Ok. I now have everything in place and I get an email when the temp sensor opens
Question - what do I set so the system doesn't shut down when the sensor stays open? Can I just set SHUTDOWNCMD "" ? Or is there a cleaner way thx -----Original Message----- From: Charles Lepple [mailto:clep...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2011 7:18 AM To: James Smith Cc: 'nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org' Subject: Re: [Nut-upsuser] Using NUT to detect a normally closed circuit opening On Jun 20, 2011, at 2:09 PM, James Smith wrote: > I have a temperature sensor (normally closed) that opens when it > reaches a pre-defined temp. what I am trying to do is use NUT to look > for the circuit opening and trigger an action (email or whatever).

The OL and OB states mentioned in the genericups man page will trigger the first two notifications listed here: http://www.networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsmon.html#_notify_events _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
