Looking at 'man blazer' I found out that there is a fourth subdriver - phoenix. Guess what - it works!
First I changed my ups.conf to: > [myups] > driver = blazer_usb > port = /dev/ttyS0 > vendorid = 14f0 > productid = 00c9 > subdriver = phoenix > desc = "Local UPS" That worked! So I added this to 'drivers/blazer_ups.c': > diff -Nur nut-2.6.0/drivers/blazer_usb.c > nut-2.6.0-new/drivers/blazer_usb.c > --- nut-2.6.0/drivers/blazer_usb.c 2010-12-24 14:24:29.000000000 > +0100 > +++ nut-2.6.0-new/drivers/blazer_usb.c 2011-04-14 13:59:17.074896771 > +0200 > @@ -294,6 +294,12 @@ > return NULL; > } > > +static void *phoenix_subdriver(void) > +{ > + subdriver_command = &phoenix_command; > + return NULL; > +} > + > > static usb_device_id_t blazer_usb_id[] = { > { USB_DEVICE(0x05b8, 0x0000), &cypress_subdriver }, /* > Agiler UPS */ > @@ -302,6 +308,7 @@ > { USB_DEVICE(0x0665, 0x5161), &cypress_subdriver }, /* > Belkin F6C1200-UNV */ > { USB_DEVICE(0x06da, 0x0003), &ippon_subdriver }, /* > Mustek Powermust */ > { USB_DEVICE(0x0f03, 0x0001), &cypress_subdriver }, /* > Unitek Alpha 1200Sx */ > + { USB_DEVICE(0x14f0, 0x00c9), &phoenix_subdriver }, /* GE > EP series */ > /* end of list */ > {-1, -1, NULL} > }; Now I don't need to add 'vendorid', 'productid' and 'subdriver' options to ups.conf and it still works! :) Danilo PS: Mind you - I'm no programmer so all this is mostly guesswork... :) On 04/14/2011 11:38 AM, Danilo Godec wrote: > Now I'm trying to get it working with USB (the UPS has both and it's > getting harder to find machines with serial ports) - if it works with > *blazer_ser*, should it also work with *blazer_usb*? > > When I plug the USB in, 'dmesg' shows this: > >> [68527.748033] usb 4-1: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and >> address 3 >> [68527.922036] usb 4-1: New USB device found, idVendor=14f0, >> idProduct=00c9 >> [68527.922048] usb 4-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=1, >> SerialNumber=0 >> [68527.922058] usb 4-1: Product: GE EP series UPS >> [68527.922065] usb 4-1: Manufacturer: GE >> [68527.922217] usb 4-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice >> [68527.939208] generic-usb 0003:14F0:00C9.0002: hiddev0,hidraw0: USB >> HID v1.11 Device [GE GE EP series UPS] on usb-0000:00:1d.2-1/input0 > > and */dev/usb/hiddev0* appears. > > So I tried with this: > > [myups] > driver = blazer_usb > port = /dev/usb/hiddev0 > desc = "Local UPS" > > */usr/lib/ups/driver/blazer_usb -a myups* > Network UPS Tools - Megatec/Q1 protocol USB driver 0.03 (2.6.0) > libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/001/001: Permission denied. > libusb requires write access to USB device nodes. > libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/002/001: Permission denied. > libusb requires write access to USB device nodes. > libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/003/001: Permission denied. > libusb requires write access to USB device nodes. > libusb couldn't open USB device /dev/bus/usb/004/001: Permission denied. > libusb requires write access to USB device nodes. > No supported UPS detected > > and */dev/usb/hiddev0* disappears. > > I added the following to '/etc/udev/rules.d/52-nut-usbups.rules': > > # GE EP series > ATTR{idVendor}=="14f0", ATTR{idProduct}=="00c9", MODE="664", > GROUP="daemon" > > I also edited the 'blazer_usb.c' file and added this: > > { USB_DEVICE(0x14f0, 0x00c9), &krauler_subdriver }, /* GE > EP series */ > > (also tried other subdrivers - cypress, ippon, ...). > > I also manually change permissions on '/dev/bus/usb/*/*' to 666, but > it also didn't help. > > Anything else to try? > > > Danilo > > > > On 04/13/2011 12:39 AM, Danilo Godec wrote: >> The short story - it seems that GE EP series is (somewhat) supported >> by the *blazer_ser* driver (haven't tried the USB connection yet).
