similar to: Powerware Prestige EXT 1000VA / PowerWorks A30 support?

Hello, does NUT support Powerware Prestige EXT 1000VA / PowerWorks A30 models in smart mode? I don't see them mentioned in the compatibility list (only Powerware 3115 and 5119 are there, listed as supported only by the "genericups" driver). Is the protocol known to be compatible with any other, supported UPS types? Thanks, Marek

Hi all, I've more-or-less got NUT 2.0.4 working with my Powerware Prestige 1000VA UPS (serial), but unfortunately NUT is flagging LOW_BATTERY continuously, which is a tad embarrassing when power fails ;-) The numbers from upsc blah at localhost seem reasonable: ambient.temperature: 24.5 battery.charge: 99 battery.runtime: 3999 battery.voltage: 69.2 driver.name: bcmxcp

Hi, I've got a Powerware Prestige 9 1kVA UPS that seems to not be working with nut. It's not in the current "supported hardware" list, but the old bcmxcp page lists it as being a UPS that speaks that protocol. I have the following in my ups.conf [powerware] driver = bcmxcp port = /dev/ttyS0 desc = "Powerware Prestige 9 EXT" baud_rate = 2400 And when I start the

I noted some correspondence from several years back about supporting this device with bcmxcp, and the problems therein. Since I have one of these UPS units, still going strong, and the Eaton LanSafe stuff has finally caused me enough grief to abandon it, I figured I'd take a look at this. The issue is not that bad - the bcmxcp driver query of the topology block (2 bytes!) is returning

Looking for Powerware Prestige 9 Series 6000VA. If you know where I can buy one please respond. thanks!

Run the driver with -DDDDD and see what variables it picks up. I have noted that with the Prestige 9 in bcmxcp, some variables are not consistent within models, and had to do some gentle remapping to get things to work correctly. - Tim On 02/12/2014 06:46 PM, Greg Vickers wrote: > Hi all, > > I've hooked up an Eaton Powerware 5110 to Ubuntu 13.10 server, and > configured nut

Tim, is this the issue you mentioned on 2014-02-02 with blocks 0x9 and 0x13? I'll reply to that email. > On

I'm currently testing the bcmxcp driver for NUT, and it causes me some trouble. And when scanning the archives it seems like the 3110 USB problem reported recently. The bcmxcp daemon stops running, and the logs shows the following: Oct 6 14:22:32 host.dom.tld bcmxcp[82628]: Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (data): got -1 bytes instead of 28!!!

I'm trying to get a Powerware 5125 UPS running using the bcmxcp driver, but I get the following errors: video2:~# /sbin/upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.4 Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.0.4) Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command Communications with UPS lost: Error executing

The driver will poll the UPS for what variables it supports when it starts, and then go into a polling loop. Look for a section defining the meter map, and you should see the result, as well as the raw data. You can get the comm spec for XCP from the nut site if you want to delve deeper. I'd give more specifics, but am out of town and only working from memory at the moment . . . - Tim On

Hi, just through setting up nut-2.0.2 I ran into a shutdown problem. As I have already spend some time on it and don't know any further, I like to ask for advice.

During the last month, I've been integrating a Powerware 5115 into an embedded system by writing a custom NUT daemon. This work has gone quite well and NUT has been very helpful, but it sure would be nice to have some additional instcmds for the 5115. The bcmxcp driver comments mention "manuals for the BCM/XCP". I'm wondering if I could get a copy of those so that I might

Hi all, I've hooked up an Eaton Powerware 5110 to Ubuntu 13.10 server, and configured nut appropriately. The cgi scripts are working fine, but on upsstats.cgi, the Batter, UPS Temp and Battery Runtime fields are all blank - and there are no entries for these values in the 'All data' tree. I've checked the man page for bcmxcp_usb

hello everyone, I've been testing the NUT solution as opposed to the undocumented LanSafe application to control my Eaton UPS. I am on a Slackware 13.37 system with a 2.6.37.6 kernel. NUT version is 2.4.3 . I installed the tarball by compiling it directly on my system (as a slackbuild package). The UPS is an Eaton Powerware 9155, but I don't know how to obtain the manufacturing date. The

I ordered some Powerware 3105 devices for Linux workstations. These devices only have an USB interface. I understood too late that support for Powerware devices is only available for the serial interface. Since the protocols over serial and USB seem to be identical, it was not too difficult to modify the bcmxcp driver to support USB. The new and changed files can be found here:
