[Nut-upsuser] Contact-closure UPS

Hi Charles,

I am done with few things:
I made the cable - looks good, because I see some activities.
I upgraded NUT to 2.7.3.
but I have no success to start driver(this are the outputs)
nut.cfg 
MODE = netserver

ups.conf
[infosec]
        driver = nutdrv_qx (or blazer_ser)
        port = /dev/ttyS1
        desc = "XP Pro 2500 RM"

output(nutdrv_qx cmd upsdrvctl -DDD start)

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.3
   0.000000
If you're not a NUT core developer, chances are that you're told to
enable debugging
to see why a driver isn't working for you. We're sorry for the
confusion, but this is
the 'upsdrvctl' wrapper, not the driver you're interested in.

Below you'll find one or more lines starting with 'exec:' followed
by an absolute
path to the driver binary and some command line option. This is what the driver
starts and you need to copy and paste that line and append the debug flags to
that
line (less the 'exec:' prefix).

If I am reading the code correctly, it does not need anything other than
Tx/Rx/Ground (ser_open() sets CLOCAL, which ignores modem control lines). So
that cable should work.

(cable 5.4.1)?
The loopback connections would be for the modem control lines (hardware
handshaking, which your UPS probably does not do). Other than that, I think the
DB-9 pinout is the same.

nutdrv_qx would be best, but blazer_ser is the next newest driver.

The above message is saying that the debug flags need to be added to the driver
command line, not to the upsdrvctl command:

The above message is saying that the debug flags need to be added to the driver
command line, not to the upsdrvctl command:
