（一）AMD 卡设置提醒

For old AMD cards, Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12 is required for best performance and compatibility.
For AMD 4xx/5xx cards (Polaris) you can use any recent drivers.
For AMD cards, set the following environment variables, especially if you have 2GB cards:
GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100

对于AMD卡，Catalyst (Crimson) 15.12的驱动套件可使表现和兼容性发挥到最佳。
对于AMD 4xx/5xx的卡（北极星架构），你可以用任何的显卡驱动。
对于AMD卡，设置下列的环境变量，尤其是你的卡是2GB的。
GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
（二）多卡系统设置提醒

For multi-GPU systems, set Virtual Memory size in Windows at least 16 GB (better more):
"Computer Properties / Advanced System Settings / Performance / Advanced / Virtual Memory".

对于多显卡系统的，在Windows下，把虚拟内存至少设置到16 GB（多一点更好）："Computer Properties / Advanced System Settings / Performance / Advanced / Virtual Memory"
（三）作者抽水详细说明

This miner is free-to-use, however, current developer fee is 1% for Ethereum-only mining mode (-mode 1) and 1.5% for dual mining mode (-mode 0), every hour the miner mines for 36 or 54 seconds for developer.
For all 2GB cards and 3GB cards in Windows10 (they cannot mine ETH/ETC anymore) devfee is 0%, so on these cards you can mine all ETH forks without devfee, this miner is completely free in this case.
If some cards are 2GB and some >2GB, 2GB cards still mine for you during devfee time, only cards that have more than 2GB memory will be used for devfee mining. Same for 3GB cards in Windows10. Miner displays appropriate messages during startup.
Second coin (Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal/Blake2s/Keccak) is mined without developer fee.
So the developer fee is 0...1.5%, if you don't agree with the dev fee - don't use this miner, or use "-nofee" option.
Attempts to cheat and remove dev fee will cause a bit slower mining speed (same as "-nofee 1") though miner will show same hashrate.
Miner cannot just stop if cheat is detected because creators of cheats would know that the cheat does not work and they would find new tricks. If miner does not show any errors or slowdowns, they are happy.

这个软件使用是免费的。开发者费用ETH单挖1% (-mode 1)，双挖1.5%(-mode 0)，换句话说，每个小时有36秒或54秒是给作者地址在挖的，这个概念对下文的理解非常很重要。
对于所有的2GB和3GB卡的用户，在Windows 10下面（已不能挖ETH和ETC）开发者费用为0%，所以有这些卡的用户可以免费挖各种ETH及其分叉币。
如果你的矿机里面有些卡是2GB 有些大于 2GB，只有大于2G的那部分，会被用作给作者挖矿来付费。这个对于Windows 10下的3GB卡是一样的。软件会在启动的时候显示相关信息。
双挖的时候，除了ETH之外的第二个币种是不收开发者费用的，所以双挖一共加起来1.5%ETH开发者费用。如果你对本软件的费用表示不满，那你就别用，或者使用"-nofee"选项（没有费用选项）。
如果你打算做点小动作，攻破本软件或者试图移除开发者费用，你的挖矿效率会降低（这个和"-nofee 1"选项的效果是一样的），即使软件显示的本地算力是相同的。
挖矿软件如果监测到有上述作弊行为，随时会停止因为作弊者一旦知道作弊被发现了就会采取其他的作弊方式。如果软件不报错或者不慢下来，他们会很开心。
（四）适用系统说明

This version is for recent AMD videocards only: 7xxx, 2xx and 3xx, 2GB or more. Recent nVidia videocards are supported as well.
There are builds for Windows x64 and for Linux x64 (tested on Ubuntu 14.04). No 32-bit support.

下面这个版本只对针对于近期的AMD显卡：7xxx, 2xx 和 3xx, 2GB 及以上。同时适用于nVidia的显卡。
仅对于Windows x64 和Linux x64（Ubuntu 14.04上的在测试中），没有针对32位系统的支持。
四. 命令行选项及配置文件
（一）命令行选项

COMMAND LINE OPTIONS:

-epool Ethereum pool address. Only Stratum protocol is supported for pools. Miner supports all pools that are compatible with Dwarfpool proxy and accept Ethereum wallet address directly.

For solo mining, specify "http://" before address, note that this mode is not intended for proxy or HTTP pools, also "-allpools 1" will be set automatically in this mode.

Note: The miner supports all Stratum versions for Ethereum, HTTP mode is necessary for solo mining only.

Using any proxies will reduce effective hashrate by at least 1%, so connect miner to Stratum pools directly. Using HTTP pools will reduce effective hashrate by at least 5%.

Miner also supports SSL/TLS encryption for all data between miner and pool (if pool supports encryption over stratum), it significantly improves security.

To enable encryption, use "ssl://" or "stratum+ssl://" prefix (or "tls" instead of "ssl"), for example: "-epool ssl://eu1.ethermine.org:5555"

-ewal Your Ethereum wallet address. Also worker name and other options if pool supports it.

Pools that require "Login.Worker" instead of wallet address are not supported directly currently, but you can use "-allpools 1" option to mine there.

-epsw Password for Ethereum pool, use "x" as password.

-eworker Worker name, it is required for some pools.

-esmEthereum Stratum mode. 0 - eth-proxy mode (for example, dwarpool.com), 1 - qtminer mode (for example, ethpool.org),

2 - miner-proxy mode (for example, coinotron.com), 3 - nicehash mode. 0 is default.
-ethaEthereum algorithm mode for AMD cards. 0 - optimized for fast cards, 1 - optimized for slow cards, 2 - for gpu-pro Linux drivers. -1 - autodetect (default, automatically selects between 0 and 1).

You can also set this option for every card individually, for example "-etha 0,1,0".

-asm(AMD cards only) enables assembler GPU kernels. In this mode some tuning is required even in ETH-only mode, use "-dcri" option or or "+/-" keys in runtime to set best speed.

Specify "-asm 0" to disable this option. You can also specify values for every card, for example "-asm 0,1,0". Default value is "1".

If ASM mode is enabled, miner must show "GPU #x: algorithm ASM" at startup.

Check "FINE-TUNING" section below for additional notes.

NEW: added alternative assembler kernels for Tahiti, Tonga, Ellesmere, Baffin cards for ETH-only mode. Use them if you get best speed at "-dcri 1" (i.e. you cannot find speed peak), use "-asm 2" option to enable this mode.

-oldkernels (AMD cards only) specify "-oldkernels 1" to use old-style GPU kernels from v10, they can be more stable for hard OC and custom BIOSes.

-ethiEthereum intensity. Default value is 8, you can decrease this value if you don't want Windows to freeze or if you have problems with stability. The most low GPU load is "-ethi 0".

Also "-ethi" now can set intensity for every card individually, for example "-ethi 1,8,6".

You can also specify negative values, for example, "-ethi -8192", it exactly means "global work size" parameter which is used in official miner.

-eresthis setting is related to Ethereum mining stability. Every next Ethereum epoch requires a bit more GPU memory, miner can crash during reallocating GPU buffer for new DAG.

To avoid it, miner reserves a bit larger GPU buffer at startup, so it can process several epochs without buffer reallocation.

This setting defines how many epochs miner must foresee when it reserves GPU buffer, i.e. how many epochs will be processed without buffer reallocation. Default value is 2.

-allpools Specify "-allpools 1" if miner does not want to mine on specified pool (because it cannot mine devfee on that pool), but you agree to use some default pools for devfee mining.

Note that if devfee mining pools will stop, entire mining will be stopped too.

-allcoins Specify "-allcoins 1" to be able to mine Ethereum forks, in this mode miner will use some default pools for devfee Ethereum mining.

Note that if devfee mining pools will stop, entire mining will be stopped too.

Miner has to use two DAGs in this mode - one for Ethereum and one for Ethereum fork, it can cause crashes because DAGs have different sizes.

Therefore for this mode it is recommended to specify current Ethereum epoch (or a bit larger value),

for example, "-allcoins 47" means that miner will expect DAG size for epoch #47 and will allocate appropriate GPU buffer at starting, instead of reallocating bigger GPU buffer (may crash) when it starts devfee mining.

Another option is to specify "-allcoins -1", in this mode miner will start devfee round immediately after start and therefore will get current epoch for Ethereum, after that it will be able to mine Ethereum fork.

If you mine ETC on some pool that does not accept wallet address but requires Username.Worker instead, the best way is to specify "-allcoins etc", in this mode devfee mining will be on ETC pools and DAG won't be recreated at all.

-ethtTime period between Ethereum HTTP requests for new job in solo mode, in milliseconds. Default value is 200ms.

-eratesend Ethereum hashrate to pool. Default value is "1", set "-erate 0" if you don't want to send hashrate.

-estalesend Ethereum stale shares to pool, it can increase effective hashrate a bit. Default value is "1", set "-estale 0" if you don't want to send stale shares.

-dpool Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal pool address. Use "http://" prefix for HTTP pools, "stratum+tcp://" for Stratum pools. If prefix is missed, Stratum is assumed.

Decred: both Stratum and HTTP are supported. Siacoin: both Stratum and HTTP are supported, though note that not all Stratum versions are supported currently. Lbry: only Stratum is supported.

-dwalYour Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal wallet address or worker name, it depends on pool.

-dpsw Password for Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal pool.

-di GPU indexes, default is all available GPUs. For example, if you have four GPUs "-di 02" will enable only first and third GPUs (#0 and #2).

You can also turn on/off cards in runtime with "0"..."9" keys and check current statistics with "s" key.

For systems with more than 10 GPUs: use letters to specify indexes more than 9, for example, "a" means index 10, "b" means index 11, etc; also "a", "b", and "c" keys allow you to turn on/off GPU #10, #11 and #12 in runtime.

-gserthis setting can improve stability on multi-GPU systems if miner hangs during startup. It serializes GPUs initalization routines. Use "-gser 1" to serailize some of routines and "-gser 2" to serialize all routines.

Using values higher than 2 allows you also to set custom delay between DAG generation on GPUs, for example, "-gser 5" means same as "-gser 2" and also adds 3sec delay between DAG generation (can be useful for buggy drivers and/or weak PSU).

Default value is "0" (no serialization, fast initialization).

-modeSelect mining mode:

"-mode 0" (default) means dual Ethereum + Decred/Siacoin/Lbry mining mode.

"-mode 1" means Ethereum-only mining mode. You can set this mode for every card individually, for example, "-mode 1-02" will set mode "1" for first and third GPUs (#0 and #2).

For systems with more than 10 GPUs: use letters to specify indexes more than 9, for example, "a" means index 10, "b" means index 11, etc.

-dcoinselect second coin to mine in dual mode. Possible options are "-dcoin dcr", "-dcoin sc", "-dcoin lbc", "-dcoin pasc", "-dcoin blake2s", "-dcoin keccak". Default value is "dcr".

-dcriDecred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal intensity, or Ethereum fine-tuning value in ETH-only ASM mode. Default value is 30, you can adjust this value to get the best Decred/Siacoin/Lbry mining speed without reducing Ethereum mining speed.

You can also specify values for every card, for example "-dcri 30,100,50".

You can change the intensity in runtime with "+" and "-" keys and also use "x" key to select single GPU for intensity adjustment.

For example, by default (-dcri 30) 390 card shows 29MH/s for Ethereum and 440MH/s for Decred. Setting -dcri 70 causes 24MH/s for Ethereum and 850MH/s for Decred.

Use this option in ETH-only ASM mode for fine tuning, read "FINE-TUNING" section below.

If you did not specify "-dcri" option in ETH-only ASM mode, miner will detect best -dcri values automatically, you can also press "z" key to do it.

-dcrtTime period between Decred/Siacoin HTTP requests for new job, in seconds. Default value is 5 seconds.

-ftimefailover main pool switch time, in minutes, see "Failover" section below. Default value is 30 minutes, set zero if there is no main pool.

-wd watchdog option. Default value is "-wd 1", it enables watchdog, miner will be closed (or restarted, see "-r" option) if any thread is not responding for 1 minute or OpenCL call failed.

Specify "-wd 0" to disable watchdog.

-rRestart miner mode. "-r 0" (default) - restart miner if something wrong with GPU. "-r -1" - disable automatic restarting. -r >20 - restart miner if something

wrong with GPU or by timer. For example, "-r 60" - restart miner every hour or when some GPU failed.

"-r 1" closes miner and execute "reboot.bat" file ("reboot.bash" or "reboot.sh" for Linux version) in the miner directory (if exists) if some GPU failed.

So you can create "reboot.bat" file and perform some actions, for example, reboot system if you put this line there: "shutdown /r /t 5 /f".

-minspeedminimal speed for ETH, in MH/s. If miner cannot reach this speed for 5 minutes for any reason, miner will be restarted (or "reboot.bat" will be executed if "-r 1" is set). Default value is 0 (feature disabled).

You can also specify negative values if you don't want to restart miner due to pool connection issues; for example, "-minspeed -50" will restart miner only if it cannot reach 50Mh/s at good pool connection.

-retrydelaydelay, in seconds, between connection attempts. Default values is "20". Specify "-retrydelay -1" if you don't need reconnection, in this mode miner will exit if connection is lost.

-dbgdebug log and messages. "-dbg 0" - (default) create log file but don't show debug messages.

"-dbg 1" - create log file and show debug messages. "-dbg -1" - no log file and no debug messages.

-logfiledebug log file name. After restart, miner will append new log data to the same file. If you want to clear old log data, file name must contain "noappend" string.

If missed, default file name will be used. You can also use this option to specify folder for log files, use slash at the end to do it, for example, "-logfile logs\".

-logsmaxsizemaximal size of debug log files, in MB. At every start the miner checks all files in its folder, selects all files that contain "_log.txt" string and removes oldest files if summary files size is larger than specified value.

Specify "-logsmaxsize 0" to cancel old logs removal. Default value is 1000 (i.e. about 1GB of log files are allowed).

-nofeeset "1" to cancel my developer fee at all. In this mode some optimizations are disabled so mining speed will be slower by about 3%.

By enabling this mode, I will lose 100% of my earnings, you will lose only about 2% of your earnings.

So you have a choice: "fastest miner" or "completely free miner but a bit slower".

If you want both "fastest" and "completely free" you should find some other miner that meets your requirements, just don't use this miner instead of claiming that I need

to cancel/reduce developer fee, saying that 1% developer fee is too much for this miner and so on.

-benchmarkbenchmark mode, specify "-benchmark 1" to see hashrate for your hardware. You can also specify epoch number for benchmark, for example, "-benchmark 110".

-lilow intensity mode. Reduces mining intensity, useful if your cards are overheated. Note that mining speed is reduced too.

More value means less heat and mining speed, for example, "-li 10" is less heat and mining speed than "-li 1". You can also specify values for every card, for example "-li 3,10,50".

Default value is "0" - no low intensity mode.

-lidaglow intensity mode for DAG generation, it can help with OC or weak PSU. Supported values are 0, 1, 2, 3, more value means lower intensity. Example: "-lidag 1".

You can also specify values for every card, for example "-lidag 1,0,3". Default value is "0" (no low intensity for DAG generation).

-ejobtimeoutjob timeout for ETH, in minutes. If miner does not get new jobs for this time, it will disconnect from pool. Default value is 10.

-djobtimeoutjob timeout for second coin in dual mode, in minutes. If miner does not get new jobs for this time, it will disconnect from pool. Default value is 30.

-ttset target GPU temperature. For example, "-tt 80" means 80C temperature. You can also specify values for every card, for example "-tt 70,80,75".

You can also set static fan speed if you specify negative values, for example "-tt -50" sets 50% fan speed. Specify zero to disable control and hide GPU statistics.

"-tt 1" (default) does not manage fans but shows GPU temperature and fan status every 30 seconds. Specify values 2..5 if it is too often.

Note: for NVIDIA cards in Linux OS temperature management is not supported, only temperature monitoring is supported.

Note: for Linux gpu-pro drivers, miner must have root access to manage fans, otherwise only monitoring will be available.

-ttdcrreduce Decred/Siacoin/Lbry/Pascal intensity automatically if GPU temperature is above specified value. For example, "-ttdcr 80" reduces Decred intensity if GPU temperature is above 80C.

You can see current Decred intensity coefficients in detailed statistics ("s" key). So if you set "-dcri 50" but Decred/Siacoin intensity coefficient is 20% it means that GPU currently mines Decred/Siacoin at "-dcri 10".

You can also specify values for every card, for example "-ttdcr 80,85,80". You also should specify non-zero value for "-tt" option to enable this option.

It is a good idea to set "-ttdcr" value higher than "-tt" value by 3-5C.

-ttlireduce entire mining intensity (for all coins) automatically if GPU temperature is above specified value. For example, "-ttli 80" reduces mining intensity if GPU temperature is above 80C.

You can see if intensity was reduced in detailed statistics ("s" key).

You can also specify values for every card, for example "-ttli 80,85,80". You also should specify non-zero value for "-tt" option to enable this option.

It is a good idea to set "-ttli" value higher than "-tt" value by 3-5C.

-tstopset stop GPU temperature, miner will stop mining if GPU reaches specified temperature. For example, "-tstop 95" means 95C temperature. You can also specify values for every card, for example "-tstop 95,85,90".

This feature is disabled by default (ru). You also should specify non-zero value for "-tt" option to enable this option.

If it turned off wrong card, it will close miner in 30 seconds.

You can also specify negative value to close miner immediately instead of stopping GPU, for example, "-tstop -95" will close miner as soon as any GPU reach 95C temperature.

-tstartset start temperature for overheated GPU that was previously stopped with "-tstop" option. For example, "-tstop 95 -tstart 50" disables GPU when it reaches 95C and re-enables it when it reaches 50C.

You can also specify values for every card, for example "-tstart 50,55,50". Note that "-tstart" option value must be less than "-tstop" option value.

This feature is disabled by default ("-tstart 0"). You also should specify non-zero value for "-tt" option to enable this option.

-fanmaxset maximal fan speed, in percents, for example, "-fanmax 80" will set maximal fans speed to 80%. You can also specify values for every card, for example "-fanmax 50,60,70".

This option works only if miner manages cooling, i.e. when "-tt" option is used to specify target temperature. Default value is "100".
