UPS has no built-in monitor. [GishPuppy]
...ux machine, rather than my having to attempt such programming in the Windows environment.
Of course, if someone has already developed what I described, then that would be even better, but I haven't found it in the Nut lists or documentation, yet.
Thank you for any assistance you may provide.

In most cases, you can add a devd (FreeBSD) or udev (Linux) rule that triggers when a device disa...

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that tapping into the serial port

system shut down, so I can be okay without the low battery signal.
I respectfully disagree
