I wanted to mention that some of Cyberpower UPS use a USB to Serial
bridge; I am not sure that the GS upses implement this method or not.
If it has a serial port, try using the new 'powerpanel' driver (which I
believe is in the new 2.0.5-pre2 release, and in the trunk).
Dear Gary,
NUT 2.0.3 is an ancient version. CPS support was added to newhidups
much later.

P.S. please keep list traffic on the mailing list. Thanks!

You wrote the following on the NUT-upsuser mailing list
To check if your device's USB interface is supported, try the
newhidups driver. You can run this driver (at first) as
drivers/newhidups -DD -u root auto
If the device is not (yet) supported, then please find out the vendor
id and product id of the device; they should be in the debug output
from the driver (something like abcd/0123), or you can see them with
'lsusb' or similar.

I have the same Geek Squad UPS. Cyber Power Systems support told me to
use newhidups driver but the following printout from newhidups seems to
say the UPS is not supported. The only CPS UPS shown under newhidups is
the 685AVR. I have e-mailed CPS support to see if the 685AVR driver
will work with the GS 1285U. But I do not know how to proceed.
