Jim, would an upgrade to the install on my rpi4b running a medium
sized 80+ yo lathe give me better control over a:
device.mfr: CPS
device.model: CP625HGa
device.type: ups
driver.name: usbhid-ups
driver.parameter.offdelay: 120
where that offdelay seems hard coded. The 625WA rating could run that
pi for t least an hour, but it chops it off in 2 minutes.
currently running 2.7.4 on raspios buster.

I think nut only works with lathes made after 1969 :-)

But seriously, a lot has been fixed/added since 2.7.4.

nut-2.7.4 on the pi looks like it must have been from a gzip, so its not precious.

So how about the rest of a git clone commandline for the latest? My pi can build it and keep it up to date then as it has a complete build system on it, builds its own pre-emt-realtime kernels AND linuxcnc.

As I understand it, offdelay is about the time delta from telling the
ups to shut down until it kills power, so the OS can sync disks.  I have
a 90s UPS with a 10s delay and nut does not try to shut down until I get
a lowbattery indication, so I get 30 minutes of runtime with graceful
stop, vs maybe 40-something without nut to empty/hard-off.

Is your UPS shutting down without nut telling it to?
