Can someone please tell me how to get this working. I use cgminer and cgwatcher. thanks

I think you'll still need to use the special fork they have with the download. If you look in the installation directory you should see the special version of cgminer.

Though I sent a PM as well:

when I installed the application from dualminer.com

First the drivers: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
Then the application: http://support.dualminer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/DualMinerSetup-1.0.0.6.zip

Then I looked at where it installed it on my machine:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Broadeng\DualMiner

In there should be a directory called:
cgminer-win-32bit-2014-01-24_154358

That's the version, that I used to get it to work from command line.

To make it easy, I just modified one of the existing batch files which was already there

cgminer.exe --scrypt --lo -o stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:7777 -u dmpotter.dual -p x -S //./COM22 -S //./COM23 -S //./COM24 -S //./COM25 -S //./COM26 -S //./COM27

Now, keep in mind those COM numbers came from:
Device Manger and under Ports (COM & LPT)
They were listed as USB Serial Port (COMXX)

It's not the standard version of cgminer. I wish I knew how to bring up the normal GUI mode and not just API.

Strange...I thought CGminer used Zadig only Huh  FTDI is used by BFGminer,did they switch over or use both now Huh
