I've started to look into this. For nVidia this temperature feature isn't documented so it's a bit difficult to find out how others have resolved it. For AMD I've identified how to get Memory and Hotspot temperature on Linux and Hotspot temperature on Windows.

Thanks for the report. I'm not able reproduce the problem with PhoenixMiner and the benchmark. Is normal mining working fine with this miner, where it reports hashrate and power usage - but only in the case of benchmark it never shows any hashrate?

Thanks for your suggestion. I will have to investigate how to get access to these readings. I know GPU-Z and HWInfo64 can show it, but I've not yet found any details in the nVidia documentation how to actually read this value.

Thanks for the update.

BraiinsOS uses their own way of configuring miners these days so the standard way for Awesome Miner to enable API access will unfortunately not work. You will have to look into if this can be enabled via BraiinsOS.

In general - we do support monitoring of almost any ASIC miner on the market and in most cases we also support monitoring when you run custom firmware on the ASIC miner. In terms of operations we mainly focus on supporting the default ASIC firmware and our own Awesome Miner firmware. As long as any other third party firmware keeps the compatibility with the original firmware, it will work fine. Any custom firmware that come up with their own ways of doing things will typically not be supported by Awesome Miner.

Hi,

Yes, please see my reply above (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=676942.msg57229445#msg57229445). I have a correction in the pipeline for the hashrate display. For pool changes, please try SSH instead.

This should have been resolved since earlier today. I hope all works fine now.

When this happens, have you tried to add Exclusions to allow specific processes and folders?

Awesome Miner do support overclocking on Linux as well. The feature requires you to have an Awesome Miner license as this will unlock more features, including the GPU overclocking.

Remote Agent on Linux can overclock both AMD and nVidia GPUs. This feature is not related to HiveOS in any way.

I've sent another report to Microsoft about this. It's unfortunate that they correct the detections but then a few days later they change something and the problem is back.

Thanks for helping out here.

So far it's only been for the most popular Antminers, so mainly the Bitcoin miners but also L3+ for Scrypt. Antminer Z11 is not a priority at the moment. Whatsminer will however be supported in the future.

Thanks for sending me the API report via PM. For Antminer Z11 the hashrate unit is reported a bit different depending on firmware version. I've just implemented support for detecting this specific firmware and use the correct hashrate unit (kH/s instead of MH/s).

For the pool configuration, please consider doing this via SSH instead. Doing the web-based configuration will assume the firmware is Bitmain compatible and it looks like this firmware is doing something different here.

Thanks for the update. I've had a total of 3 cases with Microsoft on this the last two weeks. Hopefully things will run smoother now.

 Corrections
  - Correction to setting Mining Profile
  - Correction to heat map color formatting

Thanks for the report.

Microsoft corrected one trojan alert in Windows Defender yesterday (June 6th). Unfortunately this turns out to be yet another incorrect detection so I've filed a new report to Microsoft about this case as well. I will keep you updated.

Update June 8th:
Microsoft has removed the incorrect detection.

To force an update of Windows Defender defitintions, please run the following via cmd.exe started with Administrator permissions.

Hi,

I've reported this to Microsoft as a false positive. It happens from time to time that they incorrectly detect Awesome Miner as a threat. In general, security software are very sensitive for anything related to mining.

Update: I received a confirmation from Microsoft that they have removed this incorrect detection.

Please follow the steps below to clear cached detection and obtain the latest malware definitions.

Awesome Miner version 8.5.1

 ASIC mining
  - Improved Antminer firmware compatibility
 Mining software
  - NbMiner 37.6
 Corrections
  - Correction to C# scripting feature
  - Correction to chip temperature color formatting

Thanks. I've identified the scenario and there will be a correction for this in the next release.

Hi again.

The feature you quote above is not related to Remote Agent being able to do profit switching without Awesome Miner. The Awesome Miner main application must always run for the profit switching to work, both before and after this update.

The new feature in 8.5 is about how Awesome Miner and Remote Agent communicate. With the new concept they can communicate via our cloud, without having to have a direct connection between them. This makes it easier to deploy Awesome Miner and the Remote Agents on different locations without having to think about VPN. Both Awesome Miner and Remote Agent do need to be running, just like today. For more details about this new feature, please see "Connect to remote GPU miners without VPN":
https://support.awesomeminer.com/support/solutions/articles/35000085972-connecting-to-miners-on-a-remote-location

Just like @sxemini pointed out - this feature will make use of our cloud and will require an active subscription.

Awesome Miner version 8.5

 Note
  - The code signing certificates for the MSI installers have been updated. Windows may show a SmartScreen warning as the certificate is new.
 ASIC mining
  - Improved the Antminer S9 unlock feature to unlock any Bitmain S9 firmware version to allow installation of the Awesome Miner Antminer firmware
 GPU mining
  - Beta: Awesome Miner and Remote Agent can be configured to communicate via Cloud Services, without a direct communication link between them. This makes deployments of remote sites easier as it no longer requires VPN.
  - Mining software can be disabled globally via the Options dialog, Managed Software section.
 Features
  - Virtual Miner Groups can include other Virtual Miner Groups
  - If miner groups are configured to include the total number of hashing miners (non-zero hashrate), the group headers in the miner list will also include this number
  - The Information column can display the mining uptime in percent of the last 30 days
  - Temperature color thresholds can be configured separately for ASIC miner chip temperatures
  - Heat map can display either Chip temperature or the standard temperature for ASIC miners
  - The triggers for hashrate and accepted shares will include more details about the current mining software and pool when preparing the notification message
  - New rule trigger: Miner Property. Can trigger on miner description or miner group name.
 User interface
  - Introduce a new page Appearance in the Options dialog. Many of the settings previously listed on the General page has now been moved to the Appearance page.
  - Hide old mining software GPU operations no longer supported by modern mining software
 Changes
  - When sorting on Performance, Disconnected miners should be on top of the miner list
  - The pool endpoints of the Awesome Miner API no longer requires the web to be configured to allow pool operations
  - Reduced the number of separate DLL-files for Awesome Miner and Remote Agents
 Mining software
  - NbMiner 37.5
  - T-Rex miner 0.20.4
  - Lolminer 1.29a (Linux only)
  - SrbMiner-Multi 0.7.5
  - PhoenixMiner 5.6d
  - CpuMiner-Opt 3.16.3
  - XmRig 6.12.2
 Corrections
  - Improved power usage detection when benchmarking multiple GPUs at once

  - Correction to history data collection while the application authentication dialog is waiting for the user to sign in
  - Correction to the trigger for detecting if a miner isn't hashing
  - Improved Ethereum protocol selection for NbMiner

Thanks for pointing out this. There will be a change in Awesome Miner for this in the next release.

Hi and thanks for the feature suggestion. A workaround to get started with this right away is to run a command where you manually specify a wave-file to play, using the "Run Executable" action.
Executable: powershell.exe
Parameters:  -c (New-Object Media.SoundPlayer "C:\Windows\Media\notify.wav").PlaySync();
