Hi,
We have a several AP9612TH environmental cards (they have 2 probe
connectors) inserted into our APC UPS devices which monitor temperature
and humidity. The apcsmart nut module knows how to query the
ambient.temperature and ambient.humidity using the 't' and 'h' commands
of the UPS (refer to apcsmart.h). The results of the 't' and 'h'
commands are from probe 1.
If you submit via the serial port the commands 'T' and 'H' you can
obtain temperature and humidity readings that contains the results of
both probes. The results are comma seperated:
ambient.temperature.dual: 28.70,20.82
I have created a patch that supports the new 'T' and 'H' commands and
its resulting output using upsc is shown above. The patch does not
change the behavior of the origina ambient.temperature reading, it
simply adds a new ambient.temperature.dual reading (this applies to both
temperature and humidity):
