The problem is that these devices probably use the same one from Phoenixtec. Supporting this would require creating a meta-driver that not only detects the USB-to-serial converter, but that also probes which serial protocol is used. There really is nothing we can do about vendors that are too cheap to really embed USB support in their microcontrollers but instead use an off-the-shelf USB-to-serial converter. Maybe we should drop auto-detecting these, since there is no way to be absolutely sure what is really connected, unless they have their own VID:PID combination.
