I'm having some issues with ttyS0 (COM1) on my mail server. I'm trying
to get it to work with NUT, but I cannot communicate through
the serial
port.
Assuming the port works (I usually test with a modem), APC UPS's need a
special cable. There are instructions on NUT's and apcupsd's website
(iirc). The smart UPS's also might need a special command sent to them
before they will talk to you. Other UPS's may or may not be similar.
Hi Nathan,
As I said in the initial post, I tested it with a modem booting from a
floppy, and it tested fine, so the serial port isn't faulty
(thankfully!).
It's actually a Sola UPS, and I had it working previously with NUT on my
old mail server which has now been retired.
The Q1 command is what I normally need to type in Minicom to get it to
respond, but this isn't working.
Thanks for the response though.
Pete
