FPGA/ASIC Port Scanner Mining Utility v. 0.39 by infamousDutch
This software is for miners mining on Windows that would like to use CGMiner or BFGMiner and enable it to scan for idle devices.
I know eventually they will add this functionality to already great software packages for Windows users, but if you do not want to wait until then (like me), use this.
This code is provided entirely free of charge by the programmer in his spare
time so donations would be greatly appreciated. Please consider donating to the

Scans for idle devices(currently only BFL's Bitforce, but I will add more upon request) every 2 minutes and fires up a miner to start mining.
Currently supports cgminer and bfgminers.
Takes one parameter, the miner and mining parameters you wish to start up when a port is found to be open.
Example: fpgaScanner cgminer -c cgminer.conf --disable-gpu
Just copy fpgascanner.exe to the same folder as cgminer or bfgminer and start it with your miners configuration.
