[Nut-upsuser] SOS : Help needed for UPS Centralion Blazer 2000VA USB
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello, I leave a mail here because I can't find any solution in order to get the nut working with this UPS despite I search everywhere on the net. I've bought this UPS recently after that an MGE-UPS Ellipse 1200 USB burn. I've those information about the UPS : Reseller link : http://www.alpha-power-technologie.com/images/GPi-usb.pdf In his catalogue, the product is called Global Power GPi-2000BZ This UPS has monitoring software called Winpower 2.0(http://www.ups-software-download.com/) which is developed by Centralion. My system is a Debian Sarge 3.1 with a 2.4.32 kernel and built-in HID USB support. (this kernel was working perfectly well with the MGE-UPS HID UPS Ellipse 1200 and nut driver newhidups) I've tried to set up winpower under debian but get an RMI server failure at boot. I also see that the setup script wasn't set correctly for Debian, even after fixed PATH variables and right rc.d scripts... So I went back on nut and tried to solve this problem. On the Centralion Web site I found an UPS that seems to be the same as mine (blazer 2000VA Spec. http://www.centralion.com/html/product/back-Product-ups-blazer1000-spec.htm and brochure http://www.centralion.com/dm-download/Blazer1-2K/Blazer1K-2K.zip) This UPS use megatec protocol over USB I think. Below are details catch from the console : When I plug the UPS on the USB port I get : # lsusb Bus 003 Device 005: ID 0665:5161 If I do cat /dev/usb/hiddev0 the system seems to be reading on the device but no characters appears on the console... If I unplug the UPS the cat /dev/usb/hiddev0 command stop working so I think the system see the UPS on this device. The usbview show me this on the device : USB to Serial Manufacturer: Cypress Semiconductor Speed: 1,5 Mb/s (low) USB Version: 1.10 Device Class: 00(ifc ) Device Subclass: 00 Device Protocol: 00 Maximum Default Endpoint Size: 8 Number of Configurations: 1 Vendor Id: 0665 Product Id: 5161 Revision Number:0.02 Config Number: 1 Number of Interfaces: 1 Attributes: 80 MaxPower Needed: 100mA Interface Number: 0 Name: hid Alternate Number: 0 Class: 03(HID ) Sub Class: 0 Protocol: 0 Number of Endpoints: 1 Endpoint Adderss: 81 Direction: in Attribute: 3 Type: Int. Max Packet Size: 8 Interval: 32ms If someone could help me, it'll be really nice, as I've tried newhidups - fentoups - energized drivers without success. I think my problem come from the USB to serial chipset from Cypress which is not included into newhidups but it's out of what I can manage.

[Nut-upsuser] SOS : Help needed for UPS Centralion Blazer 2000VA USB
That hardware doesn't have a serial port right? I think that UPS could be supported if only one could configure a "ttyUSB" with that serial-usb converter. I (temporarily) have a model with an USB port here, and I would like to see if I could get it to work with "megatec"/"powermust" without resorting to some HID/USB magic... The protocol used seems to be the same, so the only thing needed is to configure a emulated serial port. Anyone has any ideas?
