Hi Mark, I have a couple Mitsubishi 2033C UPSes that I badly want data from.

You may also be interested in looking at this tracker (preliminary effort, before I asked Julius to merge this with gamatronic): https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=302733&group_id=30602&atid=411544 cheers, Arnaud -- Linux / Unix / Opensource Engineering Expert - Eaton - http://opensource.eaton.com Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - http://www.networkupstools.org Debian Developer - http://www.debian.org Free Software Developer - http://arnaud.quette.fr
