Hi, I've seen a few emails in the archives about problems polling MGE UPSs via USB under FreeBSD, but unfortunately I didn't find a solution in them that works for me. A few details about my setup.. The UPS is a MGE Nova AVR 600 connected via USB to a FreeBSD 6.2 box. I have tried both the nut port (2.0.5) and the svn trunk but have had no success yet. I am ru...

Hello, I've installed Nut (2.0.5) on RedHat a week ago, and upsmon seems to generate false alarms every hour: ...

Hello, I recently had a failure with my old MGE ESV8 ups, it just died on me so I had to get a new one. I found a MGE ESV8+ cheap and everything seems to work fine with it except the communication with the computer. The old ESV8 (non +) worked fine with NUT after applying some patches I got from the mailing list, but I think they are in the...

Hi, Perhaps as you know it Schneider Electric acquired APC, which involves the combination of APC and MGE. http://www.apc-mge.com MGE is an important contributor for NUT with for example Arnaud Quette, it's does not that the MGE strategy for the free software is stopped by Schneider Electric or APC. It is the good moment to make pressure on Schneider Electric, MGE and APC to support the NUT pr...

Dear users, This mail is to announce the beta availability of the mge-xml driver in NUT's trunk. This (overdue) driver allows to support MGE* (UPS Systems and Office Protection Systems) Network Management Cards. This development is sponsored by MGE Office Protection Systems, which is also the NUT sponsor, web hoster and (new) benefactor in general. This driver...

Hi, i had purchase a MGE-Ellipse 500 and i'm trying to use the DB9 F / RJ45 cable send by MGE with UPS. Which driver i'm suppose to use: mge-utalk or mge-shut ? When i try mge-utalk i've got this message: # upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.0 Network UPS Tools - MGE UPS SYSTEMS/U-Ta...

Hi all, First of all thanks for the great work on nut ! (despite it's not fully functional yet overhere). Everything seemed to go fine until the final test : shutdown the UPS ! The system is running FreeBSD 5.3, the UPS is MGE Ellipse 800 USBS both linked with the MGE serial cable. The system is a remote server, only running some file services and large disks. The porting, installation and scripting for nut went quite easily for a lowtech user as me (the user/group stuff a little tricky anyway). I used the nut-2...

I have an MGE Pulsar Evolution 1100 connected to a Debian box, with nut-2.0.1 (the standard "sarge" packages). I have it connected through USB, and I'm using newhidups. However, about once a day the driver looses contact with the UPS and I have to restart NUT to get it to drop the "data stale...

I'll be back one more time perhaps I found the reason of these errors Nov 13 11:09:22 mezenc upsmon[3865]: Poll UPS [mgeups at localhost] failed - Data stale it happens when daemon upsd et upsmon are started after the boot obviously, there isn't any errors when upsd and upsmon are started at boot following later ... -----Message d'origine----- De : goudard sabine Envoy? : mardi 13 novembre 2007 11:24 ?...

Hello, I'm facing problems as I'm installing NUT to monitor a MGE Ellipse ASR600USBS on a FreeBSD 6.1 box. UPS is recognized as : ugen0: MGE UPS SYSTEMS ELLIPSE, rev 1.10/42.41, addr 2 I'm temporarily using root profile (devfs/devd scripts not modified atm). newhidups starts & runs fine (unplugging mains makes newhidups outputs lots of data when star...

Hello, looking for replacements for some older Powerware equipment I found the MGE Pulsar Extreme 1000C and I'm currently testing one with nut-2.0.3 on a self-brewn i386-linux. Upto now everything seems to work fine - except I can't get the power outlets switching on again after mains returns. As this works with Personal Solution-Pac 2 on W2k I thought that there mig...

Dear Sirs, I have an old but very well-working UPS MGE Pulsar ESV8+ Rack. I'd like to use it to power FreeBSD 9.0-Rel server. Of fortunately I have problem with recommended driver - mge-utalk, nut 2.6.4 (installed from FreeBSD Ports). I get messages: Could not get multiplier table: using raw readings. and updateinfo: Cannot update system status...

As I saw on web site, I add maxage 25 in upsd.conf and DEADTIME 25 in upsmon.conf to avoid Data for UPS [mg...

Hi, I have recently purchased MGE ellipse 1200 UPS for my home system. Obviously, the choice of this particular brand was mainly dictated by MGE's long-standing support for Linux and NUT project. The fact that the box was clearly the prettiest looking one on the block did help also ;-). I have had NUT tools installed and co...

Hello happy nuters, Some complementary words about making nut 2.02 successfully run on FreeBSD with MGE Ellipse. With the usefull information Arnaud sent, it's rather obvious that the erratic response of the ups to the shutdown script is linked to its difficulty to handle large traffic on the serial line. These are the final tweak I made to have this configuration satisfyingly operationa...

Hi All, I have an mge pulsar esv 14+ rackmount UPS connected via straight through serial cable to a USB to serial adaptor (My motherboard does not have a native RS232 port). I am running Ubuntu Server 9.04 x64, and nut 2.4.1-2ubuntu4 installed via APT. I am getting the error: Poll UPS [ups1 at localhost] failed - Dri...

Hi I have Pulsar 1000 (MGE) and mge-shut 2.0.5-3. By default mge-shut don;t reboot ups after upsmoc -c fsd, only permanent powerdown. After I add ondelay=30 in config, all nice, ups restarted after 10 sec. But according man mge-shut ondelay measured in tens of seconds and by default equal 3. -- Olleg Samoylov
