Differentiating between people like you, who can take blame for misconfiguring device and 99% of other consumers is not viable for most companies. Also, if you bought our device and wanted to do that, I would probably make a firmware version for you that connects to your endpoint and give you some docs. But:

- Just talking and coordinating that possibility for one user would cost my company more than the final price of device, when considering time spent on this.

- You would have to spend a lot of time to implement a lot of functionality to glue our protocol to your desired endpoint.
