Enhanced profit switching options

Version 4.3.5

** Release Date 2018-07-07 **

Changes

Profit switching functionality extension as it now supports per coin options for intensity control etc this allows you to mine a coin and figure out best parameters such as intensity and have separate ones for each

amd.txt
nvida.txt, cpu.txt
minhashrate, Not all coins mine the same rate
hdiff, hashdrop setting
nanoipoolapi moved into main script so only a single executable is needed
if grafana is enabled and influx database modules are not installed script will prompt for instalation permision

Note

If you enable profit switching you MUST create default_amd.txt, default_nvida.txt and default_cpu.txt config files
These will be used if you do not specify anything in the pool config.

Profit Switching and dead thread check

Version 4.3.4

Release Date 2018-07-04

Changes

Added pool switching based on profit stats from http://minecryptonight.net/, Triggered at startup and at restart of miner, Uses 1Hr stats, stats are saved in the folder as profit.json if you want to review these are also in your logfiles
Added dead thread check for when xmr-stak is returning null data due to dead thread, triggers card restart and test
Added generate_pool.json.ps1, This creates an example pools.json file for profit switching

Notes

generate_pool.json.ps1, right mouse click and choose run with powershell
This generates an example pools.json using my own pools, whilst I would be grateful for some hashes this is here to create an example pools.json file for you to edit you are welcome to use them for testing

You can edit either the powershell script or the pools.json file depending on your preference however you must ensure you comment out entire sections

• pools.json, Can have items commented out using / or # sections start { and end with }, these are verticaly aligned
• generate_pool.json.ps1, standard powershell commenting

if you get a failure to read file message you have most likely made a mistake, if its a bug please report via slack channel

Improved device reset handling and Nanopool stats to screen and grafana

Version 4.3.0
Release Date: 2018-06-16

If your using Nanopool this will now report poolside stats, prices and predicted probability, it does this
by reading your wallet address and worker id from your pools.txt file, please disable nanopool stats if you
do not wish this to happen, this information is not sent anywhere, I respect your privacy if you have any
concerns please contact me

If you have another pool which you would like included in a future release please add a request with the url
for their api documentation

improved device reset code, introduced third party app to test gpu's named 'clinfo.exe', I have included this
as an executable however you can also compile from source

Changes:
Added nanopool api refresh rate, minimum 10, default 30, too often and you will be blocked

Added clinfo utility to query opencl devices after a reset, exposes error's before trying to start STAK
if there are issues, using this to work around the wmi refresh problem that causes devices to show
as ok when they are in error state

Removed additional card test and 15 second wait time after device reset as clinfo takes care of
exposing device errors

Logging device reset times changed to notification level 4, set your notification level to at least 4
to send this data

Required
clinfo.exe, executable included, Source https://github.com/Oblomov/clinfo
