I think the time for me to get involved in NUT documentation has come again. Late last week I had to buy a UPS under time pressure. The Eaton unit that thus project gifted me with in 2006(?) died during a severe thunderstorm watch, so it was off to MicroCenter to get a replacement pronto. I wound up buying an APC BN700MC. It was what they had in the performance range I needed. The removable

Thanks d tbsky, Actually, my nut server is connected via usb. APC looks to be a very common UPS brand. I wonder whether there is another version of the usbhid server or another server for this UPS ?

Thanks tbskyd As the UPS also communicates via Ethernet, I was wondering whether some non usb drivers would have been developed to collect ups data. Right now, I?m only getting basic emails from APC when the ups is on battery or back to power.

Hi All, About a month ago APC announced they were including MODBUS protocol support in their new APC UPSes. The technical note on this is here: http://www.apcmedia.com/salestools/MPAO-98KJ7F/MPAO-98KJ7F_R0_EN.pdf "Application Note #176 Modbus Implementation in APC Smart-UPS" The APC "announcement" appeared on their site in their user blogs by an APC employee, here:

Hello mailing List. I manage 2 UPS via NUT, an APC Smart-UPS_1500 and an ?EATON 5S 1500. I can get load information on the EATON but not on the APC. Actually upsc doesn?t give much information on the APC. Does someone know whether this is a driver limitation or a configuration issue ? Many thanks for your views. Laurent PS: my goal is to monitor the UPS and raise alarms if upsc detects

I have an APC SMX3000RMLV2UNC UPS, with installed network card model AP9631. http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=SMX3000RMLV2UNC http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP9631 I planned to use network connectivity with this unit and apcupsd, but have not this far. The UPS is shared by multiple servers, so a USB or Serial connection via the

Hello, I'm testing an APC SMT3000RMI2U connected to an USB port with Nut 2.7.2. I've got the message : "interrupt pipe disabled (add 'pollonly' flag to 'ups.conf' to get rid of this message)" I've been looking for "pollonly" in the usbhid-ups man page, but it didn't help me. Could someone explain me what does this means exactly ? What are

Hi! I was wonering if there is a driver that supports communicating with a Modbus aware device over IP. I have a solar/wind invertor that can broadcast its state and I would like to monitor the batteries. If they discarge to a certain voltage or come to a defined state, I would perform a shutdown. All of this information id provided in Modbus holding registers. This could of course be done
