Hello.
I have ASICs from different generations, i.e. Z11, Z11e, Z11j, Z9, and Z9 mini.
If I specify in Equihash that 15 KH/s = 400 W, then the power consumption for Z11 is calculated incorrectly and is shown as ~4000W per ASIC, when in reality it is only 1400W.
How do I specify power consumption correctly?
You can use multiple Profit Profiles. Please go to the Options dialog, Profit Profile section where you can add a new profile for "Z9" for example. You can define a specific power usage for the algorithm Equihash for this specific profile. Next step is to open the Properties dialog for all Z9 miners and set the "Profit Profile" to "Z9". You can select multiple Z9 miners in the main window of Awesome Miner, right click and select Bulk Edit to modify many of them in a single operation. You can in a similar way add a Profit Profile for Z11, and set the "Profit Profile" property of your Z11 miners to this newly created profile. If you have miner models that are very similar in terms of hashrate and power usage, they can of course share the same Profit Profile. |

Hi,
In trigger miner state I can choose 'mining' or 'disconnected api access denied' is there a possibility to just test miner state 'stopped' ?
for instance when a rule stop miner if current profit below a certain amount, after, I would like to set 'if miner stopped and profit profile above a certain amount then start miner'
please it is possible to have in miner state trigger to test the status 'stopped' ?
thks if possible or how to make it with all the existing tools already in the box (because there are plenty possibilities in awesome miner :-) ) ?
There are no trigger to check if the miner is in Stopped state. Even if you send the Start command when the miner is already running - nothing happens. So your rule might just work fine even without this check. You can also configure the rule to only run one per minute for example, by combining your existing triggers with a Time-trigger. |

EDIT: Okay I was able to work around this by correcting the power usage in the dual mining section - however that doesn't explain why the profit switcher was choosing ETH/HB because it clearly shows that even with the wrong power setting for dual mining, MWC31 was more profitable.
I've identified the exact scenario now and it will be corrected. |

Hi Patrike
after update on 7.4 all wallet addresses from Profit profile -> Override global profit switching pools is gone. Now i have idiotic job to put all addresses back))))
Check pls. that happens in previous version after update too.
I can't see any specific reason why these specific settings would be lost at the moment, but I will investigate the scenario to find out more. If you simply exit Awesome Miner and start again, are the settings saved correctly? |

Awesome Miner version 7.4
ASIC mining
- Network scan for Antminers supports a new mode where the hostname of the miner can be defined as part of the scan - also linking the hostname with the External Miner
- Add multiple External Miners at once by specifying a list of IP addresses in the Add Miner wizard
- Support copy of IP addresses to clipboard from the list of results when performing ASIC operations like Default Pools or Configure API Access
- Antminer IP Reporter feature, where pressing the 'IP Report' button on an Antminer. This feature can be accessed via the toolbar Tools -> ASIC Tools.
GPU mining
- Edit GPU Clocking Profiles directly from the Benchmark dialog
- Added additional algorithms
- Improved device power usage detection for GPU mining benchmark
Rules
- New trigger for mining uptime. Can be used to define behaviors after the mining has been running for a certain period of time.
- Improved trigger 'Detect dead/sick device' to detect ASIC chip marked as Red by the Awesome Miner Antminer firmware
Features
- The profit switcher can be configured for a second switching interval with another threshold level. Example: If the primary interval is 3 minutes with a 20% threshold, the secondary interval can be 8 minutes with a 10% threshold.
- The profit switcher for External Miners supports the setting for Minimum time on pool
- A profit profile can be configured to override the global value for Minimum time on pool. Can for example be used to switch pools for ASIC miners less often than GPU miners.
- The information column can be configured to show the notes entered for a miner, mining software, ASIC description and ASIC details
Mining software
- Gminer 2.01, incl. dual mining of Ethereum + Handshake
- NbMiner 27.7
- XmRig 5.9
- CpuMiner-Opt 3.12.6.1
- SrbMiner 0.4.0
- NoncerPro nVidia Miner 3.3.0
Corrections
- Correction to GPU Clocking Profile Groups on Linux
- Correction to benchmark of Handshake algorithm for NbMiner and Gminer
- Correction to Phoenix Miner algorithms
- Correction to main window behavior to prevent it from staying on top
- Correction to API reports taking long time to generate due to slow ASIC miner responses
- Correction to display of mining software uptime when more than one day
- Correction to Task Scheduler setup in environments where the computer name and user name is identical
- Improved behavior in case the computer time is being changed
- Improved fan speed display for Awesome Miner Antminer firmware with fan check turned off

Hi Patrike
i have found a bug:
if i use for miner hosts addresses like xxx.ddns.net:9033, xxx.ddns.net:9034, xxx.ddns.net:9035 and so on in managed profit miner mode. Then if i stop one of this miners and start again, all others miners on this xxx.ddns.net will be stoped and must be started manually.
This bug made imposible to use this addresses in profit switching mode due profit switcher use stop&start function of miners.
Looks like identifying of miners host ignore a port number. I need to switch back to ZeroTier VPN what is much slowly works as ddns.net aliases, till you clear this bug.
Regards
Upd: Switching back to old hosts with ZeroTier ips was not easy, the chaos continue till i have fully deleted all hosts with xxx.ddns.net addresses from databank.
Having the same hostname but different port numbers should work just fine. It's no difference than using IP address and a port number. Please go to the Options dialog, Managed Hosts section and make sure you don't have two entries pointing to the same Remote Agent. For example that you have duplicates pointing to the same Remote Agent (xxx.ddns.net:9033 and possibly an IP address pointing to the same computer) |

Hi Patrike
is this possible to implement a miner software version override function on the profit profile level or in miner object?
At the moment GMiner from ver. 1.97 is better for mining of Coockaroom algo but for CoockaToo31 the best version still 1.96
In my scenario i want that the rigs with Nvidia 1060 cards using other miner software version as rigs which can mine Coockatoo algo, like rigs with 1080ti - 2080ti cards
Regards
This should be possible if you manually add User Defined mining software via the Options dialog, Managed Software section. Select that it's fully compatible with Gminer, but specify your own URL for an older version. In your Profit Profile Properties, you can select this user defined mining software for a specific algorithm like CuckaToo21. |

Hi Patrick
I'm trying to add my new fpga miner by Monad , the imperium v2. it seems that it doesnt connect to the api. i added manually and it says "disconnected", then it change to "mining". But it doesnt give any more info.
Will it be supported in the future?
Can you please send me the API report for this miner (toolbar: Tools -> API Report)? Please send via PM or mail. I will investigate what kind of information the miner providers. Thanks! Once it's showing as "Mining", does it stay on "Mining" all the time but no other information is displayed? |

Thanks for letting me know. I've pushed an update for this. |

Application: Host Process for Windows Services
User: NSB\staff (Active user)
Component: File Anti-Virus
Result: Detected: Trojan.Multi.GenAutorunTaskFile.a
Object: C:\Windows\System32\Tasks\Awesome.Execute001
Reason: Local databases
Database release date: 14/03/2020 05:30:00 AM Can this be moved to a place where it is safer to exclude in antivirus? Windows Task Scheduler is creating these files and Awesome Miner can unfortunately not select in which folder. |

Hello
thanks for new functionalities !
Any news about possibility (a button) to update hashrate statistics when switching (this may be an alternative to make benchmarks) of course if possible ?
Automatic saving of hashrate is still on the todo-list. Manual saving is possible via Save Hashrate (like @narouberg pointed out). |

Hey, this still has some hardcoded mapping. MWC coin runs with --coin MWC instead of the standard algorithm overrides.
Algo : C29D : MWC-C29D
Rest of the C29M, C31, C32 work fine
Can you please double check if you manually added "--coin MWC" or "MWC" somewhere like below? 1) In the Properties of your pool, command line. 2) Options dialog, Managed Software section, lolMiner algorithm mapping. When looking at how lolMiner is started by Awesome Miner, there are no hard coded coins. If I'm wrong - please let me know. MWC is mined with C31 and C29D algos. For lolminer, AM doesnt have builtin algo mapping for C29D algo, so adding custom mapping as MWC-C29D. Then starting the miner with no parameters in diagnostics shows, miner started with --coin MWC instead of the custom mapped --coin MWC-C29D Could you please send me your Awesome Miner configuration file? %appdata%\AwesomeMiner\ConfigData.xml. Please send via PM or mail as it contains sensitive information. Thanks! |

Bugfixes on lolminer compatibility: 1. Miner supports all c29 variants (29,d,m) and c31 2. Miner uses this format of algo support. I think it is done internally in AM and not via miner properties-command line arg. Adding support to do this via the deafult/user defined command line args would help --coin <coinToMine>
--coin sets the coin you want to mine, e.g. BEAM,AION,BTG,... ... 3. Hashrates are not properly parsed in decimal from the api. The api gives proper 1.2 as values, but is parsed and displayed as 1 in am. Thanks for the details! There were a number of hardcoded mappings for Lolminer as it had a bit special concept for specifying algorithms - as it's typically the coin name you specify. I will change this to be more flexible where you can use the standard algorithm configuration for Lolminer as well. I will also correct the hashrate reporting.

Hi all! Do you know how to fix the problem when main window of awesome miner software displayed above other subwindows with menus or dialogues? Sometimes I can see a piece of window and move it to another place outside the main window, but sometimes I even can not see other windows under the main window and can not control them at all.
Can you please give an example of what kind of window that are displayed incorrectly? Is it a specific Awesome Miner window like the Benchmark that shows behind the main window? Or external applications? Hello, Patrike. This is about main window. I've had one other user reporting this as well and I'm trying to figure out the exact scenario. What if you exit Awesome Miner once and start it again, or minimize the application and then restore the window, do you still get the same problem? - this is the snapshot to see how it looks like. If minimize main window and then restore nothing will change. If close the app and start again it will help. Thanks! I think I have an idea how the problem now so I will make a change for this in the next release. |

I have a small problem, I want to mine with ttminer for Progpowz. It seems that the antivirus is activated on several of my rigs and the host computer and I delete TTminer.
I have deactivated and put exclusion of the folder in each rig. In Awesome-miner I give the option and delete and replace the miners. But it makes no difference, it always gives me the error in diagnosis that the miner cannot find.
You just have to be on the main computer where Awesome-miner is and then upload to each rig? or I have to download the version to each rig in user / nameuser / appdata / local ....
For Windows Defender, Awesome Miner will automatically try to add an exclusion. As I test I would recommend you to manually download TT-miner to any folder on your mining rig. Try to add this folder as an exclusion if it's being removed and try again. Next, configure a miner in Awesome Miner to not use automatic download and instead specify the exact path where you downloaded TT-miner. Is this working? it was necessary for ttminer to work the last vc redistrubuitable, otherwise it does not work. Another fault, I have a currency defined entirely by me. In Coins the profit comes out of RIG, but in the miner tab it doesn't tell me the profit, and that's weird because it reads the hash. I think that somehow there is some incompatibility of the new ttminer with the new CC +, and even giving the value in coins and giving the hash in miner, it does not give the current profit of the miner If you change the Coin you defined for this Pool, to another coin (than your user defined coin) but still with the same algorithm - does that one show up with profit information in the miner list? Please also verify that the pool Profit Factor isn't set to 0. |

Well hopefully this bug report is reproducible..  Using Awesomeminer Linux client with nVidia driver 430, when benchmarking new algos it seems AM is reading the wrong GPU for power usage. Benchmark results show ~20w (standard idle). There are 3 cards in the system, however I am using the single card benchmark mode. Running nvidia-smi shows card 0 at 200w and cards 1/2 at ~20w. Benchmark mode is single GPU, with GPU 0 selected. I will look into this case and get back to you. |

Hi. My nbminer on Handshake doesn’t start at all, and today gminer doesn’t work either.
Is this with dual mining or single coin mining? Can you please share the Diagnostics output. If dual-mining, please see the questions below as well. AM is not correctly passing the algo flags to nbminer
Handshake dual eth with nbminer
View details -> "Command line parameters: -a --no-watchdog -o stratum+tcp://handshake.6block.com:7701 -u ****:x -do ethproxy+tcp://us1-etc.ethermine.org:4444 -du 0xfa8eda5139ec1eb480e5cc67e99920c70a8361c6:x --api 0.0.0.0:4028"
It is missing hns_ethash
I've found some benchmark related issues with NbMiner/Gminer and Handshake/Tensitory, but when doing normal dual mining I've not been able to reproduce this problem you experience. I will continue trying but if you have additional details to share, please let me know. 1) May I get access to the complete Diagnostics output for this configuration? Sending via PM is of course fine. 2) Is the Handshake pool configured with the Coin property set to either "Unspecified Handshake" or the "Handshake"? 3) Is the "Dual mining" property on the Managed Miner configured for Ethereum+Handshake? Thanks! |

Hi boss
in AM ver. 7.3.9 i cant more benchmark Handshake algo with NBMiner
Eaglesong not possible benchmark too
Thanks for the report. I was able to reproduce the benchmark problem with certain algorithms for NbMiner and Gminer. From what I could see, the problem was also possible to reproduce on older versions. A correction will be included in the next release. |
