Its a vendor specific device, so it probably won't have a driver matched against it (and doesn't look like it has), so its free for you application to find its userclient interfaces and start talking to it.

The actual mechanics of finding a userclient interface are a bit involved, so I usually just grab one of the examples and start using that. I like the Deva Example (because I wrote it).
