Citeren Adam Sádovský <[email protected]>:

have some of you tried sweex UPS 1500VA
(http://www.sweex.com/en/assortiment/power-security/power-protection/PP220).
It is not listed in hardware compatibility list.

Which one? Sweex is (in)famous for changing the internals of their devices, without changing the part numbers.

As I can see, sweex can be problematic with drivers, but it is not possible to change this UPS to other model now.

Unless it works with the 'blazer_usb' driver, you're most likely out of luck.

It is connected by USB and lsusb says only:
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0665:5161 Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial

The above is just a generic USB to serial converter. What we really need is the underlying serial protocol that is used. I very much doubt that Sweex will be able/willing to tell which is used. You could try to reverse engineer the protocol by snooping the communication on the USB port between the (bundled) Windows driver and the UPS. Search the archives for tips on how to do this.

Best regards, Arjen

PS In the end it is probably a lot easier to ditch this device and buy something that is supported out of the box.
