Hi,
recently I got a GE EP6000R UPS. At first I feared it's not supported at
all, but after digging in I found out that it's supported by the
'blazer' driver.
The UPS has both RS232 and USB connection. To use the RS232 connection,
I had to use the 'cablepower = none' as the UPS is using only RX, TX and
GND pins.
So my 'usp.conf' was a bit like that:
> [myups]
> driver = blazer_ser
> port = /dev/ttyS0
> cablepower = none
> desc = "Local UPS"
To use the USB connection required a bit more work, but I eventually
found out what it takes:
> [myups]
> driver = blazer_usb
> port = /dev/ttyS0 # probably irrelevant
> vendorid = 14f0
> productid = 00c9
> subdriver = phoenix
> desc = "Local UPS"
I also made a patch so I don't need to define 'vendorid', 'productid'
and 'subdriver' in config, but since I'm not a programmer, the patch is
mostly 'guesswork'. The patch is against nut-2.6.0 release.
I hope this list accepts attachments...
Regards, Danilo
