The client requires Chia software to be installed and node/wallet fully synced.

Extract the executable and the settings.ini to a location of your choice.
Edit the settings.ini file to reflect your setup and chia addresses.
Make sure your payment address is not part of your node to prevent pool payments from getting sent back to the pool.
The two addresses in chia config.yaml need to be the same and match the 'First Wallet Address' reported by the chia executable with command (chia keys show).
You must already have a full node running and synced.
Run the executable from a command prompt / terminal. It will perform a bunch of checks to confirm your chia installation, addresses, and plots.
If anything does not check out, the program will exit with a message explaining the problem.
Note: Chia ver 1.2.10 introduces keyring passphrase which can stall client execution if remember is not ticked when set up. Run 'chia passphrase remove' to fix.
If all the checks passed, it will start monitoring the current block height and sending data to the pool.
You are now pool mining chia!
The client will perform checks for new plots and found blocks to include on the pool.
If a user finds a block the XCH will be sent from the user node to the pool with information about the block height that was found.
Any user that is active on the pool at the time the block was found will be credited with their portion of the funds.
Funds are sent to the users payment address anytime the XCH value is higher then 0 XCH and that user has proven to be contributing fairly by having sucessfully submitted a block to the pool.
Do not send funds to addresses associated with your node while pool mining. These funds will end up getting sent to the pool.
If you have XCH already on your node when running the client those funds are safe from being sent to the pool.
The client assumes node received funds are the result of new block payouts and sends the funds to the pool to be distributed.
If you have any issues please reach out so we can get them figured out.
