@mineryyyyy

Find a right //./COMxx name for LTC only is a pain, so that is why we developed a GUI for that. GUI uses a script to detect miners and ports, than use the right port automatically.


Is there anything I can do to get the GUI to be more stable with LTC only?  I am running 55 DualMiners and I would say an average of 6 of them go idle after 10 minutes or so.  The only thing I can do is to restart the software/computer and then they all mine fine for 10 minutes.  I tried setting the LTC Delayed Start to various numbers but it didn't seem to help anything.  Other than the few going idle these things run great - nice and cool 70k all day.  
What hubs are you using? How many units per hub?

6 Orico P10-U2 with 9 DualMiners per Hub and then 3 of the hubs plugging into a 7th Orico.

First I would begin by connecting one strip at a time and testing for 10 minutes or so to see if any idle. Also make sure you are power cycling like in the image below. Systematically test each hub/DM as you add them. It may take a little time but should get you with a stable setup, and isolate any problematic variables.

I have 99 units with p10-u2 hubs running on raspberry pi. I will be posting a guide soon for others who are interested.
