Ok.. ever since I used the free version of awesome miner (now on enterprise version ), Ive always wondered one thing.... Why is not ALL of the coin information on ALL coins entered and automatically updated? I mean, lets get honest, to maximize profits, a user would have to fill out ALL of the stats for all of the coins, and even find the pool with highest hash rates. This would take WEEKS.  Im SURE this could be done automatically with awesome miner.  I know there is a free plugin for awesome miner, but as its free, its very quirky, and even then, leaves tons of coins without data. Can someone please explain?

Vegas
It is that if you also give the coins you give everything done. The ideal is not to add all the currencies of the world or you will have excessive changes of mining and loss of time.

Ideally, choose about 30 coins and keep your information. If you add it from Coincalculator, it is already updated alone.

It is the work in which I have been several weeks and I have not yet finished, because to know if a coin is good or not, apart from adding it, as you say you have to look for the pool with more hash and then measure the pool, that is to say Testing hours to see if what is estimated in profits is what really gives you. Do not forget to choose the best Exchange, not all have the same price, there you can also lose money.

The program is an interface precisely to facilitate the work, and it is a lot of work, worse would be at hand. It's impossible to give you all that information.

The peculiar plugin that you say is AW CU, and if it's weird and difficult, and you have to update the reward.

But pay attention to me, if it does not appear in Coincalculator, Coinwarz or What to mine, it is a new currency without volume, and if your idea is to sell every day, get away from those coins of little volume and exaggerated price.

As you will see, it is a lot of work. It's like buying a van to deliver, you have to drive hours and hours every day to deliver packages, they will not be delivered alone. Well, this program is the interface and database that you have to complete in data, and this changes depending on what style of mining you do, speculative, hodl or sell day by day.

Now I have a problem with another one of the failures of the program, which has already happened to me several times and I never find a solution.

In this case it is the RIG5, I choose a Neoscrypt coin as Zcore, I teach you in the video that NEoscrypt does with Klaust since basically it is the only good miner of neo, when there are hundreds of coins for this something.

And when I launch it fails, it refers to Neo, to Klaust and I do not know why it also refers to BSD in PHI. In the RIG5 team, Klaust really opens but fails. Now I leave you under the diagnosis. When this happens, it is difficult to fix, and I do not feel like formatting the computer again.

In the rest of RIGS with Neoscrypt and Klaust I have no problems. Other times it has been another RIG and another Something, but sometimes it crosses the information of two coins at a time and fails. because it is clear that what I have chosen from Zcore currency, and I show you the miner and everything.

Let's see if you can dedicate a little time to solve these problems because they become very annoying and they particularly make me lose a lot of time and I only have 5 rigs

Unexpected exit of mining software. Possible cause: Incorrect configuration
Diagnostics completed


and to clarify that I have it right, I'm going to mine it with another RIG and I show you the Zcore configuration, or any NEO currency, so you can see that it's a rare failure, in the same diagnosis there are weird things. I am losing precious time lately with so many failures.

You must find the fault, because this is very sporadic. will see in the video, the same currency in another rig without problems, in rig5, failure. And klaust is a miner by default. I'm going to have to add it separately as mine to try to fix this.

Between the problems with the OC and this, they make me waste a lot of time and therefore money. It seems that I am the only one who finds mistakes or mistakes.

Check for typo in configured command-line, maybe that's the problem

I've been thinking a lot about AW and it's a great software that requires a lot of attention, but it has a huge weak point.

They are the Benchmark that are made by protocol. I can see that I have a different HASH in two coins of the same protocol. It is very noticeable, I mino much neoscrypt, the same rig for a coin can give 5mhs, but for another currency neoscrypt can give a rate of 7 mhs.

Then thinking one realizes that it does not make sense that the switch is done only by the hash of the protocol, that's fine for the pools type Zpool and auto change.

But if I have 80 coins added, I need to know the hash for each of them, because although many are from the same protocol, they get different hashes. This difference can be by the ping, it can be by the stratum, by configuration of the Vardiff etc ...

Consequently, it would not be unreasonable PAtrike that you are considering in your programming that we can also save the hash for currency, and that this is the one chosen to make the Auto Switch.

I think the problem is perfectly understood, and is the culprit that some currency changes are worse instead of better, something that should not happen, and that only happens because of what I just commented.

A program of this price and this level, with so many added functions (and many other bugs), should be closer to the reality of each currency, being able to obtain that hash per currency / pool, instead of only Protocol HASH, which in the end it is not precise at all.

Hi PAtrike I wanted to call attention to a known problem that the weeks go by and there is no solution.

MSI REMOTE, the program is not yours is from a third party, but it is not going well. In the configuration of AW you have to put the exact path where you will be in all the machines, that is, the same folder. Through another user I commented much higher, that sometimes it goes crazy and when the remote starts it closes, and the only way to fix it is to change the folder in the AW configuration, then change it in all the rigs and also change the rule of the programmer of tasks of each rig so that it starts well.

Well, this is happening to me at least once a week. If I take out a rig and change a card, it does not work anymore. Sometimes even without changing anything, just a restart, since it does not load at the beginning.

May I suggest you stop tinkering so much.  At some point, you have to make your rigs stable.  Constantly tweaking the overclocks, moving cards, all of this leads to instability.


Quote
Please have to find a more RELIABLE solution, this is now a patch that gives a lot of work at times. I can not imagine who has 10, 20, 30 rigs each time they fail and have to change the remote in ALL rigs and the rules of the task scheduler.

People who have a large number of rigs do not constantly tweak settings.  As I mentioned, you want to make your rigs stable.  It's ok to experiment, but go for the changes that really make a difference.

I think Patrike has done a fine job adding new coins as they become popular.  You have to realize that Awesome Miner has to depend on outside resources to get accurate coin data.  Many websites can't even agree on that data, so you have to strike a balance of quality versus quantity.

The plugin that Sootha created works really well, and I've contributed a couple of very large config.json files to the thread.  The problem is that most coins end up dying, and more importantly, their explorers go dead, or the coin gets deslisted, etc.

patrike,

Hello! New user / "Premium Edition" licensee.

I'm managing Z9s.

I've added the Z9s, set the default pools, set up API access, enabled auto-detect of ant miners...


Congrats!  I just got a Z9 Mini myself yesterday.


Quote
So, 2 questions:

1) If "switchpool" works when I send it manually, what else is required on the Z9 configuration beyond (A) enabling API access, (B) configuring pools under Options->Pools [not pool groups], (C) Under Antminer->Default Pools, configuring the pools from B in the menu, and then (D) trying to manually change the running pool on each Z9 (or the group of, but still), (E) setting each miner for equihash algorithm and cgminer compatible

Did you create a profit profile for the Z9 mini and apply it to the external miner?

Hi.

I tried to reproduce the issue by defining a Device Profile where I set "Max Fan Speed" to 66. I referenced this device profile from a Managed Miner that is based on Claymore Ethereum. When I start the mining software, I do see that "-fanmax 66" is being added to the command line.

Is there a specific property from the device profile that isn't passed correctly? Are you running with a Managed Miner or Managed Profit Miner? Please let me know as it might be of help in trying to find the specific issue you run into.

Hello, patrike!

See screenshots below:

https://ibb.co/g3eWNT Device Profile Settings
https://ibb.co/fW1NU8 Managed Miner Properties
https://ibb.co/j9cwp8 Details ver 5.3
https://ibb.co/mqhkhT Details ver 5.2.2

I did not change setup of a profile of the device neither before up-dating nor after up-dating of the program. Therefore a problem definitely not in incorrect values of my parameters. The problem arises only in case of up-dating of the version of the Awesome Miner Remote Agent program installed on the device. In version 5.2.2 everything works, in version 5.3 - does not work. The version of the main Awesome Miner program does not matter.

patrike,

Hello! New user / "Premium Edition" licensee.

I'm managing Z9s.

I've added the Z9s, set the default pools, set up API access, enabled auto-detect of ant miners...

The basic monitoring is working, however I'm unable to switch pools. When I try to switch pools by selecting a miner, right clicking, and choosing the new pool in the list, the miner goes offline as it appears to be reconfiguring, but it comes back up with whatever the first pool is every time.

If I manually send a "switchpool" command to the miners, it switches immediately without going offline and AwesomeMiner seems to show the change quickly.

I assume I'm missing something configuration wise for being able to switch it from awesome miner itself (not worried about profit switching yet, just want to get the basic functionalities going). This is with version 5.3.

So, 2 questions:

1) If "switchpool" works when I send it manually, what else is required on the Z9 configuration beyond (A) enabling API access, (B) configuring pools under Options->Pools [not pool groups], (C) Under Antminer->Default Pools, configuring the pools from B in the menu, and then (D) trying to manually change the running pool on each Z9 (or the group of, but still), (E) setting each miner for equihash algorithm and cgminer compatible

2) In the log file, there is an error I am not sure how to track down that may be related:

Here is a snippet:

As an aside, here's an interesting Z9 cgminer bug(?).. asking for the details of 'coin' via the API says that the hash method is sha256 despite it being an equihash device.

Code:
{"STATUS":[{"STATUS":"S","When":1531231620,"Code":78,"Msg":"CGMiner coin","Description":"cgminer 4.9.0"}],"COIN":[{"Hash Method":"sha256","Current Block Time":1531206055.763028,"Current Block Hash":"0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000","LP":true,"Network Difficulty":nan}],"id":1}

Thank you!

Thanks for all details. This is a unique behavior on the Z9 miner and you are correct that it's actually a bug in the API output from the miner itself. One of the API methods called "coins" is used by Awesome Miner to get the Network Difficulty from the ASIC miner. It's probably the least important of all API calls. The Z9 miner is responding with a invalid JSON format that simply cannot be parsed correctly. Awesome Miner considers the miner to not be working when this happens, but it should instead ignore the issue and move on.

I had a similar report yesterday from another Z9 user where it also started to act up after performing some pool operation. Thanks to your details here as well, I'm confident about the scenario now.

In the next update of Awesome Miner I will simply let Awesome Miner continue with all other API requests even if this one isn't valid. You can expect a new release within the next few days.

About the "sha256" part, there are actually many non-sha256 miners that do report sha256 here for some reason. This information is however not used by Awesome Miner.

1. There a way to backup all the custom info we have inputed into the software for re installation purposes?

2. Do you think having mining for "X amount of time each pool" will be in this programs future?

3. Is there anyway to change the gray text for the time active under the hash rate from gray to a more legible color? Or at least be able to customize it. When there is an update needed the red text is fantastic and very clear to read. I kinda dont like updating it because it makes it so much easier to read. Though I have old eyes.

4. Do you think "Dark Mode" will be in this programs future?
1) Awesome Miner stores all configuration in the file ConfigData.xml located in the folder %appdata%\AwesomeMiner. To copy the configuration from one computer to another, make sure that Awesome Miner isn't running and copy the file ConfigData.xml to the other computer.

2) Yes, that will be added in the future.

3) It's not configurable today, but I do know that some users use the "Customize Progress Field" feature to put the uptime in the progress field and configure it to have different colors depending on if the uptime is low or not.

4) That might get supported, but it's not prioritized right now. Today you can change the color theme, but the miner list is still white. I assume it's these white areas you want in a darker color as well.

Could you please change the "update remote" right-click option to be available on the group level at all times?  Would be much more convenient than having to update each miner individually.  Right now it appears to be available only if all miners are enabled and out of date.  If even one miner is disabled or offline the option is not available.

Yes, this is a very small change and I've had other users pointing out the same. This will be supported in one of the next releases.

Ok.. ever since I used the free version of awesome miner (now on enterprise version ), Ive always wondered one thing.... Why is not ALL of the coin information on ALL coins entered and automatically updated? I mean, lets get honest, to maximize profits, a user would have to fill out ALL of the stats for all of the coins, and even find the pool with highest hash rates. This would take WEEKS.  Im SURE this could be done automatically with awesome miner.  I know there is a free plugin for awesome miner, but as its free, its very quirky, and even then, leaves tons of coins without data. Can someone please explain?

I think Patrike has done a fine job adding new coins as they become popular.  You have to realize that Awesome Miner has to depend on outside resources to get accurate coin data.  Many websites can't even agree on that data, so you have to strike a balance of quality versus quantity.

The plugin that Sootha created works really well, and I've contributed a couple of very large config.json files to the thread.  The problem is that most coins end up dying, and more importantly, their explorers go dead, or the coin gets deslisted, etc.
First of all, welcome back puwaha!

You are correct that Awesome Miner depends on sources like WhatToMine.com and Coincalculators.io here, and once coins are added to their sites it automatically shows up in Awesome Miner as well. It's a significant effort (at least a part time job) if I would have to keep up with all coins, block explorers and exchanges myself. I do appreciate these community efforts and everyone contributing to make the overall mining experience better.

I've been thinking a lot about AW and it's a great software that requires a lot of attention, but it has a huge weak point.

They are the Benchmark that are made by protocol. I can see that I have a different HASH in two coins of the same protocol. It is very noticeable, I mino much neoscrypt, the same rig for a coin can give 5mhs, but for another currency neoscrypt can give a rate of 7 mhs.

Then thinking one realizes that it does not make sense that the switch is done only by the hash of the protocol, that's fine for the pools type Zpool and auto change.

But if I have 80 coins added, I need to know the hash for each of them, because although many are from the same protocol, they get different hashes. This difference can be by the ping, it can be by the stratum, by configuration of the Vardiff etc ...

Consequently, it would not be unreasonable PAtrike that you are considering in your programming that we can also save the hash for currency, and that this is the one chosen to make the Auto Switch.

I think the problem is perfectly understood, and is the culprit that some currency changes are worse instead of better, something that should not happen, and that only happens because of what I just commented.

A program of this price and this level, with so many added functions (and many other bugs), should be closer to the reality of each currency, being able to obtain that hash per currency / pool, instead of only Protocol HASH, which in the end it is not precise at all.
Just a thought (I've not explored this idea in detail) - if there are unique cases where you have one algorithm with two coins that perform different. Maybe it could be possible to add one of them as its own user defined algorithm, like NeoscryptX where you could force a coin to belong to this algorithm instead, and configure the mining software to handle NeoscryptX just like Neoscrypt. You could then benchmark it individually. Again, I've not really tested a setup like this, just sharing some ideas.

It's a quite special scenario here, so it might not make sense to redesign the entire profit switcher to handle individual coins if this only happens to a very few coins for very few users.

Hi.

I tried to reproduce the issue by defining a Device Profile where I set "Max Fan Speed" to 66. I referenced this device profile from a Managed Miner that is based on Claymore Ethereum. When I start the mining software, I do see that "-fanmax 66" is being added to the command line.

Is there a specific property from the device profile that isn't passed correctly? Are you running with a Managed Miner or Managed Profit Miner? Please let me know as it might be of help in trying to find the specific issue you run into.

Hello, patrike!

See screenshots below:

https://ibb.co/g3eWNT Device Profile Settings
https://ibb.co/fW1NU8 Managed Miner Properties
https://ibb.co/j9cwp8 Details ver 5.3
https://ibb.co/mqhkhT Details ver 5.2.2

I did not change setup of a profile of the device neither before up-dating nor after up-dating of the program. Therefore a problem definitely not in incorrect values of my parameters. The problem arises only in case of up-dating of the version of the Awesome Miner Remote Agent program installed on the device. In version 5.2.2 everything works, in version 5.3 - does not work. The version of the main Awesome Miner program does not matter.
Thanks for the update. I will try to reproduce again.

1. There a way to backup all the custom info we have inputed into the software for re installation purposes?

2. Do you think having mining for "X amount of time each pool" will be in this programs future?

3. Is there anyway to change the gray text for the time active under the hash rate from gray to a more legible color? Or at least be able to customize it. When there is an update needed the red text is fantastic and very clear to read. I kinda dont like updating it because it makes it so much easier to read. Though I have old eyes.

Cool ty. Ya for Dark Mode it would be the mass of white. It seems like more and more apps are starting to have this type of toggle and its been nice ever since. Blue Light filters work but I stare at screens all day. Doesnt need to be like gray or black, crex24''s green template is nice as well.

Thank you for the last version. JCE is working like a charm!

I have a (new) suggestion:
- Allow different pool groups to every profit miner.

Example:
I have some GTX1060 3GB. They dont mine ETH and ETC. But my GTX1070s do. For now I have to disable ETH and ETC in pools groups for all GPUs.

Is there a way to disable ETH/ETC only for one profit miner?

Hi, I needed some help. My awesome miner sometime turns off by itself. After a couple of hours, the server and the ring seem to be missing and I have to start it over. The rigs and the server are physically still powered on, but the mining stops. I have to manually open and click start to mining again.  This start to occurs when I move the server to different PC. The server from previous PC have been uninstalled.

Please give some suggestion on this issue.

 Thanks.

I tell you in another way. IS SPORADIC and occurs alone. Without doing anything suddenly gives that fault. That last order, I formatted the HD and reinstalled everything. IF the pool was wrong, it would not work in any rig, since it is the same poool for all rigs. It's a bug I've reported before.

In the end I had to install a replacement for Klaust, since Neoscrypt is one of the most used protocols with less miners within AW.

It can happen in any something, and it has already happened to me several times. When I fail in this machine, it was after a reboot, and I'm telling you, that neither formatting the equipment fixes it, and the pool information is the same for all platforms. If you see the video well, mino Neoscrypt and in the failure speaks of PHI which is another protocol, sometimes we say that some information is crossed to AW.

if we want better software we have to give all the possible information of the failures to the programmer to fix them, the problem of this error is that it is sporadic, and therefore difficult to reproduce by the programmer.

Trucobit... you have some crazy ideas and really edge-case problems... keep them coming.  I've been taking a break from posting, but I'll go back and see if we can help you.

I use all the functions, and I am in front of the computer more than 10 hours every day, it is normal that if I touch all the functions and use all the functions, it is normal that I find fault, and the good thing is that we have a good programmer that corrects The falls.

If you do not understand half of what I say, it is because you do not know how to handle the program, or you do not understand the problem of having different HASHs in each currency for the same protocol, so it is difficult for you to guess the change.

Either I'm crazy or you're a newbie, it must be one of those two things.

If you only use the basics functions with an ASIC, you will not find big problems, because you will only be using 10% of the functions. I use EVERYTHING, I take it to the limit and I suggest the solutions.

That for a same protocol there is a different hash in each currency, whether x17 or neoscrypt, makes the swtich not very accurate.

IF you only put asic, that's easy and for people with little knowledge, you only use a small part of the program

For the programmer a user like me is worth his weight in gold. Because others like you, only use a small part, and when there is something strange or worry about reporting the error, with which, PAtrike can not improve it.
