Hello, I'm new to the list, new to NUT, but not new to Unix-likes. I could use some help getting NUT to talk to my Tripp Lite G1000U. Searching Google for "Tripp Lite G1000U" returns exactly two hits at this writing, so that may not be a good sign. ;-) It may just be rebranded for sale through this source (Costco).
Externally, the G1000U looks much like the SMART1000LCD: an amber LCD, jacks for coax and telephone, four protected receptacles and four non-protected, and a USB-only interface. Internally, it's product 2007, vendor 09ae. I am running FreeBSD 6.4 with a stock kernel (and so uhid is enabled) and I installed the FreeBSD port of NUT (nut-2.2.2) today with the following options set: [ ] SERIAL SERIAL support [X] USB USB support [X] SNMP SNMP support [X] NEON NEON XML/HTTP support [ ] HAL HAL support [X] IPV6 IPV6 support [ ] DEVEL Install header files [X] CGI Web CGI interface I read Charles Sprickman's helpful post 'Some FreeBSD tips': http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsuser/2007-March/002513.html ... but I wasn't able to figure out if uhid should be disabled or not for my unit. I am in the process of compiling a kernel without uhid so that I can try the tripplite_usb driver, but I wanted to also post here because of the lack of G1000U information indexed by Google. Here's how I tried the driver: $ sudo /usr/local/libexec/nut/usbhid-ups -a tripplite-g1000u -u root -DDD Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2) debug level is '3' upsdrv_initups... No appropriate HID device found No matching HID UPS found Other information as follows: Kernel message on attachment: kernel: uhid0: Tripp Lite TRIPP LITE UPS, rev 1.10/0.10, addr 2, iclass 3/0 $ sudo usbdevs -d -v Controller /dev/usb0: addr 1: full speed, self powered, config 1, UHCI root hub(0x0000), VIA(0x0000), rev 1.00 uhub0 port 1 addr 2: low speed, power 100 mA, config 1, TRIPP LITE UPS(0x2007), Tripp Lite(0x09ae), rev 0.10 uhid0 [snip] $ nocomment ups.conf [tripplite-g1000u] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto desc = "primary UPS" $ nocomment upsd.conf ACL all 0.0.0.0/0 ACL localhost 127.0.0.1/32 ACL lan [redacted] ACCEPT localhost lan REJECT all Any help appreciated, especially if I'm missing something obvious in the configs. If the G1000U is new to the project, I'm more than willing to play guinea pig. And thanks for the project generally - I was pleased to find something this sophisticated, and hope to give back in some way.
