you need to use cron tab format and i use different cgminer configs,

here is an example of what i use

Code:

#copy underclock cgminer config, restart cgminer    @ 6:55am mon-sat
55 6 * * 1-6 cp /etc/cgminer-uc /etc/cgminer.conf && /etc/init.d/cgminer restart

but you need to download win scp and use it to login , download the cgminer file

copy it / rename it so you have the original ,

change the settings in it and save it, MAKE SURE WHEN YOU SAVE IT DONT SAVE IT AS .TXT

you can rename it in win scp program

here is a sample cgminer file

Code:

{
"bitmain-use-vil":true,
"overclock":"0.80",
"api-port":"4028",
"pools":[{"user":"xxxxxxx","url":"stratum+tcp://btc.s.novablock.com:443","pass":"","_id":"1"},
{"_id":"2","url":"stratum+tcp://btc.s.novablock.com:1883","pass":"","user":"xxxxxxx"},
{"user":"xxxxxx","url":"us.ss.btc.com:1800","pass":"","_id":"3"}],
"bitmain-freq":",,,,,",
"no-pre-heat":true,
"fan-temp":"75",
"api-allow":"W:0\/0",
"bitmain-voltage":",,,,,",
"config-format-revision":"1",
"api-listen":true,
"multi-version":"4",
"fan-ctrl":"temp"
}

The only problem he is using Braiins OS but maybe it will also work on default s9 firmware. Just try

Both firmware are based on CGminer , so all CGminer commands should "technically" work just fine on any version , unless bitmain disabled that for a reason, which is unlikely.

OP can you please post the exact command you are trying you use?

When i check MinerConfiguration - all data is null (URL=null, worker=null, pass=null)

does this happen after

Code:

sched-stop

or after

Code:

sched-start

Would these cgminer commands work on an S9 running Braiins OS?
How would I set them? edit a file with terminal?

--sched-start Set a time of day in HH:MM to start mining (a once off without a stop time)
--sched-stop Set a time of day in HH:MM to stop mining (will quit without a start time)

Probably /etc/cgminer.conf
{(the_rest_of_the_options),"sched-start":"07:00","sched-stop":"18:00"}

Don't forget to restart cgminer with /etc/init.d/cgminer reload

The only problem he is using Braiins OS but maybe it will also work on default s9 firmware. Just try

Hi!
sched-stop option for cgminer (Antminer S9) works fine, but sched-start is not working.
When i check MinerConfiguration - all data is null (URL=null, worker=null, pass=null)
What is wrong ?
