You should use the Vendor and product id for the cp2102, same as for the U1 and for the block erupter.
Changing the number of asics didn't help with bfgminer, I'm not sure it's needed in cgminer since you are compiling for S1
I already have all the DLLs from other cgminer builds.
I'm now considering trying to find what's happening in this pic microchip if there is something else than a simple uart > usb bridge to communicate with the chips.
I'm confident it can be done with a simple CP2102 and a few tricks in the software (cgminer/bfgminer), but since bitmaintech didn't make it open, we need to try and guess.

I am still trying to catch up on this thread, so bear with me if this has been overcome.
I managed to build a windows cgminer of the latest 4.6 release by simply uncommenting out the #ifdef LINUX bit from just one file, i.e driver-bitmain.c. I fired it up and it seems to run, but obviously have not plugged it into an S1 blade as yet. I also need to change / add the USB chip for my USB to TTL dongle. J4bberwock (or anyone), if you'd like the binary, I can provide it, though the build is simple (via MinGW). heres a screenshot:
I guess it won't work, but if you can send me a link to download it, I'll try this afternoon
1. For your build, what are your USB chip settings (should I use the ones in the thread)?
2. I also read Taugeran's post about changing the number of ASICs, do you want me to change that as well, or should I make 2 binaries with either setting?
3. Finally, should I include all the dlls it requires to run in the zip or do you have these already?
EDIT: Scratch no. 2 - this applied to the U2 driver, I am compiling with ---enable-ants1

Anybody could compile for windows with --enable-ants1 ?
It's already supported with an autotune function.

Looks like it won't compile at all. But i'll try.It's already supported with an autotune function.
https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer
I've connected an old laptop that I used to compile some time ago, I'll try it too.
I've looked at the driver code. It doesn't designed to run on windows. As i can understand. Hope i'm wrong. Still installing debian on vm. so slow
Btw you must change vid and pid in usbutils.c near #ifdef USE_ANT_S1 to match your usb bridge.This is more or less correct. If you take a look at driver-bitmain.c and .h files you will see
Code:
#ifdef LINUX
I may as well throw in, I'm working on 2 protos similar to what jabberwock has done, but both my USB dongle design and a small USB hub design use the PIC uC that the original controller uses. going this route has allowed me the ability of setting up shop for helping Luke-JR with S1/S3 support in a less brickable environment. See this to see what I mean. All I did was try and determine a couple of OS variables and dependency structures and I bricked a controller( temporarily)

Time for some sleep here.
both cgminer and bfgminer are really close to work, but it will have to wait.
If Bitmaintech would have released the code...
Using the same pic and their firmware would be easier, but I don't like to depend on them.

I know, it's a crutch. But to get walking sometimes that's what you need til you feel comfortable

Before adding the 32 FPGA thing, I was getting 8 sub-units all hashing @0.650 for the same total value.
Hmm. Ls sigh. I thought it would work. Guess not. Well back to my drawing boar... Altium VM to do some board analysis
Before adding the 32 FPGA thing, I was getting 8 sub-units all hashing @0.650 for the same total value.
The best hashrate I've got so far poolside was 30-35Gh with cgminer and tons of HW errors. I assume it was using the 32 chips, they were all hot
Bfgminer don't throw a single error but it seems to only uses 8 chips.
None of the chips are actually hot, they are all more or less warm.

Looks like the only AMU over 10 minutes getting accepted shares is 0aa.
But what is the hashrate after 10 minutes?

no luck with the mod in bfgminer.
"no device found"
I'm removing the changes I did in the 70-bfgminer.rules.in and recompiing, just i case it coud be the reason it's not working."no device found"
EDIT:
Still no luck.
I also need to find where is stored the default speed to set it higher and check if all the chips are getting hot or not.
Changing it with bfgminer doesn't seems to have any effect.
EDIT2:
looks like I had a misconnected cable.
Even untouched github compile wasn't working until I unplugged and plugged back the usb/uart converter.
Back to test the Taugeran mod.
here is the result
[2014-09-14 15:22:03] Started bfgminer 4.8.0-8-gbaf6fe5Segmentation fault (core dumped)
EDIT3, removing the speed setting from the commandline made it start and give crazy numbers

Nice. Now i have one dead blade and one dead raspberry pi 
Don't know how it could happen.
Don't know how it could happen.define dead. wont start on or you see charring/magic smoke somewhere?
Now i have 1.5Th/s
Want free blade?
I'm always interested in cheap dead miners
