Re: [Nut-upsuser] APC Modbus support is finally here!
Great! Thanks for the info, and hope the driver author can address the nits (forwarding now...)

Hi: I got a new APC SRT3000XL and tested the new driver "apc_modbus". the ups works fine with nut+apcupsd. the new driver "apc_modbus" has result below: 1. upsrw can write the variable "battery.date". but the new value will only show after restarting apc_modbus. and in my case the written data will shift one day. eg the command "upsrw -s battery.date=2023-09-13" will return "2023-09-12" later. 2. the upscmd power-off related commands (like load.*, outlet.*, shutdown.*) can not work. so it can not shutdown the ups. (I think this is the most important feature which needs to be fixed) 3. upscmd command works: beeper.mute, bypass.start, bypass.stop, test.battery.start, test.battery.stop, test.panel.start 4. I can't attach any load so I can not test calibrate.start. but I found the new driver seems missing an import item which apcupsd have: "ups.test.result" below are some raw data: > data read from nut+apcupsd (for reference): battery.charge: 99.0 battery.charge.low: 5 battery.date: 2023-11-21 battery.runtime: 57000.0 battery.runtime.low: 180 battery.voltage: 109.0 device.mfr: APC device.model: Smart-UPS SRT3000 device.serial: AS2032296523 device.type: ups driver.debug: 0 driver.flag.allow_killpower: 0 driver.name: apcupsd-ups driver.parameter.pollinterval: 10 driver.parameter.port: localhost driver.parameter.synchronous: auto driver.state: quiet driver.version: 2.8.1 driver.version.internal: 0.71 input.frequency: 60.0 input.voltage: 224.7 output.current: 0.00 output.frequency: 60.0 output.voltage: 207.6 output.voltage.nominal: 208 power.percent: 0.0 ups.date: 2023-11-22 ups.delay.shutdown: 0 ups.delay.start: 0 ups.firmware: UPS 15.5 ups.firmware.aux: 00.5 ups.id: APC UPS ups.load: 0.0 ups.mfr: APC ups.mfr.date: 2020-08-10 ups.model: Smart-UPS SRT3000 ups.power.nominal: 3000 ups.realpower.nominal: 2700.0 ups.serial: AS2032296523 ups.status: OL ups.temperature: 27.0 ups.test.result: OK ups.time: 17:24:25 > data read from new driver "apc_modbus" battery.charge: 99.00 battery.date: 2023-11-21 battery.date.maintenance: 2028-05-21 battery.runtime: 57425 battery.temperature: 29.00 battery.voltage: 108.69 device.mfr: American Power Conversion device.model: Smart-UPS SRT3000 device.serial: AS2032296523 device.type: ups driver.debug: 0 driver.flag.allow_killpower: 0 driver.name: apc_modbus driver.parameter.pollinterval: 10 driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0 driver.parameter.synchronous: yes driver.state: quiet driver.version: 2.8.1 driver.version.internal: 0.10 experimental.output.energy: 7 input.transfer.high: 220 input.transfer.low: 184 input.transfer.reason: TestEnded input.voltage: 224.77 outlet.group.0.delay.reboot: 8 outlet.group.0.delay.shutdown: 0 outlet.group.0.delay.start: 0 outlet.group.0.name: Unswitched Group outlet.group.1.delay.reboot: 8 outlet.group.1.delay.shutdown: 90 outlet.group.1.delay.start: 0 outlet.group.1.name: Outlet Group 1 outlet.group.2.delay.reboot: 8 outlet.group.2.delay.shutdown: 90 outlet.group.2.delay.start: 0 outlet.group.2.name: Outlet Group 2 outlet.group.3.delay.reboot: 8 outlet.group.3.delay.shutdown: 90 outlet.group.3.delay.start: 0 outlet.group.3.name: Outlet Group 3 outlet.group.count: 2 output.current: 0.00 output.frequency: 60.00 output.voltage: 207.62 ups.delay.reboot: 8 ups.delay.shutdown: 0 ups.delay.start: 0 ups.efficiency: LoadTooLow ups.firmware: UPS 15.5 ups.id: APC UPS ups.load: 0.00 ups.mfr: American Power Conversion ups.mfr.date: 2020-08-10 ups.model: Smart-UPS SRT3000 ups.power: 0.00 ups.power.nominal: 3000 ups.realpower: 0.00 ups.realpower.nominal: 2700 ups.serial: AS2032296523 ups.status: OL ups.timer.reboot: -1 ups.timer.shutdown: -1 ups.timer.start: -1 >upsrw -l myups [battery.date] Battery change date Type: NUMBER Value: 2023-11-21 [driver.debug] Current debug verbosity level of the driver program Type: NUMBER Value: 0 [driver.flag.allow_killpower] Safety flip-switch to allow the driver daemon to send UPS shutdown command (accessible via driver.killpower) Type: NUMBER Value: 0 [input.transfer.high] High voltage transfer point (V) Type: NUMBER Value: 220 [input.transfer.low] Low voltage transfer point (V) Type: NUMBER Value: 184 [outlet.group.0.delay.reboot] Description unavailable Type: NUMBER Value: 8 [outlet.group.0.delay.shutdown] Description unavailable Type: NUMBER Value: 0 [outlet.group.0.delay.start] Description unavailable Type: NUMBER Value: 0 [outlet.group.0.name] Description unavailable Type: STRING Maximum length: 16 Value: Unswitched Group [outlet.group.1.delay.reboot] Description unavailable Type: NUMBER Value: 8 [outlet.
