Yeah, existing packages and libraries don’t work for me, introduce overhead and 
require fiddling well beyond the capabilities of a standard user.

I’d like a native win64 app. 

Anyway, thanks for your help

Oggetto: Re: [Nut-upsuser] Info for decoding report from UPS

 

So, do you plan to write some new program for that UPS instead of trying to use 
NUT? (Note there are also regular Windows builds on CI - with some caveats so 
far).

 

I'm commuting now so can't find links easily, but can suggest you to peruse the 
issue/PR tracker, there's a discussion about an SMS Brazil device with links to 
PoC Python "driver" that's relatively straightforward. Or read up NUT drivers, 
nutdrv_qx, blazer, and some others for megatec protocol dialects. NUT website 
should have a protocol library with formal definitions for some of those.

 

But really, not reinventing the wheel (at least, checking if ours does roll) 
might be the faster option ;)

Thanks. I forgot to mention I am developing in c# for Windows.

Porting or using existing ports seems like an effort with swinging results.

My prototype is working, at least as proof of concept. I’d just like some 
directions to decode the raw reports.

 

Thanks for your help.

Seems like recent work on nutdrv_qx subdriver armac (merged to master last 
month) could handle it, or some older QX drivers like richcomm if it is a 
different brew of a loosely similar product. 

 

Try following 
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/wiki/Building-NUT-for-in%E2%80%90place-upgrades-or-non%E2%80%90disruptive-tests
 for example, to check if it would "just work" now?

Hi, everybody, I just subscribed, though I’ve been lurking around for some 
time. 

I searched for my question in the archive, but I wasn’t able to find an answer.

Sorry if this question has been asked before.

I am in the process of writing an interfacing software.

After some trial and error, I was able to query the UPS and receive an answer, 
though I am not sure how to decode the report.

The UPS is generic, non branded with VID/PID 0925/1234.

The report is 6 bytes long and raw data look like “0x01 0x04 0x02 0xDE 0xFE 
0xFF”. (The fifth byte changes now and then).

Any help pointing me to the right decoding table would be much appreciated.

 

Cheers
