The Automated Miner requires two things to run: Energy and Mining Pipes.

Picture not available

You have to put pipes in the upper slot. It places one pipe each level and while doing this, it looks for ores with the integrated ODE Device.

When found some ores, it will start to dig to them and then mine them. All harvested ores will then be transported through the Mining Pipe and

ejected on the Surface, next to the Miner.

The miner mines all ores in an 5x5 blocks area around him.

The 5x5 blocks area

Put some Mining Pipes in the upper slot and an energy source (of course we recommend you our T500-Rechargeable Energy Storation Unit here, as well) in the lower one.

Now the Miner will start it's operation, digging and planting Mining Pipes below him, as well as using the integrated ODE Device to scan for nearby ores.

Once detected, the Miner will dig to the detected ore and harvest it. But it can't mine impenetrable objects (f.e. Obsidian).

Then it will stop mining and the "Operation-Bar will staying full without any harvesting.

Once you've stripped the entire area, you can just put any sort of block into the upper slot.

The Miner will then start WITHDRAWING all laid Mining Pipes and replace them with the filling material (of the upper slot).

This way, you will never "consume" Mining Pipes. If the Miner stops operating in this mod, it has withdrawn all pipes and can be recollected for placing it on a new location.
