Hi,

I am trying to mine litecoin with a USB erupter using cgminer 3.1.1 and the following command :

cgminer-nogpu.exe --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 -o stratum+tcp://ltc.ghash.io:3333 -u user -p x -S COM5

But I am getting the following

Code:

I have installed the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART bridge driver provided with my erupter and when plugged in, it appears properly in the control Panel in the Ports section (Silicon Labes CP210x USB to UART Bridge (COM5))

Any idea why cgminer does not detect it and fails to connect to it when forced to do so with the -S COM5 parameters ?

Thanks !
