Hi,
I have had a long standing problem with NUT talking to 110V MGE UPSs on
FreeBSD, I was recently investigating again and noticed that upsd seems
overly noisy, eg..

May  5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:36 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:39 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:46 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:46 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:47 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:47 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:47 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:47 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale
May  5 03:50:47 egbert upsd[96662]: Data for UPS [ups1] is stale - check driver
May  5 03:50:50 egbert upsd[96662]: UPS [ups1] data is no longer stale

ie 5 messages per second! MAXAGE is 15 seconds, IMO it should be at _least_ 
that time between complaints of staleness..

Am I misunderstanding what MAXAGE does?
