My team would like to integrate the ups variables with ROS, http://www.ros.org ? ? ? ? We are using openups connected to a battery that will power up out robot. Openups will provide the vital information regarding the battery. The programming language used in the development of our robot is ROS. In times of low battery, we would like to have NUT sending a message from the single board computer, in the robot, via ethernet to another computer, which is connected to the ethernet. ? ? ? ? Following the user manual provided, I understand that upssched will help to invoke commands at some interval relative to a ups event and it can also mail out notices about things. ? ? ? ? ? ? I am still unclear on how to go about doing this. ? ? Any help is appreciated. ? ? Thank you very much. ? ? ? ? Sincerely, ? ? ? ?
