Performance widget in AsicBoost firmware

Firmware documentation

Performance widget: profile, frequency, voltage

This widget tells you what mode the ASIC is running in and whether it has managed to tune itself to that mode.

When no profile is selected

The widget shows the global voltage and frequency values, and the calculated efficiency is zero, because consumption is counted as zero too. The ASIC still works, just without a preset. Next to it you can see the power supply model, APW121215a for example.

When a profile is selected

The profile name appears in the form "calculated power and hashrate target", for example 3750 W and 236 TH/s. If the ASIC has already tuned itself on this profile, the tuned mark lights up next to it.

What you seeWhat it means
Profile selected, tuned litNormal state, the ASIC is tuned
Profile selected, tuned not litTuning never ran or was reset. Hashrate will be below potential
No profile selectedRunning on global values, consumption and efficiency are shown as zero

How to pick a profile and what to do next is covered in the performance section. The same page explains why global frequency and voltage are stored inside the profile and not separately from it.

If a profile is set and the tuned mark still has not appeared on the second day, check whether tuning is being interrupted by reboots, and look into the autotuning logs. Usually unstable power or overheating is to blame.

The tuned mark matters more than the profile name A 3750 W profile without tuning is only a claim. Real numbers appear after autotuning has sorted the chips onto their own frequencies, and that takes 3 to 5 hours of work.
