Hello.

upsmon.conf using NOTIFCMD and NOTIFYFLG is working well, it is calling my script "notify" on requested events (ONBATTERY,LOWBATTERY and ONLINE). Command #upsmon -c fsd -u monmaster myups at localhost gracefully shutdown my box and after several seconds switch off the ups's load. Two problems: - notify script is called and executed as user "nut" (as it used to be

I was looking at how other drivers deal with outlet collections, and I noticed some differences between newhidups in 2.0.4 (from Debian's 2.0.4-2.3) and the SVN trunk (rev 723) on an Evolution. Full diff is below, but here are the highlights: * MGE HID 0.9 vs 1.0 * outlet.#.switch seems to have moved to the commands outlet.#.load.{on,off} Then I found this in the ChangeLog: * fix

Hello, we have a MGE Pulsar Evolution 800 connected to a Fedora Core5 Server using a serial cable. Installed and configured properly are RPM versions of nut-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 nut-client-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 nut-cgi-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 which all work (mostly) fine. The server is connected to outlet.0 and properly shuts down when it's loosing power after around 20 minutes. It also boots up whenever the ups

Hello Charles, Thank you so much for your help. Just run upsc and it is possible that input.transfer.low is the one because we used power regulator to bring down the power around 84v and then the ups sent the power loss message to PC. Do you think some others may take effect for the low voltage? Just have the upsc result attached. Then I retried input.transfer.low, default.input.transfer.low,

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 configured in no time, as I did it numerous times before -- kudos

Hi, I am trying to talk to an MGE Pulsar Extreme UPS over RS232 with the mge-shut driver but I'm having some problems. It appears to init OK but I can't, say, turn the outlets off, eg.. harrow:~>upsc mge@localhost battery.charge: 78 battery.charge.low: 20 battery.runtime: 05760 driver.name: mge-shut driver.parameter.port: /dev/cuad1 driver.version: 2.0.3 driver.version.internal: 0.65

Hi! We have two MGE Evolution 1100 here, and I want to make use of the powershare outlets to force a particular boot sequence on the machines powered by them. However I'm not sure how to set those variables upon NUT starting, without having to change the init scripts to call "upsrw". Is there some place where I can set them, where they can be read automatically on startup? One of

Anyway, it is a strange thing that I can set the waiting time for power to be restored if main power comes back before offdelay has elapsed, but the UPS ignores this setting if main power comes back after

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,

Hi, FINALLY got my UPS working, YEA!!!! But now it brings up even more issues.. (BOOO!!) 1) I'm thinking this is a UPS issue, but when I pull the plug on my UPS, it goes from 100 to 30 in just a short amount of time (Minutes). This causes the machine to shut down. But once it gets to 0, its beeped its little heart out for a few more HOURS providing power to the non-system items perfectly.

Hi, I've have had some difficulties to run NUT on freebsd, but I finally managed to have something that work reliably enough. For those who may be interested, here is what I did. Os: FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7, nut: 2.2.0, libusb: 0.1.12 First, I had to patch libusb with the changes submitted by Nevil Thatcher in the nutups forum in may 2006. Without this change, nothing works.

Hey Charles, Latest update. Looks like in ups.conf I setup default.input.transfer.low = 84. After I took that line out, restart upsdrvctl, upsmon, and upsd, the command of sudo upsrw -s input.transfer.low=70 -u * -p * ups return OK. Still need to verify if it works by using voltage regulator and will keep you updated. Thank you for your help Regards Shen On Thu, Jun 5, 2014 at 8:54 AM,

Hi all, some time ago I bought at discount price a NMC for managing a few computers using the programmable outlets features available on my MGE Evolution, unuseful otherwise (ATM). However, expecially for my server machine, I don't like very much the NSM client provided by MGE/Eaton and I'd rather use only NUT from my distribution. So, looking at the netxml-ups driver, I started adding

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 might be a way to

Hello, Sorry if any of this is obvious - I'm new to NUT. NUT via upsc is displaying (edited for length): device.model: Eaton 5P 2200 device.type: ups driver.name: usbhid-ups ups.alarm: Fatal EEPROM fault! ups.status: ALARM OL CHRG ups.test.interval: 604800 ups.test.result: Done and passed driver.version: 2.7.2 driver.version.data: MGE HID 1.33 driver.version.internal: 0.38 Is this possibly

Hi Powermen ;-) I recently came across the Powerman project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/powerman/), pointed by Tony Merenda, from Opengear (thanks Tony). Congrats for your work in this area! I've thought a bit about Powerman and NUT since then... NUT currently supports hosts of UPSs and few PDUs (RPCs), and provides tons of features: http://test.networkupstools.org
