If anyone receives an Antminer D3 soon, I would be very glad if you could send me an API report (Toolbar: Tools -> API Report) for the miner so I can confirm if it works great together with Awesome Miner.

Many thanks!

Thanks. I do however need to ask if you could send me an e-mail with the Log file as well (Toolbar: Tools -> Log file).

Yes you can mix GPU's. You can also have two mining software (two Managed Miners) running at the same time, where one do mining with the AMD GPU's and the otherone with nVidia GPU's.

If there is anyone running Awesome Miner and receives an Antminer D3 soon, I would be very glad if you could send me an API report (Toolbar:Tools -> API Report) for the miner so I can confirm if it works great together with Awesome Miner. So far all different Antminers have been very similar from a monitoring point of view, but it would be good to get a confirmation on this.

Many thanks!

The idea is that Awesome Miner should save you both time and money, by detecting any issues with the mining and take action and give you a notification. TeamViewer (and similar) should only be used for remote desktop access, not for monitoring.

Thanks - It is awesome!
There are both free and paid versions of Awesome Miner available, depending on how many miners you have and what kind of features you want. See this page for details:

Welcome!

Awesome Miner will only add the pools that the mining software actually support. Can you give an example of which mining software that was running (Claymore Ethereum, Ccminer, ...) and the algorithm of the pool that was missing.

The screenshot link you provided didn't work for me.

You should benchmark each unique type of GPU and save it to a Profit profile that is unique for that GPU. If you will be mining I assume you run two Managed Miners, one for the nVidia GPU's and one for the AMD GPU's. Otherwise I suppose it's only the Claymore Ethereum miner that may support both of them

More about benchmarking:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/benchmark.aspx

There are some characters that cannot be used, and this can depend on type of miner. So if underscore isn't working, it's just to try with dot or something else instead.

For Nicehash, you only need to put your Bitcoin address in the Worker name field. Wallet address is only used for some pools and never with ASIC's and Antminers.

Frequency change was only supported on the Antminer S9 from 2016, and Bitmain remove the way it could be changed over SSH after that. I have a quite new Antminer that I've not even connected yet. Once I do that, I can see if I can figure out a way to solve this on new Antminers as well - but it probably a limitation in the Antminer itself.

The latest Claymore miners was part of the development releases, but today Awesome Miner 4.0 was released so you can simply upgrade to that version to get built-in support for Claymore Ethereum Miner 10.0.

So you want this for some of the pools, so the settings in Options dialog, Online services, where you can define the templates - it's not flexible enough for this scenario?

I couldn't find any information on how to interface with the Simple Rig Resetter. Anyone else knows?

Any improvement suggestions are welcome.

Hi,
If you are on the latest Awesome Miner, then it's the new address api.nicehash.com. About their web site being down temporary down tomorrow - I don't know if the API (the profit information used by Awesome Miner) also will be unavailable during this period of time. I guess we will find out.

Don't forget to check out the new Awesome Miner Cloud Services

Hi,
Is the API access rules configured differently on that miner? Have you for example used Awesome Miner to setup privileged API access or similar for the Antminers?

If you want, you can also send me the API report for this miner so I can verify that it doesn't give any monitoring information over the API. Reports can be generated from the toolbar: Tools -> API report.

I think it's only their web site that changes, not the API's used by Awesome Miner.

The latest Excavator will be added later on, but will require a significant implementation effort.

Can you try to uncheck the checkbox for "ping" when you scan for Remote Agents?

Does it work to manually add the remote miners by selecting Managed Miner in the wizard, and then add a new host where you manually specify the IP?

You cannot mix different versions of Awesome Miner and Remote Agent.

Development Previews can be enabled from the Options dialog, General section. Then Menu -> Check for updates. If you need access to the MSI files for manual installation:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/download/setupdev/AwesomeMiner.msi
http://www.awesomeminer.com/download/setupdev/AwesomeMinerRemoteService.msi

Don't downgrade to version 3.2 once you installed the new development versions.

Awesome Miner 4.0 release plan
Awesome Miner 4.0 will be released on September 7th or 8th. The content of the release will be almost identical to the feature list above.

Already today you can sign up and start using the new Awesome Miner Cloud Services together with the development version.

I've just made a small change to the "Detect miner API" rule, because it was a possible timing issue that could have been the reason for the problem you describe. I was however not able to reproduce the problem myself, so please try with the new version 3.2.9 and get back to me with your findings.

Thanks - not I understand the scenario. There is a 60 second delay from when a miner interface is connected until the Check Statistics triggers can trigger. This was originally to prevent triggering on low hashrates because the mining didn't have a chance to get started.

The same delay applies to Accepted as well, which probably explain your scenarios where a very low Accepted value would happen within the first minute, and doesn't trigger, while when you set it to a higher value, it will trigger.

I've recently added the option to select GPU clocking profile for a Managed Miner, and being fully aware that this is not the complete solution. Please note that the GPU clocking profiles you can save in Awesome Miner isn't related to the profile concept in MSI Afterburner. Awesome Miner needs to control this on a large scale and cannot assume you already have identical setup of profiles in MSI Afterburner on all computers.

What I'm planning to do is to use the configuration dialog for the Managed Software, where you per algorithm can configure both the built-in software and user defined mining software, and add the GPU clocking profile setting in here as well. That would make it possible to have one GPU clocking profile for for each algorithm for each mining software. Endless flexibility!

The Accept progress rule is typically used to compare current Accepted share value with a previous one, to make sure it's increasing. If you set it to compare with a value 5 minutes ago, it will take at least 5 minutes before it can trigger, and then it will only trigger if Accepted share is identical (which indicates that the mining isn't progressing as it should). Is this the scenario you are using with your Accept rule or is it another case you want to take care of? Maybe you could send a screenshot of the properties of this Accept trigger so I get a complete understanding of it.
