Hello,
I have Ellipse ASR 1500 UPS and now I'm trying to monutor it with
NUT from FreeBSD. It seems that there are some problems with this UPS:
===================================
ugen0: MGE UPS SYSTEMS ELLIPSE, rev 1.10/42.41, addr 2
> usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x0000),
NEC(0x0000), rev 1.00
port 1 powered
port 2 powered
port 3 powered
Controller /dev/usb1:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, OHCI root hub(0x0000),
NEC(0x0000), rev 1.00
port 1 powered
port 2 powered
Controller /dev/usb2:
addr 1: high speed, self powered, config 1, EHCI root hub(0x0000),
NEC(0x0000), rev 1.00
port 1 powered
port 2 powered
port 3 powered
port 4 powered
port 5 powered
Controller /dev/usb3:
addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000),
Intel(0x0000), rev 1.00
port 1 addr 2: low speed, power 20 mA, config 1, ELLIPSE(0xffff), MGE UPS
SYSTEMS(0x0463), rev 42.41
port 2 powered

Network UPS Tools: 0.28 USB communication driver 0.28 - core 0.30 (2.0.5)

driver = newhidups
port = auto
desc = "MGE Pulsar Ellipse 1500"
===================================
As you can see, newhidups can't match this device. After looking
into mge-hid.c, it seems that ProductID of 0xFFFF is something that this
driver doesn't like:
=======================
case 0x0001:
case 0xffff:
return 1; /* accept known UPSs */
======================
Where is the problem? In UPS? In FreeBSD? Any ideas? Included
monitoring SW works fine on WinXP.
