Hello Jim,

Thank you for your feedback, 



[Jim]: did you have a chance to test those devices with current NUT master 
branch from Github (some time last year, preferably after 2.8.0 release in 
April)?

[Alexander]: 

Now we don't have UPS samples on hands, we will ask the manufacturer to try 
testing NUT 2.8.0.

Previously, the manufacturer tested this UPS on version 2.6.5-6 NUT for Windows.
Could you suggest the correct link to download NUT v2.8.0 for Windows?



Best regards

Subject: Re: [Nut-upsdev] Prolink UPS NUT driver

 

Hello all,

 

  I really hope somebody picks up this bounty :)

 

  Going forward, however, nutdrv_qx driver should be evolved via new subdrivers 
(and used) rather than older Qx drivers like blazer.

 

@Alexander : did you have a chance to test those devices with current NUT 
master branch from Github (some time last year, preferably after 2.8.0 release 
in April)?

 

  If tests were done earlier with packaged NUT version, I suppose it would be 
2.7.4 or older. If they used whatever CentOS 6 packaged, it could be even more 
antique (2.6.5?). As a community, we can only support and patch current NUT 
codebase, not directly old releases, but it is mostly evolution so what worked 
years before should not be worse now :)

 

  I *guess* current NUT might just build on CentOS 6, but CI farm regularly 
only tests CentOS 7 as an example old platform (and recently Solaris 8 
buildability was revived), so there may be some chizeling needed or not for 
builds there.

Hello NUT developers,

Happy New Year!
We sent a similar request to the mailing list earlier in 2022, hope somebody 
can be interested now and help us with the issue described below.  
Of course, we are ready to reward for such help, if you have the opportunity to 
solve the problem, please let us know the price of the solution. Feel free to 
email us directly at  <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected].

 

The manufacturer Prolink has an 650VA UPS model. To supply this UPS to the 
customer, we should first ensure the compatibility of this UPS model with the 
NUT monitoring system. 
The customer’s NUT monitoring system works on CentOS 6. 

At the moment, information has been received from the manufacturer about NUT 
monitoring support, but only partially support (not all necessary data can be 
obtained from this UPS).

Below is a list of data that needs to be obtained from 650VA UPS from Prolink 
using NUT. Commands that according to Prolink are currently not supported are 
indicated below:
1)     UPS status (ups.status)  --》OK

2)     Battery charge level (battery.charge)--- >> Only support battery voltage.

3)     Expected battery life (battery.runtime)---》not support

4)     Input line parameters (input.voltage)---》OK

5)     UPS model (ups.model)- 》OK

6)     Current UPS load (ups. load)- 》OK

7)     The UPS shall transmit to the NUT driver the resulting Runtime value 
calculated from UPS controller side (without calculation from the driver side)- 
》not support

 

Prolink claims that to fully support NUT, the NUT driver “blaser_usb” for 650VA 
UPS needs to be improved, so we are asking you for help.

1. Please clarify whether it is technically possible to modify the existing 
driver for the 650VA Prolink UPS and provide the ability to transfer all data 
from this UPS to NUT in accordance with the list above?

2. In what time frame is it possible to modify the driver?

3. How much does it cost to upgrade the driver?

4. What information and materials do you need to improve the driver for the 
Apex800, besides the protocol from Prolink? We are ready to provide and receive 
everything needed from the manufacturer.
