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

[patrike]

Awesome Miner version 5.2.4 (Development preview of 5.3)

- The Managed Hosts configuration in the Options dialog has been improved to allow finding hosts without miners and a bulk edit feature to enable or disable hosts
- Predefined mining software (Managed Software) can be configured with a custom download URL and executable, to give more flexibility on which version to use for the automatic download feature
- Added user defined Managed Software compatibility mode 'Command Line', where no API flags are added when launching the mining software
- Increased maximum time for the rule action 'Wait'
- PhoenixMiner pool setting PROTO can be specified in the Properties dialog of a pool
- Support for using Tensority pools with Bminer
- Better detection of Innosilicon A9Z miner
- The information on the Coins tab is presented with more columns and additional details like coins per day.
- Notifications are listed with the hostname or IP address of the miner
- The Notification list will always use time as secondary sorting column when sorting on another columns
- Benchmarking will by default always use pools instead of offline benchmark mode (supported by Ccminer, CpuMiner), with a new setting to enable benchmark without pools if needed
- Values and profit numbers are expressed with at least two significant digits
- Dialog positioning improved for multi screen usage
- Display profit information from MultiPool.us pools
- Updated list of algorithms for predefined pools
- Added mining software: CryptoDredge 0.6
- Ccminer 2.3
- XMRig CPU miner 2.6.3

Items in blue are updated since the last development preview.

To get access to development versions, open the Options dialog in Awesome Miner. In the General section, enable Check for development versions. Then go to the Menu and click Check for updates

Hi,

Dev Team, could you please adding full support for Bitmain Z9 miner.

For some reason if I add pool to miner from awesome miner, miner console on bitmain stopped show statistics until reboot.

@patrike

Looks like NiceHash Added 16R
https://www.nicehash.com/news/x16r-available-at-nicehash

Thanks

[O-Coin]

If I want to add this to online services.  what would be the Algorithm api identifier?

Seems its a # in the other nice hash online services.
I have all this
stratum+tcp://x16r.usa.nicehash.com:3366
username: YourBitcoinAddress
password: x

Please advise

Thanks again

Have you tried with another pool? There have been instances where Antminers simply not working well with certain pools and the result is that they stop answering monitoring requests from applications like Awesome Miner.

I will add this one in the next update.

Nicehash uses 33 as the API identifier for X16r:

Any plans to support the new excavator ? seems to be the fastest at lyra2z also now.
 No support for other pools than nicehas doh

I've received a few requests for this one, so it will be supported later on. I'm however getting the impression that the Excavator miner isn't as popular to use these day, because it's limited to the Nicehash pool only like you point out.

I have 3 Z9's that I monitor from AM.  Have had no issues to date.  I started out on MPH on 6/22 but have since switched to Luxor.

This is quite weird situation. Awesome miner is working all the time, but internal web page for monitoring is loading data until reboot. Mining never stopped and actually switch pools, but web interface never updates from Awesome console.

Awesome Miner version 5.2.4 (Development preview of 5.3)

Hi, Patrick
Starting with versions 5.2.3 and 5.2.4 respectively, began to observe this picture

Code:

http://images2.imagebam.com/cc/7b/a9/3273be910022894.PNG

And as a consequence, the "profit switcher" switches all ant on this coin, peeling off BTC / DGB, etc., which are the most profitable
Is it possible to make some sort of averaging of the price, when data is taken from several calculators?

PS thanks for the windows tied to the monitor, it really works and saves time when setting up

[patrike]

very thanks
CryptoDredge benchmark incorrect , i select 1 gpu benchmarking but value sum all gpu benchmarked .

Thanks for reporting this issue - it will be resolved in the next release. It turns out that ccminer uses --devices flag, while CryptoDredge expects --device

I'm not sure if I fully understood the last part here. Is the information in Awesome Miner displayed incorrect compared to what's actually going on? Do you have any more details to share on this? Thanks!

WhatToMine and Coincalculators.io uses different short name on Maza, which is why they both show up. I suppose one these short names are incorrect. Otherwise Awesome Miner will only use one of these sources, depending on the priority defined in the Options dialog, Statistics section.

I do understand your point about avg. value, but the concept at the moment is to only display the coin from one of the sources.

One thing I should mentioned through, is that the main temperature displayed for the Z9 is the PCB temp.  Shouldn't the Chip temp be the main one? (the temp displayed in the compact view)

Miner view from Z9 status page:



And summary view from AM:



AM ASIC tab:



The Chip temp is always higher than the PCB temp and is the more critical one to keep an eye on, no?

Question on licensing.  I currently have the Premium edition licensing which allows for 20 miners.  I actually have 22 miners and don't see that going up significantly any time soon, given the current climate.  I can't see paying another $170 just to gain visibility to those last 2 miners.  I also don't care for multi-user access control as I'm the only one managing the rigs, which is the only additional feature I would gain by going to the Enterprise edition.

Have you considered offering like a 5-pack or something of just additional miners with no additional features?

Also curious if a Remote Agent for Ubuntu is on the road-map at all?

PLEASE ADD BITTUBE COIN for AMD with CAST XMR....

Thankyou

You can configure Awesome Miner to show the chip temperature in the list of miners. Go to the Options dialog, General section and enable "Display Antminer chip temperature in Status column".

Also note that the rules in Awesome Miner (the Temperature Trigger) can be configured to either use the PCB temperature or the Chip temperature.

In the settings there is a switch between the chips and the board

Code:

there is a drop-down list

Thanks for your feedback on this. The editions of Awesome Miner are unfortunately not very flexible from this point of view. They have a fixed number of miners, and it's not possible to add only a few more miners. The idea is that once you go above the limit for one edition, you need to go to the next. The idea is to keep everything as simple as possible with these predefined editions.

Remote Agent on Linux is currently being developed. I have a prototype running already, and I expect to have a public beta version available next month. Right now it only provides automatic download of a very limited number of mining software, the overclocking feature isn't available and there are a few other implementation items to sort out.
