Title: Any way to shut down pc if miner stops? Post by: gjgjg on January 13, 2014, 02:15:46 AM Im using bfgminer which crashes every now and then while im at work or asleep (with red fury usb miners), so to save my pc running while its not mining is there any way to auto shut down? or anyway to auto reboot the bfgminer?
thanks Title: Re: Any way to shut down pc if miner stops? Post by: U1TRA_L0RD on January 13, 2014, 02:45:50 AM 1) Find out what time it shuts down the most
2) Set alarm for that time to wake up and reset the miner Also if your at work, you can shut it off automatically by using the automated shut off to specify what time you want it off when the miner mostly shuts off.

It will monitor CGMiner, and if it's crashed, or if you hashrate drops below a certain point, it will close and restart CGMiner. If it does this 3 times, it will reboot your PC. Also sends email alerts when it does this.

If no ping, shutdown. |
