Beginner's guide
New to VHTT OS? This guide explains the core concepts and walks you through setting up your first rig — from connecting it to mining and monitoring.
What is VHTT OS?
VHTT OS has two parts:
- The OS image — a bootable mining operating system you flash to a rig’s USB/SSD. It includes GPU drivers and miners.
- The App — a web/mobile dashboard where you monitor and control every rig from one place: configs, overclocks, schedules and live logs.
Core concepts
Rig
A single mining machine running VHTT OS, with one or more GPUs. Each rig reports its hashrate, temperature, power draw and online/offline status to the dashboard in real time.
GPU
A graphics card inside a rig. VHTT OS detects each GPU and lets you tune and monitor it individually or as part of a group.
Group Config
A reusable mining configuration: which coin to mine, the pool address and port, your wallet, and which miner to run. Create one Group Config and apply it to many rigs so they all mine the same way. In the dashboard each config shows badges for the pool, address/port and coin.
Overclock (OC) profile
The clock, power and fan settings for your GPUs — core/memory offsets, power limit and fan curve. A Group OC applies an OC profile to a whole group of rigs in one click.
Schedule
Automation by time of day — for example lower power during peak electricity hours, or switch coin/mode on a timer.
BIOS
Manage GPU VBIOS for advanced tuning (back up and flash card BIOS).
Workspace, sub-accounts & permissions
A workspace lets a team share rigs. You invite sub-accounts and grant granular permissions (view-only or manage) so staff see only what they need.
A tour of the dashboard
The sidebar / tabs group everything:
| Section | What it’s for |
|---|---|
| Rigs | Live overview of all rigs (hashrate, temps, status); open a rig for details + real-time logs |
| Group Config | Create & apply pool / coin / wallet configurations |
| Overclock | OC profiles applied per group |
| Schedule | Time-based automation |
| BIOS | GPU VBIOS management |
| Workspaces | Teams: sub-accounts & permissions |
| Settings | Security (2FA, sessions, auto-logout), theme, password, history, notifications |
First steps
1. Connect your first rig
In the Rigs list, turn on Allow add rigs — this opens a 12-hour window during which new machines can register to your account. Then flash the OS and boot your rig within that window; it appears under Rigs automatically. See Flashing the OS and First boot & connect.
2. Create a Group Config
Open Group Config → New, then:
- Pick the coin you want to mine.
- Enter the pool address and port.
- Paste your wallet address (and worker name if needed).
- Choose the miner.
- Save, then apply the config to your rig(s).
3. Apply an Overclock profile
Open Overclock → New profile, set core/memory offsets, power limit and fan, then apply it to a group.
4. (Optional) Add a Schedule
In Schedule, set time-based rules — e.g. drop power during expensive electricity hours and restore it later.
5. Monitor your farm
The Rigs dashboard shows live hashrate and temps. Open any rig to see GPU details and stream its real-time logs when you need to debug.
6. Secure your account
In Settings, enable 2FA (Google Authenticator), review active sessions, and set auto-logout. This protects your wallet configs and access.
7. (Teams) Use a Workspace
Create a Workspace, invite sub-accounts, and assign permissions so each person only manages the rigs they should.
