There should be 2 ways, also I don't know the internals
of fentonups nor powercom (ie do both use the megatec
protocol?):

1) extending powercom: I've cc'ed Simon as he should have
more to tell about this (Simon, please subscribe to the
new mailing lists)

2) extending fentonups, with your above ID string, following
the examples in fentonups.h (search for "devices which don't
implement...") and the tech specs of your unit.
