Nut upsuser - Mar 2006 - APC Back-UPS XS 1200

Greetings,

I'm new to the list, and didn't find an archive, so please bear with me:

I have a new APC Back-UPS XS 1200 model BX1200.  

The USB cable attaches with an RJ-45 on the UPS side.  

I'm using the hidups driver, and the default log format gives me lines like 
this:

20060317 041353 100 NA 0 [OL] NA NA
20060317 041454 100 NA 0 [OL] NA NA

Can I do better than that with (a future?) newhidups or some other driver?

I'm on SuSE 10.0 (soon going on 10.1) with the nut-2.0.2-3 rpm installed. 

Thanks,

Ulf

The hidups driver will be replaced at some point with newhidups, so if
you can try again with newhidups, that would be great.

Also, upslog outputs a somewhat abbreviated list of variables - you
will see much more information if you use upsc.
