Analyze it. Find out, how the protocol works. Are commands used or
registers? At which time which command is used? E.g. if a command is
used multiple times during the actual scan and returns lots of data it's
most probably the "read_scan_data" command (or however you want to
name it). A command that is used only once immediately beforet he scan
may be the "start_scan" command.

Putting the usb snoopy logs somewhere on a web site might also help.
Maybe someone recognizes a pattern or has seen that protocol before?

Bye,
