Windows 7 Pro x64, NUT 2.6.5-4 (interim release)
Product: Back-UPS RS 1200 FW:8.g3 .D USB FW:g3
Setting UPS values can be confusing. For example, battery.charge.low and
battery.runtime.low.
Using upsrw, the values will be retained after restarting the OS, but
not if the UPS is turned off/restarted.
In the driver log (below), it looks like the values are obtained from
the UPS, but if I set default.<variable> in ups.conf, those get used
instead, indicating that the UPS isn't providing those values (per the
man page).
I did some tests to see how the UPS responds after using upsrw...
battery.charge.low --> LB reported by NUT, UPS beeper doesn't indicate
LB.
battery.runtime.low --> LB reported by NUT, UPS beeper indicates LB.
The lowbatt option changes the value in upsc, but otherwise doesn't do
anything, I saw it get reset back to 10 after running upscmd.
So I guess it would be best to use ignorelb and override.<variable>?
