Nut upsdev - Aug 2011 - Request for new UPS support : Tecnoware ECO LCD 650VA

Hello!
I'm not a very happy owner of "Designed in Italy and manufactured in
China"
Tecnoware ECO LCD 650 UPS.
Plan was to use it with FreeNAS 8 on HP Microserver... But this plan gone
bad.
I want to ask you to look at another "Megatec USB" protocol
implementation.
This UPS controlled by UPSilon 2000 program (Windows OS). Protocol type
Mega(USB).
Bad things:
- Program does not show UPS Manufacturer, UPS Model, UPS Version and
Temperature.
- vendorid = 0001, productid = 0000
- FreeNAS 8.0.1 beta 4 with NUT 2.4 unable to talk with this UPS
- FreeBSD 8.2 with compiled NUT 2.6.1 unable to talk with this UPS,
and I put in ups.conf file all possible variants of subdriver
[ecob]
driver = blazer_usb
vendorid = 0001
productid = 0000
subdriver = phoenix/krauler/cypress/ippon

I can provide USB trace log in HTML format if you interested (from USBTrace
by SysNucleus).

Please help! F1!

Hi,
I submitted a while ago a patch adding support for ldlc UPS which looks
quite similar to yours.
If I understood correctly it should be integrated in next major release.

Hello all again. After some digging I collected all supported command
logs (command/response) from UPSilon-2000 to UPS with USB sniffer.
Since i'm not a profi in USB development and C programming, I can be
very vrong, but I think what here is new protocol-hack version.
All Megatec commands passed to UPS as hex code in Index field of
URB_FUNCTION_GET_DESCRIPTOR_FROM_DEVICE
For T<n> command as additional field used TransferBufferLength, which
contans time duration value.
I'm not sure, how TransferBufferLength used in all others commands,
but it is definitely strange (large) for UPS&OS Shutdown command.
May be it is used as constant/variable for all commands (complitely
lost here...)
I was incorrect about UPS name. Right name is: Tecnoware ERA LCD .65
(650VA model in my case)
Here is link to archive with logs for CT, F, I, Q, Q1, T<n>, T, TL
commands:

I hope what NUT developers can write a driver for this ***** device.
p.s. It was quite interesting quest. :)
Vladimir.
