Topic: [DIY] auto-hard-reset mining rigs with Raspberry Pi - page 3. (Read 8492 times)
Any help from anyone?
Can someone help/guide me to set this up on raspberry pi3, i have purchased the relay switch and have connected it to the appropriate gpio pins as shown in the diagram.

Look at the config.json file. In this file is where you setup the IP address and the GPIO pin that it's connected to. Find a pin-out of your pi3, select some GPIO pins and match them up in your JSON file.
I have setup the following -
GPIOI 39 - GND – Red
GPIO 16 (pin36) – IN1- Yellow >>>>>>> MiningRig01
GPIO 12 (pin32) – IN2 – Green >>>>>>> MiningRig02
GPIO 36 – IN3 – Orange >>>>>> Free
GPIO 29 – IN4 – Blue >>>>>>>>> Free
GPIO 4 - VCC – Black
What pins do I need to connect between motherboard and the switch
I have configured the config.json as follows (what other changes do i need to make to this) –
{
"WaitSeconds": 1800,
"StartupCheck" : true,
"Log" : true,
"RemoteNotify" : false,
"TgBotActivate" : false,
"TgAPIKey" : "API-KEY",
"TgAdminUserName" : "USERNAME",
"Pushover": false,
"PushoverToken": "ACCESS-TOKEN",
"PushoverUser": "USER-TOKEN",
"Miners": [
{ "Name": "machine 0", "Pin": "36", "Ip": "192.168.0.16", "Info": "MiningRig01" },
{ "Name": "machine 1", "Pin": "32", "Ip": "192.168.0.38", "Info": "MiningRig02" },
]
}
How do i configure the raspberry pi with this config? i have seen mention of "Go" ?

I just messed with this for probably five hours (learning curve). I got it up and going now though, at least half, really awesome idea and it may or may not be "that difficult" for someone already experienced. It's a massive help here. So, thanks! I have been meaning to dive into a micro controller for a while, figured now is a good spot to start.
Now I just keep getting an error "Problem with the API key. Fix the problem or disable the TelegramBot from the config file" seems like the api key (around 32 letters/numbers) is correct to me..... I'll mess with it later
Ok, made it past that, now when I send a message from my phone to the bot it just says you're not my master. Skimming through the code it seems it checks something and says this before it can go further. So that's what I'm working on now, step by step pretty good learning experience.
Journey continues, bot now accepts commands, bot name, vs username changes, and everything else lol.
So, a question: Is telegram suppose to send me a message when a rig goes down? I looked through the code some more and I don't think it does currently, but I can't be sure lol
OK, Pushover notifications worked lol

Worth mentioning that the (most excellent) developer has used physical GPIO pinout definitions in the Go code.
(I started using BCM, which obviously didn't work)
Make sure you're using the right ones! Handy guide: https://tr.pinout.xyz/

Good job!
I run it on Orange Pi Pc, but it cannot run relay signal on PIN 40
Please help me

Excellent spot! Idiot here had downloaded your first version. Spent hours checking the code thinking I'd missed a space or something...duh.
Really appreciate the help - Telegram remote is up and running!
Just have to test the relays and I'll be in business... Thanks again!

What version did you download?
Is it the one from "release" pages or vie bin folder in the source?
When you start the tool, you should see message in the terminal like this:
12:18:04.231 ▶ NOTIC 00b ▶ TelegramBot Authorteleized on account XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Thanks for the response! I've set tg activate to true, and I'm not getting any errors - altho my log files appear to be blank/empty. They're being created, but not filled.
This is my config:
"WaitSeconds": 60,
"Log": true,
"StartupCheck": true,
"TgBotActivate": true,
"TgAPIKey": "xxxx"
"TgAdminUserName": "xxxxx",
"Miners": [
I'm clearly missing something basic!

Hello, did you change the tgactivate config.json option to true?
Also do you see any errors in the config file when you start the tool?
If you wrote everything correctly in the config you should see information in the log, or if there is problem with the api you will see error too.

Great project folks! On the telegram side, I've created a bot, and added the api key and admin details to the config file. I see there's a list of commands here: https://github.com/Kasmetski/auto-hard-reset/commit/0c370ced9ffe2c7156d353b83e66333082d67f99
but nothing seems to work. Is there another activation step I've missed? Thanks in advance...

I can preffer ubnt mpower , just add proper crontab script and thats all. You get power meter here also.
Did you try to put the file and config here "~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart"?
I've been trying to make the script run on start up, but I am kind a lost. Has anyone done it?
Just so that someone does not get lost like me 
The config.json file that needs to be edited is located in the /bin folder.

Hello, I'm back after some shitty things happened IRL and I will try to be more active in the forum.
II need to click mail notifications for this thread but If you need something urgent you can always find me on twitter with the same name.
'm starting to answer question I see.
After that edit the config file with the bot-username and api key.
About the web interface I will be happy if someone make it.
First I need to refactor the code a little bit and make everything in modules,
The download link is going to archlinux? But I can guess you ask about the Release page?
If yes, the only difference between Release archive and /bin/ directory in the repo is the second one is latest build from code but have some bugs. Binary files in the release page are older and don't have Telegram and Pushover integration.
If you need some help

Might you kindly provide more information about the telegram interface ?
I can help to improve some features in the project such as web interface and dashboards...
Be more specific? I will describe in general.. you need to make a Telegram bot. Write to BotFather https://telegram.me/botfather and follow the instructions there.I can help to improve some features in the project such as web interface and dashboards...

Sorry for the super noob questions but when you say:
Are you saying to download an archive from here: https://archlinuxarm.org/about/downloads ?
And then when you say:
Are you referring to the folder of the downloaded archive? Or are you referring to a folder in the repo?
Quote
Depending of your Raspberry Pi version, download one of the archives arm6 - (Raspberry Pi A, A+, B, B+, Zero) arm7 - (Raspberry Pi 2, 3)
Are you saying to download an archive from here: https://archlinuxarm.org/about/downloads ?
And then when you say:
Quote
Open the folder from the console and type (example with arm7)
Are you referring to the folder of the downloaded archive? Or are you referring to a folder in the repo?

Sorry, I don't use Telegram, so I can't help... not a helpful post... I know. 
Kind of disappointed from the lack of support in this thread, but it is what it isSorry, I'm not the developer, nor do I use Telegram. You might try to PM the developer.
Figured it out by myself by now. I PM'ed the developer a long time ago.
