Greetings:
I've been following through the instructions on how to connect an APC
BackUPS 650 ES to USB, and have it monitored with NUT...
I know my system can SEE the UPS, as DMESG shows this:
hiddev96: USB HID v1.10 Device [APC Back-UPS ES 650 FW:818.w1.D USB FW:w1]
on usb-0000:00:04.2-1
usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver
I can see an entry in /dev/usb called hiddev0
I have updated my ups.conf file as follows:
[apc]
driver = newhidups
port = /dev/usb/hiddev0
desc = "APC Back-UPS ES 650"
Note, that port used to be set to auto, but in deperation, I hardcoded it..
I'm running kernel version 2.6.17.3, and have libusb-0.1.so.4.4.0
libraries installed.
I cannot see anything in /proc/bus/usb.
When I try to run newhidups, I get:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/nut-2.0.4# ./drivers/newhidups -a apc -u root
/dev/usb/hiddev0
Network UPS Tools: New USB/HID UPS driver 0.28 (2.0.4)
No matching USB/HID UPS found
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/nut-2.0.4# ./drivers/newhidups -a apc -u root
Network UPS Tools: New USB/HID UPS driver 0.28 (2.0.4)
No matching USB/HID UPS found
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/nut-2.0.4#
Can anyone suggest a course of action I can take?..
Thanks kindly,
Richard.
