PureMiner v8 — Quick Start Guide

Step 1 — First Run

1. Install both .NET runtimes from: PureMiner\Install_Runtime\

2. Run PureMiner.App.exe

3. Open your browser, go to: https://localhost:2083

4. Login with your username and serial key. Default username is admin

5. You will see the Dashboard page

Note: The browser may show a certificate warning. This is normal. Click "Advanced" and "Continue" to proceed.

Step 2 — Set Up Plugins

Go to: Plugins page

Each plugin is a mining engine. You need to upload them to a web host and enter the download URL for each one.

1. Upload the 3 files from MinerPlugins/ folder to any file upload service that gives you a direct download link (e.g. Gofile, Pixeldrain, etc.)

2. Paste the direct download URL for each plugin

3. Click "Test" for each one

4. If the hash matches, the URL is saved automatically

Note: Make sure the link is a direct download, not a landing page.

Step 3 — Configure Mining

Go to: Mining Settings page

You have 3 mining tiers that run independently:

GPU 8GB+ — For GPUs with 8GB or more VRAM

GPU Low — For GPUs with less than 8GB VRAM

CPU — For CPU mining

For each tier:

1. Pick a coin from the dropdown

2. Enter your wallet address

3. Enter pool URL and port

4. Click the toggle to enable

Tip: When you select a coin, if you saved a preset before, it fills in automatically.

Step 4 — Build the Client

Go to: Build Miner page

1. Enter your server address (include https://)

2. Enter the API port (default: 2053)

3. Set a tag name (helps you identify builds)

4. Choose options:

Auto Start — Client starts with Windows automatically

Run In Memory — Client runs miner from memory

5. If Auto Start is on, set install folder and file name

6. Click "Build Miner" and wait for the download

7. The downloaded zip password is: 123

Step 5 — Deploy and Monitor

1. Extract the zip and run the client on target machines

2. Clients will connect to your panel within 3-5 minutes

3. Go to Dashboard to see real-time stats:

— Total / Online / Offline / Mining rig counts

— Hashrate and power consumption

— Country breakdown

4. Go to Miners page to see individual rig details

5. Go to Logs page to see all events and errors

Updating Clients

Go to: Updates page

1. Upload the new client to a download link

2. Enter the URL

3. Optionally filter by version (leave blank for all)

4. Click "Send Update"

5. Clients will download and restart automatically on next heartbeat

Changing Settings

Go to: Settings page

Change dashboard port (default: 2083)
Change API port (default: 2053)
Change admin username
Restart the app after changing ports

Ports

Dashboard 2083 (web panel, HTTPS)

API 2053 (client heartbeat, HTTPS)

Both ports must be open in your firewall. If using Cloudflare proxy, use a CF-supported HTTPS port for API (443, 2053, 2083, 2087, 2096, 8443).

Troubleshooting

Clients not connecting?

Check that API port is open in firewall. Verify the server address in Build Miner matches your VPS IP/domain.

Plugins page shows hash mismatch?

Re-upload the plugin files from MinerPlugins/ folder. The file on your host must be identical.

Dashboard shows 0 miners?

Wait 3-5 minutes after deploying client. Check Logs page for any errors.

Mining not starting?

Make sure at least one tier is enabled in Mining Settings with a valid wallet and pool.

App won't start?

Only one instance can run at a time. Check if it's already running.
