0.9.9 release please
Stability, easy to use is ok but everybody first always see on mhs and $
What to use in bat file to test latest version ccminer on your pool?
when CWIgm-0.9.9 is ready to be beta tested ...
depending on your machines - but if its a single system with its own worker on the pool - then -c <coin> --lodiff ...
otherwise - if it is a few machines on the one worker - leave the --lodiff parameter off ...
other settings to use are -i <intensity> depending on what card you use and many others ...
read through the readme.txt that comes with your welcome pack and download ... it explained the parameters you can use for the cards and systems you have ...

Crysx, i asked several times. Is there an option to turn off miner when certain temperature is met, for safety? If my rig temperatures jump for more then 15-20% then ussual something is wrong, and throttling has no use kinda. It will either work on lower temp or not work at all, no need to throttle GPU-s on which cooling started to be a problem. It's not a solution.
If you dont have it, why and it would be amazing to have it. Or do you know some other way how to turn off miner if i reach certain temperature.
there is no way to just turn off a card when something goes wrong ...
not even in the 5year old mature applications ( ccminer and sgminer ) that i know of ...
though that would be a great addition - but the 'why' part of your question is VERY difficult to answer ... the simple and short answer is - because its VERY difficult ...
the coding of such an implementation to just switch off one gpu is a very complex addition that even we are not looking at until CWIgm is a more mature platform ... this is why nvidia-smi was built by nvidia themselves ... it has MANY more functions to control the gpu - but i doubt it has an sensory option to switch off ONE gpu when it seems to die or reach a certain temperature target ... if nvidia themselves havent coded that into their own design - what makes you think we can do it easily? ...
tho this feature would be great to have - it is not slated to be integrated ... we WILL let you know if there is such an addition IF there is a way of doing promptly ... especially if our liaison communication with nvidia is such that it is a feature they will produce ... would be a great tool to have - you are right ...
for the time being - we wont commit to it ...
i think really the only way to alert you of anything that might be wrong - is the miner alert on the pool ... if the miner locks or cuts out - the pool sends and alert ...
thats the best we can do for now

I am not asking to turn OFF GPU, i ask to
CLOSE MINER APP xD I ask such a simple question or add a simple suggestion and after 10 times noone still understand what i try to say. I am asking, coz i realised by now that here is no such option, at least in miner that if miner reads temperature on some GPU that is Above one that we set, it just closes the miner app and rig stops mining, not to shut down GPU...
Can i make some .bat file that can read NVIDIA-smi sensors and if they are above certain temp, it sends command to close the "CWIgm" miner application?
I try to explain again:
OK miner is working, all is mining well. temperatures are around 55degrees with fans on Auto (fan curve). Then all of a sudden room starts getting quite hot coz my cooling system glitches and something goes wrong. All temperatures start rising, they are close to 85 degrees and fans are 100%, this is not healthy enviroment for GPU-s, gpus start throttling to lower the temps, mining experience is horrible.
SO to prevent all unecessary throttling and struggling in hot enviroment my
Miner APP will just close and all GPU-s will start cooling down, as they are no longer "Hashing" if i had command to turn off the APP on let's say 70 degrees. If my regular avg temps are around 55 i would put 70 as a safety number. Now my miner closes. I get notification my worker is IDLE, i go back home and see, damn my Cooling isnt working! I fix it up and start mining again. IF same shit happens, this situation repeats. I dont need GPU throttle mining.
listen,
we all understand what your asking but its not something that any miner will do at the moment. Im sure it can be programed to shut down at a certain temp but it seems your the only person ive seen on any thread, in any forum having this issue. If it was a major problem with lots of miners then it would be considered a priority software add, but at this point its probably not, nor may it ever be. Since we do understand and know the miners cannot do what you want, we have been trying to offer you other solutions to your issues. Its pretty simple.
you could always try to find third party software that will shut down the GPUs or your miner if it reaches a certain temp.
like you could install this program
https://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp/ which will shut down your computer if the GPU temp reaches a certain level. You could probably write a batch file and have it auto execute when the computer restarts making your miner restart once the computer is back up after turning off. Its a workaround for what your asking but may work for you.
Run a batch file at boot in Windows 8 and 10 users
Create a shortcut to the batch file.
Once the shortcut has been created, right-click the file and select Cut.
Press the Start button and type Run and press enter.
In the Run window, type shell:startup to open the Startup folder.
Once the Startup folder has been opened, click the Home tab at the top of the folder and select Paste to paste the shortcut into the folder.
