Keeping track of the state of your miner is important. The Bobcat Miner includes a handy web interface that you can use to check up on your miner. You can also use my bobcatpy Python library to make some cool scripts too. But what if you want a more automated way of monitoring your miner?
If you’re running Home Assistant, you’re in luck. I’ve written and released a custom component for the Bobcat miner.
Combine this with some clever automations and you can get some useful things going. I’ve defined automations that notify me when the miner sync gap is above 100 for example or if the miner temperature becomes critically high.
The custom component is available here. Installation instructions are available in the README and it will also be included in HACS shortly.
Enjoy
