Hello! It looks like bcmxcp driver doesn't fit my device: UPS Model ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?PW9125 UPS Firmware Version ? ?FP: 1.10 INV: 1.10 VA Rating ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?3000 VA Web/SNMP card is present. Minicom connection to /dev/ttyS0 gives nice banner and control menu, but they prevent nut driver from working correctly (I guess). UPS should be switched into "Pass-Through" mode before BCM/XCP commands became actual. How to deal with such UPS? Should I modify default bcmxcp driver or somehow turn device into supported mode?
