If run without parameters, miner will start mining with 75% of available virtual cores on NiceHash. Use parameter -h to learn about available parameters:
-h Print this help and quit
-l [location] Location (Stratum server:port)
-u [username] Username (bitcoinaddress)
-p [password] Password (default: x)
-t [num_thrds] Number of threads (default: number of sys cores)
-d [level] Debug print level (0 = print all, 5 = fatal only, default: 2)
-b [hashes] Run in benchmark mode (default: 100 hashes)
-a [port] Local API port (default: 0 = do not bind)
Example to run benchmark:
nheqminer_x64_AVX.exe -b
Example to run with full logging (including network dump):
nheqminer_x64_AVX.exe -d 0
Example to mine with your own BTC address and worker1 on USA server:
nheqminer_x64_AVX.exe -l usa -u YOUR_BTC_ADDRESS_HERE.worker1
Example to mine with your own BTC address and worker1 on EU server, using 6 threads:
nheqminer_x64_AVX.exe -l eu -u YOUR_BTC_ADDRESS_HERE.worker1 -t 6
Note: if you have a 4-core CPU with hyper threading enabled (total 8 threads) it is best to run with only 6 threads (experimental benchmarks shows that best results are achieved with 75% threads utilized)
