

Can you try to add the the following command line parameter to your miner?
--load-balance
I think that will enable the quota-feature.

Does this software have the ability to schedule mining based on times? As in, running miners only at nights and weekends when the computers are not in use?

Yes, you can use the Rules in Awesome Miner to define all this. The Rules can be defined in the Options dialog and uses the concepts of Triggers and Actions. You can define Triggers that trigger a specific time and/or day. You can also define Actions that will be performed when the rule is triggered, for example to start or stop mining.

Also, is Cryptonite planned as a future upgrade?

Is it the Claymore miner? I don't think that one provides any API, so the amount of information displayed in Awesome Miner would be very limited and only based on the parsed console output.

If not, would running a local script on the computer that both schedules the miner to launch when the computer is idle (for let's say 30 minutes) and then kill the ccminer process when the computer is used/mouse moved/etc? I have this currently running on systems to mine using ccminer when not in use. Would this software have issues with the miner being launched and killed on the local system?

i see, does it already come pre configured for these pools
also i see waffle pool is there, but its my understanding wafflepools API doesnt show CURRENT/LIVE Profitaiblity

You can read more about the Awesome Profit Switching feature and find pre-configuration for the pools on the web site. Just let me know if you have any questions.

You are correct about Wafflepool. Awesome Miner will show the statistics and profitability when you mine on Wafflepool, but it will not be part of the actual profitability switching because their statistics are based on 24h intervals.

how does this compare to 'MinerControl' or do they both pretty much do the same thing, similar payouts?

MinerControl is a basic tool that can stop and start miners on your local computer based on profitability of a few multi-pools.

Awesome Miner is much more powerful than that, and can do profit switching for pools on both local and multiple remote miners, without having to stop and start the miners. The profit switcher in Awesome Miner doesn't only support several auto switching multi-pools, but can also switch to mine specific coins if they are more profitable than the multi-pools. This makes it possible for Awesome Miner to always give the highest payouts.

By using Awesome Miner you can monitor and manage all your mining rigs from a single application, and see the hash rates, progress, current profitability and perform mining, pool and device operations. You can for example get desktop or e-mail notifications if there are any issues with the mining, and Awesome Miner will also automatically restart a miner that has crashed.

You can find more details about all the features in Awesome Miner on the Awesome Miner web site. It's much more than a tool for just starting and stopping a miner.
