Antminer S9 support

[SyDemo]

Hello. Is it possible to use the multiminer with the Antminer s9? When I try to use script rpc-api-test.sh on S9, the answer is FAILURE: devs RPC call failed (STATUS=E returned). Why? Where is my problem?

[nwoolls]

Try searching online for how to enable RPC API with the S9. I don't have one to try myself.

e.g.: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1525451.0;prev_next=next

[SyDemo]

RPC API enabled. Other software successfully connecting and work with S9.

@SyDemo unfortunately I cannot say without access to a test system. MultiMiner just consumes the standard CGMiner / BFGMiner RPC and has worked fine with miners (that I know of) until now. Works fine with other AntMiners.

Hello, any updates on this? I have just pludded in my S9. i can log into it through the network but multminer isnt detecting it. running latest version on windows 10

[nwoolls]

@zaphbee no update - I have no access to an S9 for testing. If you can provide TeamViewer, VNC or RDP access to a network & PC where I can test things send me an email at nwoolls @ gmail.com to schedule.

This is a better anydesk to use

Unfortunately I do not think MultiMiner will be able to monitor the AntMiner S9 with the current BMMiner provided by Bitmain. MultiMiner uses the devs and devdetails API commands to get information about the mining devices and BMMiner returns no information for these.

If you'd like to see support for the S9 in MultiMiner I'd recommend reaching out to Bitmain about the lack of support for the devs and devdetails API commands in their CGMiner fork.

Hi, Is it possible that you can add the usage of the stats API command to get the chip temperatures?

[nwoolls]

MultiMiner already uses the stats API command, but unless the Network Device in question returns results for the devs command the device will not show.

[JayKayJK]

ApiReport.txt

seems that the devscommand can return something based on the log i have attached from another miner monitoring tool. Hope this helps.

[nwoolls]

@JayKayJK it returns with the message No instead of any actual device information:

API command: devs
{
  "STATUS": [
    {
      "STATUS": "E",
      "When": 1517454313,
      "Code": 10,
      "Msg": "No ",
      "Description": "bmminer 1.0.0"
    }
  ],
  "id": 1
}

[JayKayJK]

Yes, but it does return the chip temperatures with the statscommand

@JayKayJK Network Devices that do not return information for the devs command are not supported. At this time that includes the S9. This is similar to the older BTC Gardens units:

[JayKayJK]

@nwoolls Alright. Thanks for the explanation. Any ideas whether they will be supported anytime soon?

[Jubsika]

Hello, Can you tell me how to use API? Fist as i know I need port which I will connect with API. Where Can I see it? I also saw network.conf file but there is only ip adresses Also API access is W:0/0

I'm trying use port 17790 as i saw in google. for example I'm trying run http://192.168.x.x/17790/api/miners in my browser, but nothing happened.

Can u tell me what is a incorrect except port? also where i can see port?

Thank you

[nwoolls]

The S9 is not supported unless / until BMMiner responds to the DEVS API command appropriately:
