[Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners

Any chance we can get working API Support for Obelisk SC1 Slim's ?


this is what it looks like.

The second generation of Obelisk SC1 miners doesn't provide any complete standard interface for monitoring. It doesn't include hashrate and a number of other important properties that you would expect from an ASIC miner. This is why it show up in Awesome Miner with just some information.

This worked fine with the first generation of these miners, but then they decided to no longer support this way of monitoring their miners.

According to the guys writing the firmware for them their API will allow all this information and alot more.

This is the problem - they invented their own API instead of following the standard CgMiner API's for monitoring and management of ASIC miners. It would be better if they simply fix the hashrate reporting over the CgMiner API. Then they would have an ASIC miner compatible with all existing monitoring tools on the market and everyone would be happy.

From an Awesome Miner point of view it would of course be possible to implement any custom ASIC API, including this one, but it's a matter of priorities given that it may not be a small task.

Thanks for the persistant updated.
But question:
What is "Progress" column?
For one machine I have:
A: 864 R: 1 HW: 15
The other:
A: 1014 R: 0 HW: 0

What do these figure mean?

A small bug of the last update.

if active in enviroment that mine with administrator privileges, in AM in console nothing comes out, the mining does not appear. I have checked it several times and it has happened to me in all the rigs. It has been deactivate it and return to see the mining in Console.

Now sometimes when I see the console there is a flash, sometimes the information goes away and then it comes back

Maybe there is a fault in the Remote that does not pass the data of the miners when they are with administrator permissions.

I already take the opportunity to suggest ProgpowZ for ttminer, it would be PROGPROWZ_100 although I already know that 101 would be for cuda 10.1.

It would be better in my case to use 101 in the TTminer logos, I have the latest creative driver and cuda 10.1 apart from the 10 and the 9.2

There are a few features that currently doesn't work when mixing privileges between Awesome Miner (or Remote Agent) and the mining software - because it's a more complex setup to support. If you run both Remote Agent and the mining software with the same privileges (either both are non-admin or both are admin), it should all be fine. The limitations show up with the new setting that allows you to mix the privileges by running Remote Agent as standard user and the mining software with Administrator privileges.

Right now it's the Console view and the Diagnostics that doesn't work with mixed privileges, but I will try to find a way to solve that.

I will go ahead and add ProgPowZ for TT-Miner. It also looks like TT-miner can auto select the CUDA version to use these days, so I will go ahead and change the algorithm names from for example "MTP-100" to only "MTP" and let TT-miner pick the CUDA version for you. When I test TT-miner it selects CUDA 10.1 for those algorithms where it's available. Can you please also give this a try when the new development release is available? Thanks!

The problem here is that every time AM is updated, it loses the administrator privileges, and you have to go every time executing as administrator.

Since it is necessary, put in options a check box, or by default that AM always starts with administrator privileges.

Hi Patrike,

When I set the managed miner environment "Console windows mode" to "hide window", I can not see any output in the miner's "Console" (lower part of main AM window). Is this a technical limitation?

Thanks,

Yes, that's a limitation right now.

I will investigate how to improve this. With a design change to this feature it should also be possible to take care of the scenario @trucobit pointed out when running as Admin.

Just downloaded new version (6.4) and the associated Awesome Miner Remote Agent.
The remote miner here has 10 Nvidia and 2 AMD cards installed.
Before the update all cards were recognised by Awesome Miner.
After the update I can only see the 10 Nvidia cards. (Under the GPU selection in the Managed profit Miners section no AMD cards appear)
I have restarted both the Miner and the PC with Awesome miner on it and checked the AMD cards do appear in the device manager and in Afterburner.

Is this a bug of 6.4?

The GPU selection list should only be filtered based on mining software for Managed Miners - for Managed Profit Miners you should be able to see both nVidia and AMD.

Can you please select the miner in the main window and click on the Systems tab at the bottom of the screen. Are the AMD devices listed here? If not, can you please send me your Remote Agent log file (toolbar: Tools -> Log File -> Remote Agent) for this system? Thanks!
