Well, the manpage says: "If vendor- and product-id has not been speci-
fied, the backend tries to detect this by its own. If device ist set
to auto then the next matching device is used." 
Concerning the DEBUG variables: see man sane and man sane-usb. But you
are right, that could be added to sane-plustek also.
