Hmm. Googling around, I see that it might also be the Sigmatel
Stir4200 (USB ID 066F:4210).
That actually has better documentation, and shows exactly the framing
for the normal MIR format (which it would be for the normal 9600
baud). I suspect the MCS7780 needs that same format, it's just not
documented as well.
The packet wrapping looks like this:
0x55 0xaa 2-byte LE length, 0xC0*n .. escaped data .. 2-byte LE CRC 0xc1
and from what I can tell, the Stir4200 also resets to sane default
values (9600 baud SIR).
But you may have to do some USB control transfers to set the data
direction. It *looks* like the MCS7780 is simpler and defaults to just
"automatic data direction" (which presumably just means "send if there
is TX data, receive otherwise").
