Looking at your second mail you run the upsdrvctl with debug. This would not run the driver with debug. You need to run it like. /path/to/driver/megatec -DD -a patriot You have to kill this with ctrl-c but you get debug info from the driver. Check the manual for megatec, there is some flags you may alter, like DTR and RTS in the ups.conf. Also the sendpace can be altered, this is the wait between characters. (default 100mS) Run the driver in debug mode. Alter the DTR RTS value in the config and run it again. Se if you have any responce from the Q1 command. If you get response alter the sendpace for relyable respons. As it is a text protocol you may try minicom or any terminal program and send Q1/r (Q1 followed by return) and check if you get any responce. ref: http://eu1.networkupstools.org/protocols/megatec.html Regards /Kjell _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
