Command line
Are there any command line parameters? I would like to use it from Directory Opus and pass in the folder I would like to monitor

Directory Monitor does have a few command line parameters (something worth documenting so we’ll get on that).
The command-line switch you are looking for would be “/shell” which is what the context menu shortcut on any directory right-click → Add to Directory Monitor uses.
To mimic this you can call: “C:\Program Files\DevEnterprise.NET\Directory Monitor 2\DirectoryMonitor.exe” /shell “C:\AnyFullPath”
to add a directory.
Is this what you are looking for?

You cannot control things from the command-line with the user interface executable. The user interface has the following command-line parameters that only affect the startup:
/shared - Start in shared-user mode.
/admin - Starts forcing elevated permissions (UAC).
/wait - Delays the startup.
/shell {directory} - Adds the specific directory to the configuration (used by the right-click shell context menu item).The console application (C:\Program Files\DevEnterprise.NET\Directory Monitor 2\DirectoryMonitorConsole.exe) has a number of parameters to control configuration. There are too many to list in the comments so to view these just execute the following from a command prompt:
> "C:\Program Files\DevEnterprise.NET\Directory Monitor 2\DirectoryMonitorConsole.exe" /help
The console application functionality is available to users with PRO unlock keys.

And what are the other command line parameters?
Are there any switches for disable/resume of an directory or a switch for clearing the logs?Best regards
