Mining#

Quick start
  • Pick a coin: Pearl (PRL) and QTC are currently selectable; choices depend on the client catalog and GPU compatibility.
  • Pick a pool: once a pool is picked, only the mining engines it can use are listed
  • Pick a mining engine: Choose an available version from the current catalog; pin a version or import a verified custom version where supported.
  • Enter your wallet: F2Pool takes only your pool username; Kryptex takes a username or a wallet address; other pools take a wallet address
  • Pick GPUs: all means every GPU, or enter just 0 or 0,1,2
  • Worker name: set your own prefix or add a random suffix in one click; Chinese characters, spaces and symbols are removed automatically
  • Click Start: hashrate and shares show up within seconds to a few minutes

Mining engines & versions
  • Auto (latest): Choose an available version from the current catalog; pin a version or import a verified custom version where supported.
  • Pin a version: the dropdown lists version numbers; pick the one you want to keep
  • Download on demand: Available peers in the same account and LAN can share verified download files; the server coordinates waiting and takeover. Predownload and installation are separate; Netbar master images still update manually.
  • Backup download route: The main website download uses R2; Mirror 2 uses DEDI. Check the homepage SHA-256 after downloading.
  • Matched to your GPU: NVIDIA and AMD cards only see engines they can run

Home screen & log
  • Total hashrate and shares: accepted / rejected on one screen
  • Pool balance and paid: shown right on the home screen
  • Every GPU: its own hashrate, temperature and power
  • Pool website: opens the pool's lookup page for your wallet in one click
  • Floating window: a small desktop window that always shows your hashrate
  • Log: shows only what matters to you; common errors come with the fix
  • Server notices: important notices appear inside the client

Settings#

System settings
  • Seamless auto-update: Automatic updates are optional and disabled in Netbar mode. Leaving Netbar does not turn them back on; update the master image manually.
  • Scheduled mining: set a start and stop time to mine on a daily schedule; leave the stop time empty to keep mining
  • Scheduled break: after 24 or 48 hours of nonstop mining, pause for 5 minutes and resume automatically
  • Reboot on GPU driver crash: if the GPU driver crashes, the PC reboots and keeps mining afterwards
  • One-click allow: if antivirus deletes the engine, one click adds Vminer to the exclusion list

Startup & background
  • Start with Windows: Vminer opens when the PC boots
  • Mine on launch: starts mining as soon as it opens — no click needed
  • Close to tray: clicking X hides it in the bottom-right corner; double-click the tray icon to reopen
  • Auto-reconnect: Choose Direct / CF. Direct keeps the selected node and your HTTP / SOCKS5 proxy. Interrupted connections retry by policy; temporary control-request failures do not actively stop healthy mining. Recovery depends on the network.
  • Crash recovery: Unexpected faults receive limited conditional retries. A manual mining stop or normal Netbar yielding is not a fault; check the logs if a problem persists.

Power, fans & overclocking

Vminer overclock settings: power and fan, core clock, core offset, memory clock, memory offset

  • Master switch: turn it off and Vminer never touches GPU settings
  • Power: one value for every card or per card, with each card's adjustable range shown
  • Fans: a fixed speed, or leave it to the driver
  • Core / memory overclock: core clock, core offset, memory clock and memory offset, each in ± MHz; a 10-minute trial reverts automatically if anything goes wrong
  • Back to defaults when idle: stop mining, close Vminer or turn the switch off and core / memory return to defaults
  • Reset clocks in one click: every GPU's core / memory clock goes back to factory
  • Tied to this PC's GPUs: change cards or PCs and old settings are dropped automatically

Internet cafés#

Internet café mode
  • Avoid: stops mining when a listed game opens and resumes when it closes
  • Sensitive: yields when someone touches the mouse or keyboard or the GPU gets busy; starts mining after 2 idle minutes
  • Full power: always mines, never yields — for dedicated rigs
  • Manual: doesn't mine at boot; waits for Fleet Control to wake it
  • Avoid list: popular games built in; add or remove your own
  • Auto power: 70% / 80% / 90% while mining, back to 100% when yielding
  • Silent background: no window at boot, bring it up with a hotkey; if it's closed it restarts itself

Diskless & master image
  • Put it in the master image: copy the whole Vminer folder — wallet, pool and mode go with it
  • Keep the master image open: Update the Netbar master image manually, locally or by its fixed worker name in Fleet Control. Resource distribution does not install a new version automatically.
  • Separate in Fleet Control: sign in once on the master image and every clone is its own machine
  • No GPU needed to set up: the master PC can be configured without a discrete GPU

Remote management#

Fleet Control
  • Phone or computer: Open app.vminers.com in a browser, in 8 languages. Sign in inside the client to manage the machines belonging to your account.
  • The whole fleet at a glance: online status, hashrate, temperature and power — offline machines stand out
  • Batch actions: Existing single-rig and batch actions can change pool, coin, mining software and Direct / CF. Options follow device capabilities and groups; unsupported legacy clients are skipped.
  • Remote GPU tuning: set power and fans in bulk; core / memory overclock per machine
  • Remote power: reboot or shut down; set start with Windows and mine on launch
  • Earnings: earnings of your machines by coin
  • Notices: the bell at the top right shows the latest notices
  • Offline queue: Queued does not mean executed. Immediate actions can expire; settings follow retention policy. Check delivery, receipts and actual state after reconnection.

Alert bot
  • Sent to Telegram: when a machine has a problem, the message goes straight to your phone
  • Three alerts: offline, hashrate drop, lost GPU
  • Only after 10 minutes: brief blips won't bother you
  • No alert when you stop it: stopping mining or shutting down yourself doesn't trigger an alert
  • In your language: uses the language set under My account in Fleet Control
  • Notices too: new Vminer notices are sent to you as well
Earnings lookup
  • Just enter a wallet: stats.vminers.com shows combined hashrate and earnings across pools
  • Received yesterday: see what actually arrived yesterday
  • GPU hashrate table: measured hashrate and power by GPU model on real rigs, updated hourly

Safety#

Safety & antivirus
  • One-click allow: if antivirus deletes the engine, one click in System settings adds the exclusion
  • Self-repair: a deleted engine downloads again automatically
  • Verified downloads: the client and engines are checked against their checksums after download
  • Earnings go to your own wallet: Vminer never holds your coins
