This is normal.  On ASICs the pools in your web interface are what the ASIC will boot up with.

On this thought Patrike... Could you setup some triggers and actions to allow us to define our own profit switching algorithms?  For instance, like was mentioned before, we could have triggers that deal with the Whattomine or Online Services prices, or percentages, or network hashrates, etc, and then we could have action like switching to a numbered or referenced template.

I think it would be a killer feature.

I see what you mean.  I have asked for a way to calculate longer averages than just 24 hours as well.  It would take a bit of programming on Patrike's part.  There would have to be a data base to take snapshots at regular intervals, and do the averages from those.

Sorry, I don't use Telegram, so I can't help... not a helpful post... I know.   

It's a tradeoff.  If you set it too low (under 10 mins) then you will be wasting time during the switch.  Depending on the miner software, it can take a minute or two to really ramp up and stabilize.  At 10 minutes, and a 1 minute ramp up, you will be losing up to 10% of the time you could have been mining.  If you set it too high, then you miss the change of the "most profitable" coin on the multi-pool.  You would be mining a coin for some period of time where it won't be as profitable.

What do you think will happen when your mining rig crashes?  And it will crash... it will take your secure node with it.  VPS is much more reliable way to run a node, as you need to maintain uptime, block height, challenge responses, and more.

You could certainly run a virtual machine on Windows though if you want to try.

Did you backup your wallet or extract your private key?  If you aren't sure what any of that means, then I'd have to assume you didn't.  Have you tried looking in your Recycle Bin for the wallet.dat that you deleted?  Have you tried to use a deleted file tool to see if the file is still intact on the hard drive?

The statistics in AM come from whattomine, and are based on the current point in time.  When you mine on an online service such as Zpool, they are only showing you estimated earnings.  An online service like Zpool will collect the coins you and a hundred other miners mine, and send them to an exchange where they may or may not make as much BTC as the Zpool estimated earnings.  This is simply to do with timing.  Whattomine has always been a guide and not a guaranteed pay out rate.

If you look in the zpool web page and look up those addresses... do you see a balance on there?  If so, then there is a minimum of 0.001 BTC required before zpool will send a payment to your BTC address, and it will only do that on Sundays.  If you have 0.025 then it will be paid out once every few evenings.  If you have 0.01 then it gets paid out every couple of hours.

What the pools report and what the mining software reports are often out of sync... this isn't an AM problem.  The miner software is reporting the most accurate hashrate, and the pool guesses the hashrate based upon the number of nonce submissions over a certain amount of time.

You have to define the pools in the ASIC web interface, then AM can change the priority of the pool to do the switching.

Maybe I'm not understanding the problem here.  The template does not append the name.  The pool and miner define the name.  The pool provides the prefix, and the miner provides the rig name... like "puwaha.rig1"  The "puwaha" part comes from the worker name in the pool, and the ".rig1" comes from the miner.  The template just marries the pool to the rig.  Templates are meant for quickly switching to another pool or coin quickly... it's not meant for profit miners.

Am I misreading the question?

Certainly.  You setup a pool for VTC and Mona, put them in a pool group, then set the profit switching to use that pool group.  AM will switch between the two depending on which is more profitable with a profit miner.

I think this would be very difficult for a rule to do... even if such a trigger was available.  The exchange rate of BTC fluctuates constantly, and AM is just displaying the current value of your coin as reported by Whattomine or the online services.  If the price of BTC tanks below your threshold, then you would trigger a different pool, when maybe your coin wasn't affected by BTC/USD exchange rate.

If you really wanted this action, then you might be able to program it via the C#/API interfaces in AM.

If I'm misreading your question, let me know.

Did you happen to save the private key of the first denarius wallet that you sent the 233 DNR to?

You really should use the benchmark feature to create 3 different profit switching profiles... one for each type of card you have.  Having two different types of nVidia cards will make it a little more tough to get accurate statistics though.  You will also need to setup two different profit miners... one to deal with the nvidia cards, and one to deal with the AMD card.  You will need to make sure that you only use software that is exclusive to AMD or nVidia... so remove the ability to use Claymore's dual etherium software as it will try to use both card vendors.  So one each profit miner, select the benchmarked profile you created for one or the other vendor, and you should be good to go.

Cool story.

You want to let us know what's going on so we can help you?

You could create a rule to turn it back to "none" highlights.  I would suggest a trigger of Hashrate greater than X, then action to change highlight back to "none".



AM wouldn't have any knowledge of a Linux rig.  You would have to manually set it up as an external miner.  You'd need to find out which port that SMOS uses to report API data and use that port with the IP you already know.  You will need to also tell AM what software your SMOS rig is running so that it can figure out what kind of API data to parse.  I don't remember if SMOS can profit-switch, but that might be a problem if the miner software changes from ccminer to Claymore for example.  But if it's just running a static pool with specific miner software, you can define that in the external miner profile and then you will see the data and statistics.

It's no different than just creating a normal pool in AM.  You go to the Options, select the Pools tab, create a new pool... put in the relevant information like a description, URL, worker name, worker password, and the coin that the pool will be mining.  If you have any special commands to pass to the miner software do it in the advanced tab of the pool definition.  For pools like Suprnova, you put in your username for the worker name... for me it would be "puwaha".  On the managed miner, (or profit miner), you check the box to append the rig name to the worker name, so that the final worker name would be something like "puwaha.rig1"... you need to setup these worker names in the Suprnova pools before hand.  Some pools will automatically do this for you.

After you've setup all these pools, go to the pool group tab and add them all to a pool group.  Then in the profit switching tab in the options, check the box on Custom Pools and select the pool group you just made.

You'll need a profit miner setup instead of a managed miner, and then turn it loose.  It will mine any of the coins in the pool group that is most profitable.

While I'm sure many people will have their own opinions, what sort of recommendation are you looking for?  Are you looking for coins to speculate on?  Are you looking for coins to cash in for profits now?  Or maybe some other condition?

Maybe it would help if you state why you are mining the set of coins you have now?
