Make sure you only access the spondoolies box over https otherwise you are passing the credentials in clear text.

That is a good point. I wonder how many people actually put https when checking their remote machines?

My remote devices are only accessible via my IP, and https doesn't work. Not sure if that's a Bitmain limitation, or a host limitation. (I don't have any spondoolie hardware remote just yet.)

If you need any to play with let me know. I only have two SP20s atm, but I love them, and would enjoy helping to grow any compatibility for them and your software. I offer help with no strings.

Here's version 4.7. It adds HTTPS support for non API use.

This probably does not work with Bitmain hardware, and may not work with all hosting configurations for Spondoolie hardware.

Thank you so much for this app. very useful.
can u fix the log page scroll bar? there is no scroll bar in log page and it's hard to review log!
and there is any chance to add mobileminer api ?

What version are you using? I have a scroll bar here. Every so often visual studio messed up and that control gets resized outside of its bounds, so the scrollbar isn't visible. But I'm pretty sure it's there right now.

I intend to look at mobileminer sometime in the future. Not sure when at this point.

Thanks.

spondoolies works over http AND https by default

Natted and firewalled but still I access via https

Yes, I see that my SP20 supports HTTPS. That leads to cert errors, which I can work around programmatically.

Thanks for the tip.

Here's v4.6.

v4.6
- Enables alerts on XCount for Spondoolie units. This value is populated when using the Web monitoring for a Spondoolie unit.
- Fixes a potential memory leak.

Here's version 4.5 .

This version fixes web scraping for S1-S3 units, and adds web scraping support for S4s and Spondoolie units.

To use this functionality, make sure your web port and web credentials are set correctly, AND "use API" is turned off.

This means you can monitor your remote Spondoolie units!

I still only have access to an SP20. I'd really appreciate someone with other SP units trying this and letting me know the results.

Is there a method to have an S5 and or SP20 stop mining completely during certain times/days ?
I'm wanting it to kick on when I'm not home or asleep already then turn off during the day.
Will be very nice during the summer as well.

It's theoretically possible. I'd have to try it to see what would happen. I know there's a way to disable cgminer via the API, but the miners might have a "watchdog" in them that will notice cgminer is idle and restart it.

M

There is actually such watchdog in the Bitmain products. I wanted to cool down my machines by executing some kind of "cgminer stop ; sleep 600 ; cgminer start" every once in a while but couldn't stop them more than... well I think it was 3 minutes.

I guess to achieve the sleep feature, the API only won't be enough.

Maybe disabling all the pools would work?

M

Hey, good idea! Just temporarily adding some extra character at the end of the pool URL (ie. www.pool.comq) would make it marked as dead and if the miner has no pool to mine, it will stop mining. There you go!

That would do it too! Keep in mind it may still trigger the watchdog. I haven't been able to set the p2pool info via the API and have it "stick", so a watchdog would bring it back.

Here's v4.4. I posted this earlier but it got lost.

Change log:
v4.4
- Added a new miner flag "Do Not Reboot". If that's checked off, no matter how you try, it will not reboot.
- Fixed numerous problems with the update pool logic. Note that the pool update functionality operates via the API, which means API update access must be enabled (W: in your cgminer config). Also note this is not a permanent update; changes will be lost if you update the miner via the UI or the miner is rebooted.
- Added a "Queue" output option to show the current queue size of your miner.
- Added a "ATemp" output option to show the average temperature of the individual temperature readings for that miner.
- Changed to display the hash speeds formatted, ie, 2.01 TH/s instead of 2012.
- Added support for the Scrypt miner Innosilicon A2 88MH.

Note that I've since found this also effectively breaks web scraping for S1 - S3 units. I no longer have any Antminer units on hand, only S4s remote, so these are hard to test.

Thanks to everyone who's sent donations recently. It's a rough time to be a miner; I appreciate the tips here and there!

The next version should have web scraping support for S4s and Spondoolie units, plus fix it so it works again for S1 - S3 units.

Thanks! I'd be okay with disabling that watch dog over SSH if the S5/SP20 allow it.

Have you tried just scheduling it to reboot every 12 hours?

Maybe it's time to talk to Bitmain and request that it be replaced.

M

ok i will try this. Can i reset them more automatically? What is the threshold where I will see a drop in hashing compared to auto reset amount etc? Thanks.

for example how many times can i reset auto pre day w.o seeing my btc earnings drop. Tyvm

Use the scheduled reboot option in my app. You can set it for 2 different times, or after so much up time. Shouldn't affect your earnings, assuming your miner reboots and returns to service as it's supposed to.

M

well about 24dhrs later this did fix the s3problem or so it seems. the problem now tho is my c1 doesnt seem to like being rebooted by the app. its almost as if i have to take the c1 off now unless there is an alternate option

Here's a beta of the current version I'm working on. It contains a new "do not reboot" flag that you can turn on for your C1 or any other miners you don't want to auto reboot. Keep in mind this is all inclusive, when it's turned on, it will not reboot. There are other changes as well, most of which are complete, but some are incomplete. I've been using it with my SP20s and S4s without a problem, so you should be okay.
