...unning NUT. The RPi is powered by the inverter, and it powers the Arduino over USB. The RPi stays on during a power outage. So now I can write some Arduino code that loops and checks the status of a digital pin. How do I pretend to be a UPS in a way NUT will recognize? Some googling led me to the HIDPowerDevice project. https://github.com/abratchik/HIDPowerDevice. That is a library for Arduino MCUs that does all the protocol for getting an Arduino device to be recognized as a HID compliant UPS device over USB. You use it by periodically calling a `sendReport` function with various flags set. Ex: PowerDevi...

I put together my own DIY UPS, it's a RV charger/converter, an inverter, and some batteries. I use an Arduino and the HIDPowerDevice library ( https://github.com/abratchik/HIDPowerDevice) to get it to talk to NUT. Been working great for months! The Arduino is connected to two modules: * AC detection circuit to measure mains power on/off * Voltage divider and an external ADC to get a reasonably good DC voltage level for the batt...

I posted earlier on this list about getting an Arduino Pro Micro using https://github.com/abratchik/HIDPowerDevice in a simple sketch to monitor a DIY UPS I have built. With the changes from that thread (I had a PR merged), I was able to get usbhid-ups to recognize my device and could setup NUT the rest of the way. My intended configuration is to run NUT on a Raspberry Pi, have that device be master and then ha...

Hello, I found out about NUT just days ago while searching for a solution for my home setup. After some digging through the interwebs, I come to you with questions. I'm putting together a DIY 12V UPS, very similar to what this guy did: [1] https://baldpenguin.blogspot.com/2015/10/diy-12v-ups-for-home-network-equipment.html The objective is to keep a bunch of mini PCs and network gear

...: I've got a DIY UPS that I would like to get working with my QNAP NAS (which uses Linux and NUT underneath the hood) Immediate short-term problem: I can't get past running usbhid-ups on Ubuntu 23.10 with an Arduino Leonardo. I have an Arduino Micro using this https://github.com/abratchik/HIDPowerDevice/ library. I have a sketch working successfully with both Win10 and MacOS. They both recognize the Arduino as a HID power device and detect the AC present true/false as well as a hard-coded (for now) charge state. Before getting it to work with the QNAP I thought it would be easier to get this work...
