The driver will not work with UNI-T UT612 since its using Serial over HID protocol, prolific cp2110 if I remember correctly. The problem with this ES51919 driver and many other drivers is that serial protocol handling rs232 and actual chip protocol are baked together. What if the same chip is used over a telnet session or connected over a CAN bus etc ...
I had the UNI-T UT612 and was working on support for it but I lost the device when moving from Washington to Nevada. In my opinion the right way to support these generic chips is to separate the bearer protocol from the chip protocol so its easier to reuse with different bearers. In the UNI-T UT612 case another alternative would have been to update the libserialport to abstract the HID serial to look like just another serial port.
