Hello Everyone,

I have been renting out my hashing power in increments to people. That means I enter their pool information for a set amount of time then have to set a reminder to manually switch back. Is there any software that will work with the Antminer S1 that will allow me to set schedules? Or set up a quick if/than statement?

For example, for 12 hours mine using this pool information. After 12 hours, switch back to this pool information?

Antminer uses cgminer which includes the --rotate option to switch pools at regular intervals. Just set that pool strategy, specifying how long between each pool.

Problem with this though is it will switch back to the other pool eventually. I dont want to rotate, I just want it to revert at a certain time frame.

Use cron to rotate your own config in place and restart the miner.

One thing in the same category I am more intered in is switching pool based on luck.

Say I have worked at pool 1 for 1 hour until its luck has decreased to 100%. Now I feel that I will get less profit from the rest of my shares. If I work 1 more hour, I will get half the pay I would have received if I had dedicated my miner to another pool with 100% luck.

Actually, after 2 hours, switching will give me:
1 hour that gets dilluted to 50% value (2 hour block)
1 hour at 100% luck.

So by switching, I would get 1.50 times the value compared to mining the same block to finish.

I am seeing more and more very long blocks, and bad pool luck. So would like to try something like that.
