An update - I ran a test by unplugging my UPS and letting it run down. The system shut down as it should. However, the /etc/killpower file was not created, and the UPS did not shut off power as it should from the shutdown scripts. This may be because the command to kill the output of the UPS isn't available, or that by not being able to log in as master prevents this. The permissions on the

Hello, I have encountered problems trying to set up nut to work with APC BackUps Pro CS connected over USB to an AMD64 machine running Debian. While apcupsd works fine with that device, whenever I start upsd I get the following messages in syslog: hidups[23159]: Startup successful upsd[23160]: Connected to UPS [apc1]: hidups-hiddev0 upsd[23161]: Startup successful hidups[23159]: Unhandled event:

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

Hi! I've got a Mandrake 2006.0 machine and a APC Back-UPS Pro 500/1000/1500 (from lsusb). The Mandrake package version of nut is 2.0.1 and hidups actually detects the UPS, however I get loads of these: Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Ignoring x86 page event 0xff860080 (0) Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Unhandled event: 0x840058 (6) Sep 12 18:26:11 vader hidups[7658]: Unhandled

I'd like to submit a patch to the 'hidups' driver. I'm a bit new to open-source development model, so I hope I'm not committing a faux paus by just posting it here. I did verify that the problem still exists (by source code inspection) in the latest dev snapshot, which is nut-2.0.3-pre2. I'm using nut-2.0.2 myself. The problem is when I'm connecting to my APC

Using the "hidups" driver produces better results, however, I'm not sure if these "unhandled events" errors are good or bad.. I would suspect bad... Any direction would be appreciated..

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

Greetings, I imagine this question must have been answered previously on the list, but I can't search for the answer because the archives are gone. Executive summary: I am trying to install and configure nut 2.0.1 on Fedora Core. I have a SmartUPS Pro plugged into a USB port. Upsmon is logging "UPS myups@localhost is unavailable" to syslog and via wall when it starts up and

Good afternoon, I am trying to communicate with a new Tripp-Lite UPS via usb and having little luck. After more than a week on this I've decided to ask for help. I am very inexperienced at posting information to message boards, so hopefully I'm doing this right. I assume this is the correct place to post this message. I will start with the equipment I have. I am using Debian Sarge

I Seem to have made some progress in getting nut-2.0.5 installed, but hidups still has a version number of 0.13. First is hidups 0.13 the correct version? if not how do I find the correct version. Second if my Geek Squad GS1285U UPS is not supported how do I proceed. I have been a programmer for 35 years(mostly high level computer aided design), written code in 20 some languages, am retired

I am having problems building usb on mac os x. First, mac os x doesn't seem to have asm/types.h, just sys/types.h. I can't find hiddev.h on mac os x either. Also, it doesn't have usb.h but instead IOKIT/usb/USB.h. I am using mac os x (10.4), and the latest cvs of nut. Is the new usb support going to work on mac os x? Is anyone working on it? It seems that libusb is available

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

I just installed NUT and my UPS is an APC Back-UPS ES 500. I looked in the list of drivers and found APC Back-UPS ES 350 listed in "drivers.txt" -- that list said I should use either the newhidups or hidups driver. I looked in the installation and I found headers and c files to create these drivers (I think), but in /usr/local/ups/bin there is no driver named, "newhidups or

Hi, All! I've recently bought an UPS. It is Krauler UP-M500VA, it has USB port and is a HID device. But as I discovered the only HID application it supports is 0x860004, so it isn't claimed by both hidups and newhidups drivers, because it uses a vendor-specific values. I tried to discover values in that x86 page, but I failed. How can I do it? And after I get values how to understand
