The cp210x driver can't handle CP2110 , because its a HID device. cp210x is designed for a different USB device interface, found on CP210x devices. It's strange that the CP2110 ID 10c4 ea80 is listed inside cp210x. A good place to start would be to ask your multimeter manufacturer for Linux s/w. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
