BTC Tools – ASIC Miner Management Software

BTC Tool scans your local network, finds every connected ASIC miner and lets you configure pools, restart units and track hashrate across the whole fleet without opening a single miner’s web panel. Windows and Linux.

Overview

What BTC Tools Does

Managing each ASIC miner separately is tedious, and once you have ten or more it becomes genuinely hard. Every pool change, every worker rename, every reboot means the same loop: find the miner’s IP again, open its web panel, log in, repeat. BTC Tools removes that repetitive work by talking to all of your miners on the network at once.

The software runs locally on your Windows or Linux machine, connected to the same network as your ASIC miners. It scans the IP ranges you define, identifies responding miners and collects their current state in a single sortable table — hashrate, board temperature, fan speed, pool address, worker name and firmware version. From there, any setting you would apply to one miner can be applied to a whole selected group at once.

That makes BTC Tools equally useful in both cases. A home setup with one or two miners, or a full farm with hundreds of machines across separate subnets – either way, migrating to a different pool takes minutes instead of an entire shift.

Features

Key Features

Local Network Scanner

Define one or several IP ranges and BTC Tools finds the ASIC miners sitting inside them. Ranges can be given your own names – “Group 1”, “Room 2” – and switched on separately, so you don’t have to scan the whole farm every time. And if a miner’s address changed after a router reboot, there is no need to dig into router settings: run a scan and the device turns up again.

Real-Time Fleet Monitoring

Detected miners report hashrate, the temperature of every board, fan speed, uptime and pool status. Values update as the scan runs, so a miner with a dropped hashrate or a rising temperature is visible during an ordinary check – not in the payout report at the end of the month.

Batch Pool Configuration

Select the miners you need and write the pool address, worker name and password to all of them at once, in a single action. However many miners you have, switching to a different pool or changing a password takes as long as it would for a single one.

Batch Restart

Restart selected miners without opening their interfaces one by one. Useful after a mass settings change, during scheduled maintenance, or when recovering devices that stopped sending hashrate to the pool.

Firmware Updates

Update firmware across a group of compatible miners at once. When every device runs the same version, the farm behaves predictably. When versions differ, miners start behaving differently and it becomes hard to work out what the problem is.

Power and Frequency Profiles

Switch power modes or set the frequency for a whole group at once – for the models that support it. That way you cut consumption when electricity gets more expensive, or reduce heat in hot weather, without reconfiguring every device by hand.

Sorting and Anomaly Flags

Click any column and whatever falls outside the norm rises to the top: the hottest boards, or the lowest hashrate. Rows that cross the limits you set are highlighted automatically, so a problem is visible straight away instead of hiding in a long list.

Static IP Assignment

Assign permanent IP addresses to the miners you found so they stop changing after a router reboot. Every miner then keeps its place in the list, and group settings reach exactly the miners you addressed them to.

Compatibility

BTC Tools for Antminer

BTC Tools is most often used with Bitmain Antminer, and this is where it helps the most: if you have a dozen identical miners, the settings reach all of them in one action.

Finding miners, monitoring, pool setup and restart work on every supported Antminer model. Firmware, power and frequency depend on the model itself and its firmware version – on some miners these are available, on others they are not.

Workflow

How to Use BTC Tools

01

Set your IP range

On first launch BTC Tools fills in the network of your computer. If your miners are connected to a different one – type in the range you need. You can add several IP ranges and name each one yourself: “Group 1”, “Garage”.

02

Run the scan

Start the scan and the table fills with every miner it finds. If some of them use a non-standard password, enter it in the settings first – otherwise they show up as addresses with no data.

03

Sort and find the problems

Click a column header to re-sort the list. Sorting by temperature or hashrate puts the problem miners straight at the top – faster than reading through two hundred rows.

04

Apply settings to a group

Select the miners you need and, in one action, change their pool, worker names or power profile, restart them or update the firmware. Just try it on two or three first, and only then apply it to the whole farm.

Diagnostics

Hashrate and Temperature Monitoring

A miner that is running is not necessarily a miner that is earning. A board overheats and throttles down, a fan fails, a hashboard drops out: the electricity bill stays the same while the output falls several times over. From the outside you would never notice – the miner hums, the lights are on, everything looks fine.

BTC Tools shows board temperature and fan speed next to hashrate. Together these numbers explain the cause. If a miner has climbed to 89 °C and puts out a third of what it should, it is overheating. If it stays cool with the same drop, the problem is the board or the pool settings. Both faults look identical from the outside, but they are fixed differently, and the table tells you where to look before you walk over to the miner.

You set the limits yourself – to match your own hardware and how hot the room gets.

Requirements

System Requirements

Operating system Windows 7 or later, or a 64-bit Linux distribution
Network The computer must be on the same local network as the miners
Computer No special requirements – any modern PC or laptop will do
Display 1366×768 or higher – the table is wide, so Full HD is more comfortable on large farms
Permissions Access to the local network; the firewall must allow the scan
