Hello, I encountered a problem with my APC Smart-UPS 750, connected via USB, using newhidups. Without any reason, nut/upsmon shut down my PC: >>> Oct 13 12:57:08 echo kernel: usb 2-9.1.1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd newhidups rqt 161 rq 1 len 8 ret -71 Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: UPS smart750@localhost on battery Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: UPS smart750@localhost

Hello, We have two APC Back-UPS RS 1500 USB stuff, and i've got a bit of a problem with it and NUT. The usbdevs output: addr 2: Back-UPS RS 1500 FW:8.g8 .I USB FW:g8, American Power Conversion addr 3: Back-UPS RS 1500 FW:8.g8 .I USB FW:g8, American Power Conversion (UPS1 and UPS2) I've configured our NUT system to monitor the UPSes, and it went very fine till the time had arrived for a

I was testing out newhidups with an APC UPS, and I noticed that I needed '-x vendor=American.Power.*' instead of '-x vendor=APC.*' as indicated in the man page. Do other APC USB UPSes use 'APC' in the vendor string? Should we sidestep any such problems and just go with the hex vendor ID for APC examples? This was tested with a snapshot from the development branch, but the

Thought I would write some notes about how I got an APC BackUPS XS 1500 working with newhidups under Gentoo 2006.0. The specific issue here is the permissions on the device files used that libusb uses to access the USB hardware. I followed Peter Selinger's instructions at http://www.mscs.dal.ca/~selinger/ups/backups.html on getting newhidups going with an APC device. The sticking point for

I have a new APC Back-UPS XS 1200.

Hi, I'm new to nut, just installed it. I configured it using the hidups driver to work with my APC BackUPS: # upsc apc350@localhost battery.charge: 100 battery.runtime: 885 battery.voltage: 13.5 driver.name: hidups driver.parameter.port: /dev/usb/hiddev0 driver.version: 2.0.0 ups.delay.shutdown: -1 ups.delay.start: 0 ups.load: 660 ups.mfr: American Power Conversion ups.model: Back-UPS CS 350

I'm using an APC Back-UPS XS with nut 2.0.3. I've recompiled/reinstalled the source, and switched over to the newhidups driver (instead of the old hidups driver). I modified by ups.conf to use newhidups. The hotplug files were not automatically installed, I had to copy those from the scripts directory to my hotplug/usb directory. The newhidups driver loads find and then works for a

Hi there, been using NUT for ages and recently upgraded to a new server; while I'm waiting for a USB->Serial adapter for Solaris to arrive, I thought I'd play with the newhidups, as the APC UPS I have has a USB port and the new server doesn't have a serial port.... I've got Solaris 10 & newhidups working with the ugen driver up to a point, and that is a read

Well, after our first real extended power outage, I found out that even though the UPS 1000 RM is recognized okay, it does not work properly. It never seems to see any change in UPS status. It looks very similar to the other issue I reported with the APC CyberFort 350. I never was able to get to the bottom of the CyberFort issue, but I'll bet it's the same issue as we have with the

Hi again, I've succeeded in compiling the svn trunk with the automake tools and wish to say thank you to Charles Lepple for his help. After fixing some parameters in the hotplug script I can now get access to the UPS on /dev/usb/hiddev0 (I added productid and vendorid of my ups to the usermap). I've decided to try the newhidups driver with -x generic parameter and got this response :

I ran into the following issue today and would like some feedback from the group. Setup: I am using a MGE Pulsar Evolution 2200 UPS connected through a Belkin (F5U218-MOB) 4-Port USB Hub. Scenario: The newhidups subdriver_matcher function calls belkin_subdriver->belkin_claim. The belkin_claim function in belkin-hid.c matches the VendorID of the hub to Belkin's VendorID (0x050d), causing

is there a way to override the productid (like -x productid=1234) when using newhidups? just thought i'd try it with the F6C1500-TW-RK over usb. i was able to get hidups to work using the below settings, but it provides limited information. my ups.conf entry: [belkin] driver = hidups port = /dev/usb/hiddev0 and the output of upsc: gateway:/etc/nut# upsc

Hello everyone! If this message was posted twice, my apologies. I'm having issues with my webmail today... I am using the testing version of NUT from SVN at changeset 582. I have successfully created a stub for newhidups driver for my Dynex DX-800U UPS, but I am completely lost on the customization of it. I've followed the hid-subdrivers.txt instructions and I understand I need to

Gentlemen, I have determined that on my UPS (APC Back-UPS ES 650 FW:818.w1.D USB FW:w1), the variable UPS.PowerSummary.RemainingCapacityLimit is writeable. I am setting this variable to start shutdown a little earlier. Appended is an unconditional patch for apc-hid.h. If, as indicated by the original code, there are APC UPS devices that don't allow setting of this variable, it becomes
