Hi Spike,

sorry for the lag in answering, I was collecting the needed information.

I have a eaton 1500 that connects to an Ubuntu Xenial box via USB. The UPS

this is a workaround implemented to avoid, under some specific conditions,
a freeze of the USB communication.
As far as I've been told, when there is an actual SW communication (such as
with NUT) with requests and replies in the 5mn timeframe, this should not
occur.

Could you please:
- confirm back that there is indeed a SW communication setup (NUT or UPower
for example),
- send me back the upsc output for this unit, including the serial number
and firmware revision

thanks and regards,
Arno
