31 = OK return code
5370656374726F6C696E6F20386D6D000000 = Device Name Type = "Spectrolino 8mm"
7AC3 = Serial Number
8500 = Software Release
D107 = Year of production
0100 = Month of production
0C00 = Day of production
0000 = Hour of production
0000 = Minute of production
02 = Technology is Spectrolino
7C01 = First spectral wavelength
2400 = Number of spectral wavelengths
0A00 = Distance between spectral wavelengths

so the problem most likely is that the driver is expecting
a Device Name Type of "Spectrolino" and instead is finding
"Spectrolino 8mm". Simple enough to fix in the next release.

If you're compiling from source change line 284 of spectro/ss.c
from:
        || strcmp(devn, "Spectrolino") != 0)
to
        || strncmp(devn, "Spectrolino",11) != 0)

and see how it goes.

thanks for the feedback.
