Hello, I have bought Powerman Optima 500 Plus UPS. While this product might be unknown outside Russia, it is shipped with megatec software and obviously works with megatec driver in NUT. besides the following problems (I think they are caused by one reason): 1) megatac driver is able to load and detect UPS only on second or third run. On the first run it typically fails. Later if daemon is being stoped and started again it&...

Hi again, I tested several times using the Megatec driver from nut 2.2.2 to no avail, as it definitely never "sees" the UPS. Always getting : # drivers/megatec -DDD -a Alpha Network UPS Tools 2.2.2 - Megatec protocol driver 1.5.14 [megatec] Carlos Rodrigues (c) 2003-2008 debug level is '3' Starting UPS detection process...

Hi Alexander, How to megatec driver communication windows c++.NET or C#.net. Thanks. Yi?it YALNIZ?A -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsdev/attachments/20141023/2384ce84/attachment.html>

...project since (and besides this I'm not a developper...). 2 days ago I upgraded from Ubuntu Gutsy to Ubuntu Hardy and got a new "nut" package with the distro upgrade (Version: 2.2.1-2.1ubuntu7) and discovered that the fentonups driver had disappeared. I trie to use the new "megatec" driver to no avail : # /sbin/upsdrvctl -DDD start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.1- Starting UPS: Alpha exec: /lib/nut/megatec -a Alpha Network UPS Tools 2.2.1- - Megatec protocol driver 1.5.13 [megatec] Carlos Rodrigues (c) 2003-2007 Megatec protocol UPS not detected.

Hi! This is the weirdest problem I have found for a long time! Using nut-2.0.5 and a Gentoo powered HP Proliant ML350 I setup the config files just the same as I always do and tried to get the megatec driver chatting to the UPS. It worked fine on a Windoze server with Upsilon2000 so I have a bit of confidence in cable etc! When I ran upsc after starting upsd to complained about stale data! Most unfair! I then shutdown upsd and upsdrv and ran megatec -a rossups -DDDDD I found horrid messages a...

Hi everybody, I've got an Unitek iZi UPS 525 with a serial interface. The supplied cable looks fairly simple: RX->RX , TX->TX and GND->GND. Using this cable and Minicom with 2400 8N1 I'm able to issue commands to the UPS using the "Megatec Protocol" http://www.networkupstools.org/protocols/megatec.html so I know the UPS is fairly "intelligent" :-) and the serial connection works. Questions: 1. Which cable should I use for "Megatec Protocol"? Yes, I've read the aforementioned document but the hardwar...

NUT recently stopped working on my debian. I'm not sure which upgrade broke it. ups.conf: [mustek] driver = megatec port = /dev/ttyS0 desc = "mustek ups" # upsd -DDDD Network UPS Tools upsd 2.4.1 listen_add: added ::1:3493 listen_add: added 127.0.0.1:3493 setuptcp: try to bind to 127.0.0.1 port 3493 listening on 127.0.0.1 port 3493 setuptcp: try to bind to ::1 port 3493 listening on...

...like there are some models for which we can preset a multiplier. One > of them even reports a wrong nominal battery voltage (12V instead of 24V), > we might even correct that. Now, I think I should take the opportunity to ask if any of the people reading this list is willing to help test the megatec driver, or even take maintainership of it. For a while now I've been using a virtual machine to test changes to the driver, but now I don't have a machine with a serial port anymore, so I'm unable to test with real hardware (even from inside a VM). I could, of course, buy myself a usb-...

Ubuntu 8.04 Nut : Version: 2.2.1-2.1ubuntu7.2 Hello, I choose the megatec driver and I connect through a serial cable. I receive a "This UPS has an unsupported combination of battery voltage/number of batteries" message. I know this is not an error but I don't really what I have to do next. Here is the result of /lib/nut/megatec -a infosec -DDD debug lev...

I had some free time this weekend, and made some long overdue changes to "megatec". The thing is, these changes lead to a couple of questions that I must ask before I go on and "svn commit" them: 1) The blazer, fentonups, esupssmart, ippon, sms and mustek drivers are now completely covered and all of their functionality should now be present in megatec, and also...

Hello, i've a problem, this is my configuration: - Atlantis Land UPS with serial port - a generic RS232 to USB cable adapter (QinHeng Electronics HL-340 USB-Serial adapter for linux). The problem is in the syslog file where i find: [...] Aug 19 09:07:25 ProLiant megatec[1126]: Communications with UPS lost: No status from UPS.

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" on "bestups"), but that's not mandatory in &qu...

Hi all, Currently, the "megatec" driver only supports UPSes which have a serial (RS232) interface. However, I'm under the impression that most of the models that speak the megatec protocol, and have an USB interface, just have a standard serial-to-USB converter inside. This being the case, there should be a "/dev/t...

Hi to all, I am new on the lists but using nut on megatec for last two and half years. Looking at archives I saw that there is a lot of people confused about battery voltage and I want to help them to clear out some stuff in their heads. This story is based on my experience with UPS devices from 600VA to 20kVA, from single phase systems to three phas...

...that while it definitely is recognized as USB device, the HID descriptor has no UPS pages at all. The only software it came with was a windows program written in visual basic. Trying to research this topic I found a reference to energizer USB ups driver and learned about variety of UPSes that speak megatec protocol and have proprietary usb-to-serial connectors. The energizer driver did not work for me - my converter was different. The usb-serial chip used in my UPS (SVEN Pro+ usb series) is a complete OEM hack. Apparently the only reason it is a HID device is so usermode application can access...

Hi Alexander, thanks for your good work on the megatec_usb driver. I have made a few more (cosmetic) changes. Is the driver now working stably for your device? In particular, do the instant commands (and particularly "upsdrvctl -k") work properly? In this case, we could hopefully mark the device as "supported" and merge the driver...
