Hi! I don't know how I missed it before, but "bestups" seems to implement mostly the same protocol as megatec. Is anybody out there using this driver willing to try "megatec" to see if it works? AFAIK, the only difference seems to be the command that gets the UPS identification data ("I" on "megatec", "ID"...

hi all, really simple fix for the bestups driver: In function: upsdrv_makevartable() you need to add the line addvar(VAR_VALUE, "battvoltmult", "Battery voltage multiplier"); There are a number of simple improvements I could make to this driver, but I'm assuming that since the above bug has been around since nut...

Hi Daniele, I finally got a Best Power Patriot Pro II fixed up with a new battery and cable, and tried it with nutdrv_qx (since it uses a variant of the Q1 protocol). It auto-detected the use of Q1. It looks like things mostly work: bestups: battery.charge: 100.0 battery.voltage: 13.9 battery.voltage.nominal: 12 device.mfr: Best Power device.model: Patriot Pro II 400 device.type: ups driver.name: bestups driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyUSB0 driver.version: 2.6.4 driver.version.internal: 1.06 input.freq...

Hi There, We have this rather large-ish floor-standing Best Axxium Pro, Model Series 0650. I tried using both the "bestups" and "blazer_ser" drivers with it, but no go. So before I go any further: *Should* one of these work with it and, if not, do I have any options? (E.g.: Modify a current driver, resuscitate one that was started and abandoned, etc.? I can code.) My test platform was nut 2.4.3-1ubunt...

hi, i own a aeg protect home (think it is a 600 VA) which has a serial and an usb port. using this hack in ups.conf: [bestupsname] driver = bestups port = /dev/ttyUSB0 ID = FOR,750,230,230,11.0,13.5 desc = "home-server" i start the driver with: ./bestups -a bestupsname -D -q and after adding some debugging it seems to work (not yet in production). i first started by looking...

Hi list, on my previous (lenny or squeeze) machine, I had it up and running, but that machine and configs are gone - and on my new jessie machine (see device and config details below) I cannot start the driver: # /lib/nut/bestups -DDDDD -a Patriot_Pro_II_750 0.000000 debug level is '5' 0.000806 send_to_all: SETINFO device.type "ups" 0.000842 send_to_all: SETINFO driver.version "2.7.2" 0.000862 send_to_all: SETINFO driver.version.internal "1.06" 0.000884 sen...

Hi, i just got a Phoenix Technologies PH1200UPSB 1200va serial-port ups and it is only partially supported by bestups driver (needs manual ID or driver rewriting). It comes with a tool called UPSilon 2.1 on a CD (which worked better with TERM=linux). After [sl]tracing it i came to these results: COMMANDS : - Command: I Response: "#XPHOENIX TECH PH1200UPS VER2.00C " - Command: F Response: "#...

...ilarly, when I unplugged the unit around t=638, I also got "data stale" messages from upsd (probably at t=662.124768). I let it run the battery down, and plugged it back in just before t=2617.617643. My fault, I missed this line: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/drivers/bestups.c#L396 Apparently, the bypass/boost/buck bit is not reliable also when the UPS is performing a battery test (6th bit set to 1) or a shutdown is active (7th bit set to 1). Now it should be fixed: https://github.com/zykh/nut/tree/bestups I noticed that your UPS seems to support the 'M' comm...

All, I just bought a Belkin F6C1100-UNV and am trying to get it to work with NUT. I have tried many drivers ( "belkin", "belkinunv", "genericups upstype=4", and "genericups upstype=7", "bestups", "fentonups"). None of them seem to work. Does anyone have any experience with this device? If there is some utility that you all use to gather data from the device... for building drivers... let me know. I'm more than happy to help. Thanks, Dave P.S. I am using NUT v 2.0...

Hi All I am connecting a ups via a usb to serial converter. Works fine, however when the converter is unplugged and plugged back in, udev creates another device e.g instead of ttyUSB0 it creates ttyUSB1. Here is the udev rule that I added to the top of the 025_nut-usbups.rules file in order to create a static symlink should udev decide to create the device as either ttyUSB0 or ttyUSB1.
