Looking for some help with this UPS. ?I am running Debian Jessie 8.1 (32 bit).
?I live inCosta Rica so UPS purchase options, in my price range, are fairly
slim. ?I purchased thereferenced UPS, which works with WinPower software, but am
really hesitant to installWinPower as I don't know how it might affect
things and don't want to break the system.
When I was still running Wheezy, I installed NUT and went through the set up
process,?selecting the usbhid-ups driver. When I executed ? upsdrvctl start ?I
got a message that the?device was not found, so I changed the driver to
blazer_usb and got a message that the?device was usbhid . ?I also had installed
WinPower on my Wheezy platform and that softwareseemed to work. ?However, there
were some issues and my desktop (LXDE) would?occasionally crash, so I
uninstalled Winpower. Several things were left behind, which is?what makes me
uneasy about installing it again.
Since upgrading to Jessie I have not re-installed NUT so I unfortunately do not
have?available the exact messages that I received when I executed ?upsdrvctl
start .
I am not a programmer, so I would be totally lost trying to write a driver for
this UPS.
Has anybody had experience with the referenced UPS and might be able to help
with?this. ?If requested, I can install NUT and try to get the info needed. ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
