Fan curves work through USB as well. Its the same parameters we use for the full node miner as well just didn't document them in git.

For a full list just type ./apollo-miner -h

FYI we are working on completely revamped support/guides/faq section on our site. These threads are obviously getting out of control, and do apologize for all the digging new users have to go through!

Thanks for that! Much appreciated!

I tried this code (no miner running at the time, in case that matters) with the included result:

Code:

./apollo-miner -h
apollo-miner 09bb0bf 2021-11-22, msp ver 0xd166
Use "--help" switch to print command line options.

ERROR: Invalid command line:
Unknown command line option: -h

but using the --help command results in a lot of interesting output:

Code:

Apollo-Standard_software/linux-x86_64$ ./apollo-miner --help
apollo-miner 09bb0bf 2021-11-22, msp ver 0xd166
Use "--help" switch to print command line options.

Most of it I don't understand, for some I may have a rudimentary understanding.

So I wonder if I interpret these following lines correctly:

Code:

-fan_pwm_low <x> Fan PWM if temperature <= fan_temp_low (default: 1)
-fan_pwm_hi <x> Fan PWM if temperature => fan_temp_hi (default: 100)

when I make the assumption that (default: 1) means that the stock ASIC fan lowest speed is already turned down to the minimum speed that PWM will allow?
In other words, the stock miner fan will run at 1800rpm no matter how much additional cooling I apply and no matter what software setting changes are made?
