Does this software have the ability to schedule mining based on times? As in, running miners only at nights and weekends when the computers are not in use?
Yes, you can use the Rules in Awesome Miner to define all this. The Rules can be defined in the Options dialog and uses the concepts of Triggers and Actions. You can define Triggers that trigger a specific time and/or day. You can also define Actions that will be performed when the rule is triggered, for example to start or stop mining. Also, is Cryptonite planned as a future upgrade?
Is it the Claymore miner? I don't think that one provides any API, so the amount of information displayed in Awesome Miner would be very limited and only based on the parsed console output. |

i see, does it already come pre configured for these pools
also i see waffle pool is there, but its my understanding wafflepools API doesnt show CURRENT/LIVE Profitaiblity
You can read more about the Awesome Profit Switching feature and find pre-configuration for the pools on the web site. Just let me know if you have any questions. You are correct about Wafflepool. Awesome Miner will show the statistics and profitability when you mine on Wafflepool, but it will not be part of the actual profitability switching because their statistics are based on 24h intervals. |

how does this compare to 'MinerControl' or do they both pretty much do the same thing, similar payouts?
MinerControl is a basic tool that can stop and start miners on your local computer based on profitability of a few multi-pools. Awesome Miner is much more powerful than that, and can do profit switching for pools on both local and multiple remote miners, without having to stop and start the miners. The profit switcher in Awesome Miner doesn't only support several auto switching multi-pools, but can also switch to mine specific coins if they are more profitable than the multi-pools. This makes it possible for Awesome Miner to always give the highest payouts. By using Awesome Miner you can monitor and manage all your mining rigs from a single application, and see the hash rates, progress, current profitability and perform mining, pool and device operations. You can for example get desktop or e-mail notifications if there are any issues with the mining, and Awesome Miner will also automatically restart a miner that has crashed. You can find more details about all the features in Awesome Miner on the Awesome Miner web site. It's much more than a tool for just starting and stopping a miner. |

I have changed the API access on 2 of my S3 from restricted to privileged like posted here 2 pages back.
I thought it did not work, because i still see "restricted" in the summary.
Now i found that exactly these 2 where i tried show with the new update the clock and asic status, while the others dont.
On the other hand i still cant switch pools on them through awesome miner.
So are they now restriced or privileged? I must be missing something
Hi, This sounds a bit strange - like Awesome Miner doesn't detect the privileged mode correctly in this case. Could please select the miner and click the "View details..." button, and then click "Generate API Report". Could you please send the report file to info@awesomeminer.com? |

Hi, im new to this mining thing... does mining dogecoins thru sgminer shows ur real earnings on the cmd screen while it is running?
Appreciate feedbacks.. thank you.
Hi. In the Sgminer console window you can see some statistics about the mining, but not any profitability information. For that you need need to download Awesome Miner (see first post) and configure a pool to use. |

I've made a correction for the BfgMiner problem reported by Axiste and a correction for the Antminer S3 specific statistics reported by ferncreekminer. The corrections will be included in next release that will be available later this week. Thanks for all input that helped me correct these issues!

The Frequency & ASIIC is working fine for S1 but isn't working on for the S3, any chance you know what needs to be changed? Also
Can you select your S3 miner and click the "View Details..." button. Got to the API Console tab, type the command "stats", and send me the result ( info@awesomeminer.com). Thanks! I have a BTC Garden, Antminer S1, & Antminer S3 miners each in a separate group. Would it be possible have Progress field customization tied to the Group; that way each group could have a different customization?
That is currently not supported, but it was a good suggestion for future development. |

Ok, been having this issue the last few versions, I have BFGminer 4.8.0 running my little Ant U1 on a Windows Server, for some reason it just wont report.. didnt want to work on 4.7.0 for a while either, infact cant remember if the last time it worked was 4.6.0 or 4.7.0... as i wasnt too concerned with watching it in Awesome miner. (so that might be my problem)
Hitting "Test Connection" shows fine, but it comes up Disconnected in the main window.
Could you send me the log file (Options -> Advanced)? Can you also try to select the disconnected miner, click "View details...", then click Generate API Report and send me the output? Thanks! |

Version 1.1.1 add support for Antminer specific statistics in the progress field (thanks spiceminer15).  The Progress field can also be configured separately for the Small list view. Instructions how to configure the Progress field, including Antminer example: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/customizefield.aspx |
|
|
|
is there a way to customize the Progress field when the Miner View is set to Compact List? If not could you please add in the future release?
appears that the customize Progress field is only applied when Miner View is set to List.
i did away with HW Error count and create Error Rate % - as I am more concerned with Error Rate % than I am hardware errors
Good suggestion. I will add a new setting for this in the dialog for customization of the Progress field. |

Something I've wondered about with KnC is that they say "no refunds" on all devices, yet I've been told by countless Swedes (I live in Sweden) that this is against the law. All items must be sold with a short open-buy period.
Is KnC openly defying Swedish law, or is my understanding of the law incorrect?
Refunds are required if a company is selling a product to a consumer. When you buy a miner from KnC, you have to agree that it's a business to business sale, and in that case the refund rules doesn't apply. (I also live in Sweden) |

Patrike, I am attempting to install the latest Awesome Miner Remote Service. I have completely uninstalled the previous version.
Using Win 7-64. The installation hangs as it is attempting to start services it then has a popup that says that the IntelliBreeze Software Maintenance Service failed to start. Please advise.
I will try to reproduce this problem and get back to you. Is the Windows user you are running as an Administrator? Just to follow up on this topic. We found out that Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 wasn't installed. The installer doesn't inform about this, only that the service failed to start as part of the installation. |

fire000 - Great that you found the answer how to enable the Antminer API. I hope you enjoy the software

Patrike, can you walk us through creating a "Rule" to do the following. check to see what the AVG hashrate is, if it is below 400GH/s then reboot wait 5 minutes check again to see if hashrate is below 400GH/s? if good, wait another 5 minutes then repeat. Thanks!! Great App, Keep up the 'Awesome Work'!!  Yes, of course I can help you with that. Just a quick question - is this a stand alone ASIC that you connect to as an External Miner in Awesome Miner (Cgminer running on the actual ASIC device)? If that is the case, it will not possible to reboot, only restart the mining process. Also, Is there any specific reason the app won't install on a VM image of windows 7??
I've sent you an e-mail about this. We can continue the fault isolation by mail. |

The profit switcher is working based on statistics from some of the popular pools. The pools supported are TradeMyBit, West/NiceHash, LTCrabbit, Yaamp. The easiest way to get all the configuration needed is to follow this guide, where you can download all pool info: http://www.awesomeminer.com/guide/awesomeprofit.aspxIf you use Coinwarz statistics and want to mine for Darkcoin (just an example), Awesome Miner will compare the profit of Darkcoin with the current profitability of mining NiceHash, and switch to the most profitable one. It is however important that all these pools to be considered by the profit switcher are added to the miner pool list. If you go to the Pools-tab for a running miner, you see the list of all the pools - and those you want to profit switch between must be in the list (example screenshot: http://www.awesomeminer.com/img/guide/profit_mining.png) Thanks, I am pretty sure I am following the directions and see it change sometimes but not confident its working as intended. For example, I am remotely managing a Gridseed 5 Mhz blade (scrypt only). I have selected my "Awesome Miner pool" which consists of the supported Pools along with some individual coins. It has chosen to use the Nicehash pool. As a test, I have also added my crappy graphics card which gets about 50 khs (scrypt only). I too select my "Awesome Miner pool" with the exact same pool/coin options. If this software was auto-picking the most profitable and NiceHash was already picked, one would think the graphics card would also be assigned NiceHash, but no, it gets a coin. If things are most profitable, why would different devices get different coins/pools? Could you please send me your Awesome Miner log file? Awesome Miner is writing log information to AwesomeMiner.log. To find this file, open the Options dialog, Advanced section, and select either Open to open the file in a text editor, or Open folder to open the folder where the log file is located, so it can be copied or attached to an e-mail. |

Found the API for WafflePool here. Pain in the but structure. It's going to take a little more time to parse this out but it still shouldn't be too bad. The pool definitely meets my criteria for inclusion. I've also looked into Wafflepool as an option for automatic profit switching. However, their data is not really real-time and part of their statistics are 24h averages which isn't good enough for a profit switcher. I have also contacted the Wafflepool admin about this, and they think that giving out more real-time statistics isn't a good idea, as users might not like the fact that those numbers are just estimates. |

hate to shoot my own app in the foot, but
antminers do report the asic stats and freq.
with the "stats" command
it'll return
chain_acs1
chain_acs2
frequency Many thanks, I really appreciate that! I used to have an Antminer S1, but not anymore. |

Really enjoying the product, so thank you! But I am also not confident I am understanding a couple statements from the website help vs my results. I have enabled the awesome profit switching rule and its set for 30 minutes. I also enabled the check box to manually implement and see the option on top, love it!
Help: The Awesome Profit Switching rule requires all pools to switch between to be added to the miner. Of all the added pools, the most profitable will automatically be prioritized.
Me: I am not finding the priorities changing over time even as the coin's and pool profit-abilities change.
Help: If the pool has a specific coin specified, the coin statistics will be used to calculate the profitability of the coin, and the Awesome Profit Switching rule will automatically change to the pool if it's more profitable than any of the added multi-pools.
Me: Pool can mean either a hosted pool such as NiceHash or the pool of coins/pools inside AwesomeMiner. If I am using NiceHash and also added a dedicated pool for a coin NiceHash knows nothing about, will it get the profitability from Coinwarz and those sites or does it rely on NiceHash to give individual statistics? What if NiceHash knows nothing about that coin?
Mainly I am not seeing consistent results in changing pools with the awesome profit enabled. For example, ANC coin is always at my highest priority and it starts mining with this. I then manually switch to a different pool, say NiceHash. I then re-add my awesome pool which consists of both. Technically if ANC was my highest priority and thus most profitable, it would switch back, no? And vice versa...in either case it seems to stick with what I move it to and not auto-pick after the 30 minute interval or manual request.

Would like to be able to have some of the reporting on the Miners view for the Antminers, with the info like is shown with Spiceminer's Antviewer though. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760810.20Just need the Asic status, Best Share & Freq. as you already have Ghs, Reject and HW errors. Then I wouldn't need to run Spiceminers as well as Awesome. I don't think the Antminer's publish the ASIC status and Frequency statistics via the API. It could be that the Antviewer software you are referring to is logging in to the web page and try to parse the output. Best Share can be added in Awesome Miner like this: Open the Customize Progress field, see: http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/customizefield.aspxIf you want to modify the line that by default says "Rejected: XX", you can put a check in the Line 2 box, and enter the following: "R: " + status.Rejected + ", BS: " + status.BestShare Now you will see both Rejected and Best Share on the second line in the Progress field for all your miners. |
