Hi Charles,

I am using the same configs as I have in Linux Mint. What do I need to change here?

ups.conf
[defender]
    driver = blazer_usb
    port = auto
    pollinterval = 5
    desc = "PowerShield Defender 650"
upsd
    default.battery.voltage.high = 13.70
    default.battery.voltage.low = 10.40

upsd.users
[local_mon]
        password = ********
        allowfrom = localhost
        actions = set
        actions = fsd
        instcmds = all
        upsmon master

upsmon.conf
MONITOR    defender@localhost 1 local_mon *********** master

The MONITOR line in upsmon.conf needs to match a NUT user in upsd.users.

Looks like you are using this as a master system (UPS is directly connected, and upsmon 
shuts down that system), so the appropriate NUT user needs "upsmon master" in 
upsd.users.

Note that the NUT users listed in upsd.users do not need to correspond to actual system 
users - think of them more as roles. If you add a slave system that connects over the 
network, you might not want it to be able to shut down the master, so you would use a 
different NUT username with "upsmon slave" privileges.
