Hello, I encountered a problem with my APC Smart-UPS 750, connected via USB, using newhidups. Without any reason, nut/upsmon shut down my PC:
>>> Oct 13 12:57:08 echo kernel: usb 2-9.1.1: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd newhidups rqt 161 rq 1 len 8 ret -71 Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: UPS [EMAIL PROTECTED] on battery Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: UPS [EMAIL PROTECTED] battery is low Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: UPS [EMAIL PROTECTED] battery needs to be replaced Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsd[5056]: Client [EMAIL PROTECTED] set FSD on UPS [smart750] Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: Executing automatic power-fail shutdown Oct 13 12:57:12 echo upsmon[5060]: Auto logout and shutdown proceeding Oct 13 12:57:17 echo upsd[5056]: Host 127.0.0.1 disconnected (read failure) Oct 13 12:57:17 echo shutdown[14003]: shutting down for system halt Oct 13 12:57:17 echo init: Switching to runlevel: 0 >>> The UPS wasn't on battery, the battery wasn't low either, nor needing to be replaced, it's not even a year old. (I was in the same room at that time and the UPS didn't beep a single time). It's connected via two in-line-USB hubs, maybe that could be a reason? >>> hub 2-9:1.0: USB hub found hub 2-9:1.0: 4 ports detected usb 2-9.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5 hub 2-9.1:1.0: USB hub found hub 2-9.1:1.0: 4 ports detected usb 2-9.1.1: new low speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6 hiddev96: USB HID v1.10 Device [American Power Conversion Smart-UPS 750 FW:651.12.I USB FW:4.2] on usb-0000:00:02.1-9.1.1 >>> Config: >>> echo:/etc/nut# cat ups.conf [smart750] driver = newhidups port = /dev/usb/hiddev0 >>> upsc Output: >>> echo:~# upsc [EMAIL PROTECTED] battery.charge: 100 battery.charge.low: 10 battery.charge.warning: 50 battery.mfr.date: 2005/11/25 battery.runtime: 900 battery.runtime.low: 120 battery.temperature: 33 battery.type: PbAc battery.voltage: 27.3 battery.voltage.nominal: 24.0 driver.name: newhidups driver.parameter.port: /dev/usb/hiddev0 driver.version: 2.0.4 driver.version.data: APC/CyberPower HID 0.9 driver.version.internal: 0.28 input.voltage: 228.9 output.voltage: 227.5 output.voltage.target.line: 230.0 ups.beeper.status: enabled ups.delay.shutdown: -1 ups.firmware: 651.12.I ups.firmware.aux: 4.2 ups.load: 53.3 ups.mfr: American Power Conversion ups.mfr.date: 2005/11/25 ups.model: Smart-UPS 750 ups.serial: QS0548341065 ups.status: OL ups.test.result: No test initiated >>> That machine's running Linux Kernel version 2.6.15, on a Gigabyte NForce4 M/B, A64 X2 3800+. Any ideas? I thought of connecting it with a serial cable, maybe that's more stable? Thank you, Jan
