Thanks for the update.
Awesome Miner should display what the Antminer API is reporting. Could you please have a quick look at the numbers you see in the Antminer web interface and compare them with what the API is reporting?
1) Select a miner and click on the toolbar: Tools -> API Report
2) Search for the following three properties near the end of the file:
chain_consumption6
chain_consumption7
chain_consumption8
These are all indicating power usage in Watt for each of the three chains. The total is the power usage Awesome Miner should display. Can you please compare this with the Antminer web interface as well - and we might be able figure out the issue.
Many thanks!
Sure..... This is from the API API command: stats chain_vol6":840,"chain_vol7":840,"chain_vol8":840,"chain_consumption6":422,"chain_consumption7":405,"chain_consumption8":420,"miner_version":"26.0.1.3","manual_fan_mode":false,"build_version":"for AWESOME 3.8.6"}],"id":1} So API/web monitor says 1247W On AM set to actual,fall back to static says 1290~1300W Thanks for the report you sent me. There will be a new release later today for this case. |

Hi Patrike,
I'm using Russian (vnish 3.8.6) of the custom S9 firmware you are offering in the last AwesomeMiner. I want to migrate to your version to support you, but don't want to lose all the setting/tuning I've already done. Is it possible and what is the best way to do it?
P.S. Uploaded your version of the firmware on one machine for testing. All the settings remained the same, but there is something wrong: Antminer keeps restarting every few minutes (the auto tuning part is not activated).
If you use the standard way of updating the firwmare, it will by default have "Keep settings" checked. If you use Awesome Miner to update the firmware, it will also use the "Keep settings". When I've been testing with firmware upgrades, this "Keep settings" have made sure that all settings and tuning are kept when you change the firmware. So the steps you taken sounds correct. If you use the Upgrade firmware feature again to roll back to the exact firmware you were running before - is everything running stable at this point? Could you please create a backup of your settings (on the Upgrade tab in the Antminer web interface) and send me this information via mail I can work out this with vnish. Thanks! |

@Patrik
The AM S9 firmware (vnish) has a pretty precise consumption in logs and monitoring menu, would it be possible for AM to obtain this info directly from miner?
good job on the keystroke feature, this will help a lot
Yes, Awesome Miner can actually read the estimated power usage provided by the firmware API. In Awesome Miner, please go to the Options dialog, Profitability section, and change "Power usage mode" to "Actual Usage". On new Awesome Miner installations this is the default, but on existing installations it's not. With "Actual Usage" you will get the power usage from the API of the miner instead of the power usage values you manually configured in Awesome Miner. Thanks for the feedback on the keystroke feature as well! Just set it up, couple of miners on the web monitor show 1260W on AM 1300W, the rest are in pair with the web monitor Thanks for the update. Awesome Miner should display what the Antminer API is reporting. Could you please have a quick look at the numbers you see in the Antminer web interface and compare them with what the API is reporting? 1) Select a miner and click on the toolbar: Tools -> API Report 2) Search for the following three properties near the end of the file: chain_consumption6 chain_consumption7 chain_consumption8 These are all indicating power usage in Watt for each of the three chains.

Hello,
I'd like to swtich 300 miners S9i on latest official firmware "Working Mode" from normal to hashrate-unchanged - lower voltage. via the web custom command interface.
How would I do it since ssh is locked ?
thank you
With the standard Bitmain firmware, Awesome Miner doesn't have any feature to change the "Working mode" for different hashrate/power levels. As @nordmann666 and @Lunga Chung correctly pointed out, with the custom firmware for Antminers you can set multiple levels of hashrate/power modes and these can be set via Awesome Miner. More information: https://www.awesomeminer.com/antminerfirmwarePlease let me know if running the custom firmware would be an option for you. Otherwise I can plan for supporting the "Working mode" on Bitmain firmware in the future. If you need help to enable SSH access or disable the firmware signature check on your Antminers, just let me know and I will of course help out. Awesome Miner can do that on Antminer S9. |

I have a Patrike doubt about the new power temperature system. The first thing I've noticed is that I get more hash. I use both power and core systems. I have the power one at 75 and the Core one at 76 degrees.
Using both systems, power should have more priority than Core.
In the interface I do not define a default power because if not all rigs would start with the same power, but then I see that you have to specify a minimum Power, right now in my case it is 70%.
My question is, I have a rig running at 85 power, when it reaches the target temperature that occurs.
1.- The power falls directly from 85 to 70 (I don't see it right)
2.- When you approach the target temperature, the power is gradually reduced, suppose the case of 5 in 5, which would be 85 is as it was, 80, 75 and finally 70.
The option that I commented is the two, because to make a fall from 85 to 70 it happens that the rig reaches 77 and suddenly falls to 72 degrees, then rises again to 75-77, then falls again.
I should have hysteresis. I don't know if that word exists in English. It is that the system acts a couple of degrees before dropping 5 a degree before the target, wait 30 seconds to see if temperature falls, if not, again lower it 5 degrees, etc. If after reaching the minimum defined by me, in this case 70, and if I have temperature activated also by the core, then at that time the core fall would be activated. OSea first give priority to see if the power drop produces the desired effect, and if you do not get it with my minimum, then pay attention to the Core drop, if defined in the OC.
It's a good job anyway, but I think it lacks this little detail that I tell you.
Thanks for testing out the new feature. It's a bit basic at the moment, but the idea was to give you something to try with to see if the concept is working. I didn't want to implement something too complex in case the entire concept of Power Limit control wasn't found useful. I fully understand your point about not making too frequent changes and not too large changes. Having multiple multiple temperature targets would also be an improvement. I will look into making some improvement here. Thanks for the feedback! It really works quite well, now I have the power temperature limit at 74 degrees and the core limit at 76 degrees. The only thing is that you didn't answer me. Is that if I have set a minimum of 70% and throw a miner at 85% power, if the power drops suddenly from 85 to 70, or it does so little by little and maybe the power stays for example at 75% in time of 70 because it already maintains the temperature. Really more hash is obtained by reducing power than Core, the only thing I ask is that the power reduction be gradual until the minimum marked. You don't have to hit the 85% jump I'm working at 70%. Going down in 3 or 5 point jumps would be great. Combine both systems, power and core already, you just have to give it two different temperatures, setting the core temperature higher in case the power reduction is not enough. It has certainly been a success. The only thing that worries me, is when I gradually lower the power do it every 10 seconds or so, I do not continue fast because it can destabilize the Rig. If for a few moments it exceeds 76 degrees, the core system works, which then cancels itself when the temperature drops again and the power continues to drop to the minimum point I have set. It would only be going down little by little and with 10-second jumps between them so as not to destabilize the rig, and for me it would already be perfect and leave the problem of forgotten heat, in fact heat is no longer a problem for me nor does it take double oc or anything Both systems simultaneously control the temperature excellently, my congratulations. The Power Limit will not change in small steps. It can drop from 85 to 70 right away. I did however introduce two improvments in version 6.8 compared to the development release. You can now define two pair of temperature and power limits instead of one. This makes it possible to define one temperature where the Power Limit should drop to 75% and another temperature where it should drop to 70%. It can make the adjustments a bit smoother. The latest version also uses a 30 second concept where changes will never be applied more often than 30 seconds - to reduce too frequent changes as you had in the development release. |

So after using this software for so many years you'd think I'd know the answer to this.. is there a way to unset a miner highlight after a rule/error is cleared?
For example, if miner does not increase accept progress in 8 minutes it is highlighted yellow. If that then ends up increasing, the miner is rebooted, or the notification is cleared, I would want that highlight to be cleared.
BUT
I don't want a blanket rule to clear all highlights.. because other highlights might still apply.. I only want to unset the yellow highlight if the accept increases.. does this make sense? Is this possible?
I fully understand your question and what you are looking for. There are unfortunately no perfect solution to this, but what you could try out is to add a trigger called "Detect miner API connection established" and then use an action to set the Highlight back to "None". It's not a complete solution for what you are asking for, but if the miner is rebooted and then started again, this rule could at least remove the highlight once the miner is up and running again. |

When you added the nheqminer, did you add it via the Options dialog, Managed Software section, and configured it with Command Line as compatibility mode? In that case Awesome Miner shouldn't try the API and should understand that it cannot get hashrate/share information.
Yes, I added nheqminer in compatibility mode (EWBF CUDA Zcash Miner) and added additional command line arguments in profit profile properties: -v -l mine.zergpool.com:3300 -u BTCaddress -t 7 -a 4029 -p c=BTC,ID=NAME Thanks for the details. The Compatibility Mode provides several options. Have you tried using "None"? |

Testing Beta feature "Enable GPU global power limit":
setting Default power limit 80%, overrides the GPU clocking profile when starting, so all GPU clocking now starts at 80%.
Then try Disable Global power limit and the GPU start profile works again.
I would like to have option to set Default power limit for the normal GPU clocking profile when starting since the my RTX 2060
always starts at 100% no matter what.
The new power limit control is a feature is on a global level, so setting the default power to 80%, it will be 80% all the time unless your temperature condition indicates something else. When you define your Clocking Profile, Power Limit is one of the properties. If you set this one to 90%, isn't that applied for your RTX 2060 GPU? Yes my Clocking Profile Power Limit normally gets set, but if the Power Limit does not get applied like in the case of my RTX 2060, Then the _Default_ Power Limit value of 100% is applied. This setting would need to be Added to the Clocking Profile Properties in Edit - Clocking Profiles : Property - Default Power Limit (%) ....not the Power Limit (%) Value - (%) This acts as a fail safe value (like the Global power limit but only for my RTX 2060 profile) in case the Clocking Profile fails. Thanks for the update. So this specific RTX2060 is not applying the Power Limit property correctly - but it works for all other GPUs? Is it working if you manually apply it via the clocking dialog? Is it never applied correctly when being part of a Clocking Profile? Based on your description it sounds like the new Power Limit control feature was able to set the Power Limit correctly for this GPU - but this feature is setting the same Power Limit property as when you manually apply it or set it via a Clocking Profile. The Power Limit control feature is intended to dynamically adjust the Power Limit based on GPU temperature and it's not at all related to the clocking profiles. |

Own Antminer Software is very cool, but in my opinion it must be without dev fee for the higher Awesomeminer Editions. We have now a 40 Miner License and we want to upgrade to the next step (100 Miners). This is a very big step and it cost so much that i believe it is better to release a Firmware without devfee for the Awesomeminer Editions with 100 and more miners.
Was thinking the same, well maybe not without but from 2% to lower it to standard 0.85% like Phoenix Thanks for the feedback. The firmware mining fee will be 2% and this will not change. I'm not in charge of this part of the firmware and the business model for the firmware. (A small note on the fee is that it's at most 2%, the average is a bit lower) Please also note that most custom Antminer firmware out there have the same mining fee, and there are already a number of Awesome Miner users that are running those solutions. With this release you will get much better integration with Awesome Miner at the same fee as these kind of firmwares already have. This firmware gives a new alternative for those running Antminers and I think many users will consider it to be well worth the fee because of the increased hashrate for a given power level. Awesome Miner will of course continue to support the Bitmain firmware, BraiinsOS firmware and so on for users that doesn't want to have a mining fee. |

I don't own any, but awesome to see your rolling your own firmware like that! Thanks! I can however not take credit for the firmware - I'm not the developer of it. It's developed by vnish that is behind many different brands of Antminer firmware. Awesome Miner Antminer S9 firmware is just another brand name for it. I have however been working close with vnish for some time now to make sure we get a good integration in Awesome Miner. Already with this release there are a number of features integrated, for example the mining profiles to get better control of the hashrate and power levels. Both by manually making the changes but also to allow the rules in Awesome Miner to control it. The plan is of course to continue improving the integration with more features. |
