Hello, I am new to UPS stuff, please be patient with me ;-) Archlinux i686, kernel 3.0-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT. nut 2.6.1 installed from source via Arch's AUR repository. Mother board GA D525TUD with two serial ports, both enabled in BIOS. I got some old Orvaldi 520 PL UPS [1], which is supposed to be supported by the vendor [2] with sw called UPSmart. The statically compiled i386 binary ran but did not detect the UPS. I also tried openupsmart [2] (obsolete now), but UPS was not detected. Since NUT compatibility list shows some success with blazer_ser driver for some other Orvaldi UPS, I gave it a try on both ttyS0 and ttyS1 - but no success (see the log below). I have also read about the cable variants and their configuration in NUT - Orvaldi uses some special serial cable with pins like shown here [4], which is not described on NUT doc pages. If there is any chance it could be supported by NUT, can anybody give some idea how to move on?
