LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system; it includes features designed for the production of technical and scientific documentation. LaTeX is the de facto standard for the communication and publication of scientific documents. LaTeX is available as free software. You don't have to pay for using LaTeX, i.e., there are no licence fees, etc. There are three easy steps for installing LaTeX on Windows: Install GhostView - for creating and viewing postscript (.ps) files. Install MikTex - this is the standard LaTeX package for Windows. Install a Text Editor - to type up your own LaTeX files or edit other people's files.

There's no reason to complicate things with Cygwin. Go download and install a TeX distribution for Windows - I personally use TeX Live, but various other distributions are available, such as MikTeX or W32TeX.
If you want to use UTF-8 for your bibliography, and you're using BibTeX, I recommend using bibtexu instead of the regular bibtex (since bibtex doesn't actually support UTF-8). There's a download on the W32TeX site.

The following command worked for me, under cygwin. I installed pandoc 1.13.2 and MiKTeX 2.9.5105 64-bit. Then I ran:
Oct 22, 2014 VISA Configure Serial Port is a built-in LabVIEW subVI. (It is polymorphic with (Instr) and (Serial Instr) versions that are virtually identical. The baud rate is connected to the VI connector panel at the 2nd terminal on the upper left. If it is missing in your VI, then someone must have corrupted the VI and saved it back in the LabVIEW VISA. 3 Learn LabVIEW 4 Begin Your Application Connecting Instruments via Serial. Most computers include a serial port (typically RS232). Those that do not can typically be augmented with a serial interface via PCI slots, USB port adapters, and so on. The only hardware Set Up required is connecting the serial cable to the serial port on the PC. Owning Palette: Serial VIs and Functions Requires: Base Development System Initializes the serial port specified by VISA resource name to the specified settings. Wire data to the VISA resource name input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance. Use the pull-down menu to select an instance of this VI. Labview serial port example.
The key here is that I gave the full path for MiKText's pdflatex.exe in the --latex-engine key, in quotes, using the windows path (as the pandoc I installed is the windows pandoc, it requires windows-style paths to find resources).
I used -f markdown_github because of the file format of my-file.md
I used -t latext but that's optional AFAIK.
