Avalon and Baikal Remote Management

Dan Lawrence -

Foreman has been updated with the following new features and improvements:

New Features

Avalon Support

Full remote support for all Canaan SHA-256 Avalon A10 and A11 miners has been added! This allows users to monitor, remotely reboot, and change pools directly from Foreman.

Avalon 1047 Monitoring and Management

The following miners are supported:

  • Avalon A1026 (30 THs, 67 J/TH, 2070W)
  • Avalon A1047 (37 THs, 62.5 J/TH, 2380W)
  • Avalon A1066 (50 THs, 63 J/TH, 3250W)
  • Avalon A1066 Pro (55 THs, 60 J/TH, 3300W)
  • Avalon A1146 (56 THs, 57 J/TH, 3192W)
  • Avalon A1146 Pro (63 THs, 52 J/TH, 3276W)
  • Avalon A1166 (68 THs, 47 J/TH, 3196W)
  • Avalon A1166 Pro (81 THs, 42 J/TH, 3400W)

Monitoring is fully supported for Avalon 7XX, 8XX, and 9XX models.  Remote management, however, is not supported at this time (contact us if you have one of these miners and would like to have it added).

Baikal Support

Additionally, full remote support for all Baikal miners has been added!

Baikal Giant+ 2000 Monitoring and Management

The following miners are supported:

  • Baikal BK-B (Blake256R8, Blake256R14, Blake2b, Lbry, Pascal)
  • Baikal BK-D (Blake256R8, Blake256R14, Dual, Lbry, Pascal)
  • Baikal BK-G28 (X11, Quark, Qubit, Myriad-Groestl, Nist5, Skein, X11Gost, Groestl)
  • Baikal BK-N (CryptoNight, CryptoNight-Lite)
  • Baikal BK-N+ (CryptoNight, CryptoNight-Lite)
  • Baikal BK-N70 (CryptoNight, CryptoNight-Lite)
  • Baikal BK-N240 (CryptoNight, CryptoNight-Lite)
  • Baikal BK-X (X11, Quark, Qubit, Myriad-Groestl, Nist5, Skein, X11Gost, Groestl)
  • Baikal Giant A900 (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit)
  • Baikal Giant+ A2000 (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit)
  • Baikal Cube (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit)
  • Baikal Mini (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit)
  • Baikal Quad Mini (X11, X13, X14, X15, Quark, Qubit)

The algorithms for these can be configured from the dashboard as well. Depending on the miner, the following Baikal algorithms have been mapped and will be presented to the user:

  • blake256r8
  • blake256r14
  • decred
  • cryptonite
  • cryptonite-lite
  • groestl
  • lbry
  • myr-gr
  • nist5
  • pascal
  • quark
  • qubit
  • sia
  • skein
  • vcash
  • x11
  • x11gost
  • x13
  • x14
  • x15
Full Avalon and Baikal support requires Pickaxe version ≥ 3.11.0.  Linux users are auto-upgraded, and Windows users are auto-upgraded if running the Windows Agent.

Bug Fixes

Fixed Missing Miner Parameters

Miner credentials are now carried through when a bulk import of ASICs is performed.

Fixed Innosilicon Scan

Corrected the ports that are used post-Innosilicon scan to use both the web and API ports.

Corrected Miner Details Page

Addressed an issue related to the miner details being displayed inaccurately when GPUs have no temperatures.
