Select Your Miner
In the dashboard, select the miners you wish to install LuxOS on.
Note: if you have another third party firmware installed you are able to uninstall via Commander as well.
Install LuxOS
After selecting the miner, click the "Install LuxOS" button.
Before installation, you have the option to “Configure Installation”, which allows you to enable features like Autotuner and Advanced Thermal Management (ATM). These can also be configured after installation. Wait for the installation process to complete, which may take a few minutes. Note* You can decide how many parallel machines to install at one time by using the settings (top right) within Commander. Default is 10 machines at a time.
Enable Auto-Tuner
Select the miners you want to configure. Once selected, press the “Configure Miners” button. Under “Power” navigate to “Autotuner Mode” and select “Enable” Press “Review” then “Apply” Autotuner will find the lowest possible power consumption to maintain a desired frequency (hashrate)
Use Advanced Thermal Management
Go back to that same configuration menu but this time navigate to “ATM” which stands for “Advanced Thermal Management” Select the “Max Profile” you would like your miner to attempt to push to. It will only push to this level if it is able to do so while remaining below the designated “hot board temperature” which can be set under “general settings”. We recommend the default to avoid damaging your miners. ATM will find the highest possible profile to run (up to the max profile) while maintaining a safe temperature.
Leaving min profile as undefined will allow your machine to under clock itself as much as necessary to get to a safe temperature.
You can visit the Advanced Thermal Management and Recommended Settings documentation pages to learn more about this feature.
