Ok, I 've done some more testing.
I did comment out the upsmon entry in /etc/default/nut
Then loaded the driver like:
/lib/nut/genericups -x upstype=7 /dev/ttyS0
It loaded and according syslog:
Nov 11 10:19:47 radius1 genericups[8469]: Startup successful
However when I tried:
radius1:/etc/nut# upsc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Error: Connection failure: Connection refused
radius1:/etc/nut#
I've done this for ttyS0 & ttyS1 (there are no more, 2 results in an error at fire up)
I also changed the permissions on ttyS1 like
radius1:/etc/nut# ls -al /dev/ttyS0
crw-rw---- 1 root nut 4, 64 2005-02-26 07:39 /dev/ttyS0
radius1:/etc/nut#
Same problem.
The only things left here are.
1. There is a problem with the serial cable. (I tried 2 of them)
How will I know if the cable that came with the UPS is the right one?
2. That thing just won't ever work for linux.
The new series of MGE are Ellipse ASR I hope someone can confirm these things work as they should
with NUT running on debian stable.
Many tnx
Yves
Woops forget it!
I've noticed a typo in /etc/default/nut
# start upsd
START_UPSD=yed (instead of yes!)
Ok, now I got
radius1:/etc/default# upsc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
driver.name: genericups
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0
driver.parameter.upstype: 7
driver.version: 2.0.1
driver.version.internal: 1.30
ups.mfr: CyberPower
ups.model: Power99
ups.status: OL
We move on...
