Requirements[edit]
To run the Automated Miner requires 4 things:
Energy: From a cable or portable sources
Pipe: Mining Pipe is consumed to dig down. Returned once the miner retracts
Drill bit: Mining Drill or Diamond Drill
Scanner: OD Scanner or OV Scanner
Operation[edit]
To use the miner insert a Drill Bit into the top-left, a Scanner in the top-right and your Mining Pipes into the top-middle.
The miner will consume the pipes to dig down extracting ore it finds in its scan range(See Scanning Rage section).
Any ore found will be brought up and ejected onto the surface next to the miner. Placing a chest next to the miner will result in the ore being stored in it instead.
Once the miner has finished you can retract the pipes by removing the Drill bit. Also you may place blocks (Dirt etc.) in the pipe slot to fill in the shaft when it retracts.
Scanning range[edit]
A miner with an OD Scanner mines all ore in a 5x5 block area around it.
However a miner with an OV Scanner mines all ore in a massive 9x9 block area!

Liquids[edit]
If the miner hits water or lava while tunneling it will stop unless they are cleared.
Alternatively if you place a pump next to the miner (filled with empty cells) it will extract the liquids for you, storing the lava in the cells for power generation!
Recipe[edit]
Energy Costs[edit]
Power Costs for drilling down 1 pipe:
Mining Drill: ~450-470 EU
Diamond Drill: ~880-900 EU
OD Scanner: ~65-75 EU
OV Scanner: ~165-190 EU
So the cost to drill down 1 level with a Mining Drill + OD Scanner is ~460+~70 = 530
And the cost to drill down 1 level with a Diamond Drill + OD Scanner is ~990+~70 = 960
Diamond Drills are far more expensive but far faster.
Energy[edit]

Other Notes[edit]
Miners can not mine through items like torches, redstone wiring etc.
