You wouldn't happen to know anyone who would be able to publish the specs of that protocol, would you? ;-) That would help remove the "experimental driver" warning.

<nut-upsuser at lists.alioth.debian.org> I am doing my best to avoid have to spend $280 for a network monitoring card to put into a $190 UPS just to have some good remote monitoring capabilities. Rather, I would like to monitor my many 1U Tripp Lite's on my network using a Raspberry Pi running Raspian and using NUT. However, I cannot seem to get it working. And I while the hardware

Charles, I need so major help with getting development build working and need some assistance. Here are the issues that we are running into: Number 1 change - 2.7.2 no longer has the HAL scripts that 2.6.5 has. I am working on if HAL is actually required on CentOS6.6 with the 2.7.2 code or if they have another way around it. This is code diving which is taking some time. Number 2 change -

I installed nut from the epel repository on Scientific Linux 7.

Hello Charles, Thanks for the feedback. I will try to answer some of these questions: > 09AE/0001 is essentially a USB-to-serial converter, and is not > compatible with usbhid-ups.

Ah, that

Greetings to all, I recently connected a Tripp Lite SMX500RT1U unit to a Synology NAS (basically a Marvell ARM equipped box running a custom 2.6.24 Linux). I tried using the tripplite_usb driver contained in nut 2.4.1 with not much luck. It does read the model ID and VA rating properly, but fails at everything else - mains voltage (this is a 230VAC EU model), battery config, unit status etc.

Charles, Thanks again for your help. We were able to have a 2.7.2.6 build complied into a working RPM for CENTOS 6.6. There is one more issue that needs to be addressed: The init script no longer works so a new script needs to be written to enable and disable the ups functionality, however it is communicating with the UPS properly. The question I have at this point is, is there a way I can

Hello, My name is Eric Cobb and I am a Product Specialist with Tripp Lite. We have tested your latest NUT distributions against our HID USB compatible UPS systems and would like to know what is needed and/or who is needed to contact in order to updated the listing of compatible Tripp Lite UPS systems in your HCL list?

Hi Eric, From end users of NUT,

Hello Charles, Thank you for all of your help this far. I have made some great progress. I was hung up with all sorts of USB problems which we can chalk up to a "blonde moment" for me (or more accurately, a *bald* moment). In all my starting over and screwing around, I had forgotten to reinstall libusb-compat. Duh! I am now to a point that I think we can dig a little deeper. The

Hello Charles, I think we are making progress! I grabbed nut using git, and applied your patch without any problems. Getting to the point that I could run a configure on my RPi - was something else. I found this blog post, which was very helpful (for anyone else that may try it): http://atelier-orchard.blogspot.com/2013/11/raspberry-pixf86-video-fbdev.html It's not in English, but you get

Hi, I'm running Fedora Core 6 and need to monitor a Tripp Lite SMART2200RMXL2U. I've loaded the nut-2.0.3-2.1 RPM. The UPS is connected via the provided USB cable, and that much appears to work: # dmesg | grep -i tripp hiddev96: USB HID v1.10 Device [Tripp Lite TRIPP LITE SMART2200RMXL2U ] on usb-0000:00:1f.4-2 # lspci | grep -i usb 00:1f.4 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801BA/BAM

I have a new SMART1050SLT Tripp Lite UPS that both tripplite and tripplitesu drivers hate. Both simply time out with a "can't find" message. Does anyone know about the SmartPro series?

Ok, so I have made some progress that seems to suggest the initial “fix” I stumbled upon isn’t required. I haven’t yet worked backwards to figure out reasons why our customers have had similar complaints or solve the problem on the CentOS VM yet, but that is on the todo list. I am hoping it ends up just being not enabling the service on startup, but I can’t say that explains away all the symptoms

That worked out just fine. What I am currently running into are conditions where I am getting the following error that I figured I would share. Error: libusb_get_interrupt() returned 0 instead of 8 while sending 3a 4d b2 0d 00 00 00 00 '.M......' Conditions: upsdrvctl start via Init Script at Boottime. If I run the init script after boot, I do not receive this error. Eric Cobb ekcobb
