Sites

A Site is the top level of the hierarchy. It represents a physical or logical entity: a mining farm, data center, separate building, or rack. All other entities — agents, devices, metrics — are bound to a specific site.

What's stored at the site level:

• Name and geographic location
• Electricity rate — used for calculating net income
• Maximum capacity — for displaying site load
• Group operations settings (batch command sending)

Typical scenario: one company manages multiple farms in different cities — each farm is a separate site in Pulse.

Agents

An Agent is a local application installed on a computer or server on the same network as the miners. The agent is the link between on-site devices and the HashCore cloud.

What the agent does:

• Scans the local network using specified IP ranges
• Discovers ASIC devices and collects metrics from them
• Transmits data to the HashCore cloud in real time
• Executes user commands (reboot, pool switching, firmware installation, etc.)

Agent operation modes:

• Full Control — metrics collection and command execution (default)
• Monitoring Only — metrics collection only, no command execution

Multiple agents can be connected to a single site — for example, if devices are in different subnets.

Scan Tasks

A Scan Task defines what the agent scans: which IP ranges to check and how to authenticate on devices. Each agent can have multiple scan tasks.

What's configured in a Scan Task:

• Network ranges — list of IP ranges to scan. Import from TXT, CSV, JSON and range aggregation are supported
• Unlock Configs — credentials for devices with non-standard passwords (HashCore, Bitmain)
• Status — a task can be enabled or disabled without deletion

Typical scenario: one task scans subnet 192.168.1.0/24, another — 10.0.0.0/24. Each task can have its own authentication settings.

Workers

Workers are ASIC miners discovered by the agent during scanning. Devices are not added manually — they appear automatically once the agent finds them on the network.

What's available at the device level:

• Real-time metrics: hashrate, power consumption, temperature, fan RPM
• Connection status (Connectivity) and miner status (Miner Status)
• Detailed information: network parameters, serial numbers, board status, pools
• Event Log — chronological timeline of all operations and changes
• Operations: reboot, pool switching, firmware installation, diagnostics, etc.
