Hi, it'd be great if you could update the documentation on the website that some models of the Belkin -UNV series will only work with the megatec(_usb) drivers. I wasted a lot of time on trying to get it to work with the wrong drivers, and would like to spare others the pain :-). Thanks, ~David P.S. Some forum post said that the stable megatec drivers don't work 100% with the belkin UPS,

Greetings! Thanks to all the developers who have made this project so far. Searching for a Linux based Belkin UPS monitor led me straight to the Network UPS Tools. I have bought a Belkin F6C900-UNV (900VA) for use on a Slackware 10.2 server to replace an older APC model that died suddenly. So far I have successfully managed to get NUT 2.0.5 compiled and configured and found that this Belkin

Hi everyone, I have a belkin ups that was bought around 2 months ago. It seems like the driver doesn't like the UPS, although on the website it's listed as supported. This is on a gentoo system with nut 2.2.1 . megatec_usb output: ---------SNIP---------- digamma nut # ./megatec_usb -a belkinm -DDDDDD Network UPS Tools 2.2.1 - Megatec protocol driver 1.5.9 [megatec_usb] Carlos Rodrigues

I just bought a pair of Belkin USB UPSes -- F6C1200-UNV and F6C550-AVR -- and installed the latest version of nut under Ubuntu 7.04. I'm using the F6C1200-UNV. My system does see the device; dmesg says [ 82.718428] usb 2-2: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 [ 82.941189] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 83.036825] usbcore: registered new driver

Hi. My Belkin UPS F6C1100-UNV works fine with megatec_usb version 1.6 (2.4.1). However, it doesn't work with 2.4.2 nor 2.4.3. # /lib/nut/megatec_usb_old -D -a belkin Network UPS Tools - Megatec protocol driver 1.6 (2.4.1) Serial-over-USB transport layer 0.10 debug level is '1' Starting UPS detection process... 0 out of 5 detection attempts failed (minimum failures: 2).

Hi Andy, I've forwarded your info to the development list, and Carlos Rodrigues (the megatec driver author and maintainer. As a side note, there is a megatec_usb driver underway. You might want to give it a try. @Carlos: I let you update the drivers.list.

Hi, I've been fighting with trying to get a Belkin Universal model F6C800-UNV to work with NUT. The error I am getting is as follows: ---------------------------------------------- * Starting UPS drivers ...

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

Hi Everyone, I am new to UPSs and Linux.? I purchased a Belkin F6C750-AVR UPS for our church.? We are?running CENTOS 5.2. I tried the Linux Power Management Software that came with Belkin UPS with NO success. I installed the NUT software. After some experimentation I received some success with the megatec_usb Nut driver: [root at server bin]# /sbin/megatec_usb -u root -a serverups -DDDD

Hello, all, I had been using NUT's Ubuntu package (64 bit) with no problems until upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04. Now, I get the following message when I try usbhid-ups: $ sudo /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -a mybelkin Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.35 (2.6.0) USB communication driver 0.31 Can't claim USB device [050d:1100]: could not detach kernel driver from interface 0: Operation not

I just moved my UPS over from serial to USB and found that I needed to add it to the hotplug USB list to make things work. Belkin F6C120-UNV - Bus 002 Device 004: ID 050d:0912 Belkin Components It seems to be working OK on 2.0.4 with newhidups. Attached is a patch which I think should add the appropriate device id's in the right places to the trunk code. Jon -------------- next part

I have a new Belkin F6C900-UNV. I see that it's not listed in belkin-hid.c The VendorID is 0x050d like all the Belkin UPSes, and the ProductID is 0x0900. I haven't had a chance to actually test the development version of nut yet, since I'm running Fedora Core 6, which still has nut 2.0.3. `newhidups -DD -a myups` gives the error of: Checking device (050D/0900) (001/002) - VendorID:

I'm trying to set up a belkin f6c1100-unv UPS to work with nuts. From reading the mailing list, it sounds like the belkinunv serial driver should work and that the USB driver is potentially troublesome. Is this a correct impression? Also I may have missed this but if I do go with the serial (or USB port) is there any simple command line method for verifying basic connectivity? The

Hi there! I'm a n00b NUT user trying to get it running on RHEL5 and actually do something useful for me. Few questions: 1) I want it to notify me by email on power loss and power back events. I can't find any sample scripts for this purpose... Where shall I look for them? 2) So far, I've backported the package from Fedora and got my Ablerex running (previously used with Upsilon /

I recently bought a Belkin F6H375 UPS. It connects to the computer via USB. Searching the Internet led me to believe that the megatec_usb driver in nut supports this UPS, however I've been unable to get it to work. I have this in ups.conf: [belkinusb] driver = megatec_usb port = auto desc = "Belkin USB" Here's what happens when I try to use it: ~ #

Zaid, I have a Belkin F6C800-UNV which has both a serial and USB connector. The serial connection is already working with the Belkinunv driver. I will connect via the USB and then compare both sets of variables. This should allow me to correlate and shed some light on the meaning of many of Belkin's non-standard "Usage" descriptors. With this information, it should be very easy
