Yes, it could be.

I doubt it; the device announces itself as a USB HID device (see
http://www.usb.org/developers/hidpage/) and produces an extensive
Usage tree (here is the cleaned-up version):

It does not look like a serial-over-usb device at all. More likely,
there is some low level problem in retrieving the data, for example,
the device expects a buffer of a specified predetermined size, or
needs some initialization before it will work. 

The output of running the driver with -DDD might be useful; keep the
driver running for say 2 minutes. This should give more detailed
debugging output of interrupt reports received if any.

No, probably it wouldn't be useful for getting the USB to work. It
could be useful in its own right though, if you'd like to get the
serial to work with NUT.
