ok, finally got round to trying this, the safenet driver did not work,
but the fentonups one did.
prefer using the megatec driver as it will replace fentonups (and a bunch of other drivers) by the release of nut 2.2.
Note that megatec will be available in 2.0.4 , and is already available in 2.0.4-pre
