BestPower Ferrups driver glitch with f commands
I did the testing you suggested, and it was indeed the whitespace. I added another if clause test to the function and everything seems to work. I have working driver that I will email a patch for this list. My coworker says the model ID is configurable though, so we will try that first, which would negate the need to patch the driver. ________________________________________ From: Charles Lepple

We are using the bestfcom driver because the driver listed our UPS as supported. The driver fails, however, because "fc" commands do not exist on the unit. There is a upsdrv_init_nofc() function, but it seems to be

BestPower Ferrups driver glitch with f commands
The problem will only affect newer firmwares on the BestPower FerrUPS 2.1kva units. Additional white-space was the issue. I added a if clause to the bestfcom driver to account for this without breaking what was there. Here is the patch: diff -rupN release-orig/nut-2.7.1/drivers/bestfcom.c release-patched/nut-2.7.1/drivers/bestfcom.c --- release-orig/nut-2.7.1/drivers/bestfcom.c 2013-07-31

Problem with bestfcom and old Ferrups
I have an old (1997) Best Ferrups (model FE18KVA) that I am trying to monitor for the first time, but all the Best drivers fail to communicate with it. In ups_sync() in bestuferrups.c and bestfcom.c, the "time" command is sent and a one-line response is read. However, on my UPS, that command returns the current time and then prompts for a new time setting. I worked around that by just

Patch for bestfcom driver
To deal with small model string differences that are present on the BestPower FerrUPS 2.1Kva ups, I have the patch below. The change in formatting seams to exist in firmware 9.28 and I think even older firmware. The patch is against the 2.7.1 bestfcom driver. Please pardon any errors in my patch submission has I have only submitted a patch once or twice before. This patch should fix a situation

Best Ferrups reporting uptime in minutes, not seconds
I had a power hiccup yesterday and a server connected to a Best Ferrups 18KVA shutdown. The problem is that the UPS is reporting remaining runtime in minutes but nut treats it as seconds (so nut thought it only had 46 seconds left). Simple patch: diff -urN nut-2.2.1-dist/drivers/bestfcom.c nut-2.2.1/drivers/bestfcom.c --- nut-2.2.1-dist/drivers/bestfcom.c 2008-06-13 14:04:07.000000000 -0500

Call for testing: bestfcom (Best Ferrups/Fortress driver)
If you have a BestPower FerrUPS 2.1kva or similar UPS, and use the bestfcom driver, could you please test the following patch? https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/compare/bestfcom_FE I'd like to merge it in for the next release of NUT, but I have no confirmation as to whether it works, or makes things worse.

Best Ferrups (bestfcom patch)
Hello, I have a Best Ferrups 3.1KVA and I noticed that the percent battery voltage reported from upsc never gets above 69.9%. I believe there is a mistake in the driver. The battery percentage is calculated based on the High Battery Alarm Setpoint (59.6V) instead of the Ideal Voltage which is about 54V (4 batteries x 13.6V). I examined the source code and found that the variable fc.fullvolts is

Best Power FE700VA?
I have an excellent old Best Power FE700VA but am suprised it's unlisted.? I thought Best Power ones were for critical applications, mostly for POSIX-based (Unix, etc.) servers, so I want to run it on 64-bit Slackware GNU/Linux.? I'm wondering why, or if it may be added in the future, or if there are any other options.

Driver bestfcom - Timing problem with Fortress LI1420
Hi, my UPS is a Best Fortress LI1420 with the monitoring master running fedora 7. I have to replace the manufacturer's software "Checkups II" because it's not working with releases after fc4. My choice is the nut package. But it isn't just installing rpm's and configure the parameter files. ? The first hurdle to take was realising the UPS doesn't send a prompt.

APC Back UPS and Best Power FERRUPS?
Lately I got (used) an APC Back UPS Pro 1000 and Back UPS NS 1080. I got an ethernet-to-USB cable from another UPS, but the Pro isn't detected (with usbhid-ups.) I haven't tried the NS yet but it seems to not be on the list though looks just like the Pro. Some months ago I was discussing setup of a Ferrups 700VA.  I got it to work only with a command in rc.local, but not automatically

Is anyone working on the bestfcom driver ?
I've just started using nut , and one of my UPSes is a Best Ferrups 1.8kva bestfcom seems to be the driver that would support it, but as currently in 2.0.2 it doesn't work on the FE1.8kv. I've done some hacking this afternoon and have it basically working. This is the only Best I have, so if anyone else is working on this, I was hoping to co-ordinate so I don't break any

Patch for addition of Cyberpower RMCARD100, 201, 202, 301 (snmp mib)
I did a bunch of work on this today. It should be all set to go. This patch is to add support for the Cyberpower RMCARD snmp cards. I basically copied the driver for bestpower, changed the name and updated the mib map. I have this running on two separate systems (two separate ups's) and it looks good. The only thing I could not figure out was updating the Makefile.am (my aclocal/libtools

Patch -- SVN revision in the version string
This is the patch to include SVN revision level in version number displays. There should be two enclosures; the patch itself and a new source file. common/upsversion.c. upversion.c defines a single function. upsversion(), that returns a version string for display. Some Makefile trickery ensures that this file will be recompiled whenever the project's SVN revision level has changed since it
