I only have them to keep watching TV and internet when the storms (or something else) causes outages. It is hard to watch TV when the beep is constantly going :) On the other hand, it is also hard to know when the batteries are going to fail without the beep. > > -- >Phil Stracchino >Babylon Communications >ph...@caerllewys.net >p...@co.ordinate.org >Landline: +1.603.293.8485 >Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 > > > ___ > Nut-upsuser mailing list > Nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net > https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser > ___ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser

[Nut-upsuser] CyberPower PR3000LCDRTXL2U and NUT 2.8.0 - mute?
I have a CyberPower PR3000LCDRTXL2U with a BP48V75ART2U expansion chassis, which I am monitoring using NUT 2.8.0 (on Gentoo Linux). TThe UPS appears to be telling me that the batteries need replacement due to age. CyberPower support has confirmed that for me and told me how i should be able to mute the alarm from the front panel until I can replace the batteries, but it doesn't appear to be working. I can send the PR3000LCDRTXL2U a beeper.disable or beeper.mute via upscmd, and upsc dutifully reports ups.beeper.status: disabled, but it keeps beeping. Anyone else with a PR3000LCDRTXL2U have any useful tips? -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 ___ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@alioth-lists.debian.net https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
