[Ethereum] How to set payout threshold and Rigname in ethminer

etherethminerminingmining-poolswallets

I'm new to ethminer. I was just following the simple guides in ethermine.org. It says to start ethminer, we have to create a bat with the following contents, which I did:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 200 -G -S eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -FS us1.ethermine.org:4444 -O <Your_Ethereum_Address>.<RigName>

Now a few questions:

1- How to set the payout threshold? So whenever the mined amount reached that, it automatically sends it to my wallet address?

2- What is that Rigname?

3- For the address, that is my wallet address, right? e.g. my Binance ETH deposit address.

Best Answer

1- How to set the payout threshold? So whenever the mined amount reached that, it automatically sends it to my wallet address? You would have to set this up in your pool, if you go to ethermine help there will be some information there, pools usually make this very hard to find!

2- What is that Rigname? Rigname can be anything you want to identify your rig

3- For the address, that is my wallet address, right? e.g. my Binance ETH deposit address. yes this is your wallet address, although i would use myetherwallet and download a paper wallet and use that instead of an online exchange wallet. hope this helps
