Hi all

I was wondering if one of you kind gentlemen (or ladies) would assist me in finding the data string required to tell my ups to turn on and off. No more no less :)

I guess it would be the actual string of an instant command sent down the rs232 port to the ups.

I have no programming experience and have done a list search to no avail. Sorry to trouble you with this.

I have a lan to rs232 device called a Global Cache gc-100 which can send a data string out the rs232 port (commonly used for home automation). I know how to address the gc and get to the point of sending an ascii command out the port (or raw hex code).

I dont need to handshake/communicate with the ups, all I need to do is to turn the load or output on and off so that the thing isnt chewing power when I'm away. Its a rather big 6kva in a hard to get to location in my recording studio.

Rather than trying to install nut and getting into deep water it would be much simpler if someone could extract the string required from the upscode2 driver with the correct syntax to instantly control the ups. Or point me in the right direction. Is there a list of raw strings and their corresponding commands available for the code 2 driver?

My ups:
Powerware 9110 6kva with rs232 port

Best Regards
Ben Chase
