Netbar Mode#

Netbar Mode offers Full power, Avoid, Sensitive and Manual operation. Automatic yielding depends on the selected mode and its settings.

Remember to register and sign in to Fleet: click "Register / sign in to Fleet" at the top right. Sign in once on the master machine and every cloned PC is listed under your account - see the whole cafe and start/stop it from your phone. Manual mode is woken from Fleet, so signing in is required.

  • Full power: always mining, for dedicated rigs.
  • Avoid (default): mining stops when a listed game starts and resumes when it closes. Add newly installed games to the list.
  • Sensitive: yields according to the GPU load, foreground application and optional mouse / keyboard rules in Netbar settings. Mining resumes once the idle and resume conditions are met; the configured settings determine the details.
  • Manual: boots hidden and does not mine until woken from the web console or started locally; once mining it no longer yields, until shutdown or a manual stop.
  • Administrator required: netbar mode can only be turned on when Vminer runs as administrator (right-click Vminer → "Run as administrator"); without it, sensitive mode can't read GPU usage. If netbar PCs should also start as administrator after boot, turn off UAC in Windows.
  • Power and overclocking: Set power, fans and overclocking on the OC page. Only when Enable OC is on does Netbar yielding restore the managed settings to defaults and mining resume reapply your OC settings. With OC off, Vminer does not change these GPU settings.

Diskless cafes: set one machine up, copy the whole Vminer folder into the master image, and every PC starts with the same configuration.

Automatic updates are unavailable while Netbar mode is enabled. Update the client version in the master disk image manually; alternatively, find the master disk's fixed worker name in the fleet console and click Manual update.

Turning Netbar Mode off does not turn automatic client updates back on; enable them manually in System Settings if needed.
