Can you start the driver like this: "/sw/bin/newhidups -u root -DDD"
and paste some of the output?
Here you are :-) See below. The mailing list address seems broken ... tha=

Looks strange... I am copying Peter Selinger, who is much more
familiar with this driver than I am. I am sure the mailing list
problem is temporary, so we should probably take this discussion to
the nut-upsdev list at some point later.

Peter, is this at all like the CyberPower unit that you saw? The
usages look like they are all private.

I have only twice seen a 0764/0005 unit. The first was a Cyberpower
900AVR, in a post by Lincoln Turner on 13 Apr 2006 to Nut-upsdev.  The
second was a Cyberpower 1200AVR in a post by Doug Reynolds on 27 Jul
2006.
This device announces itself as a "RS232 USB BRIDGE", so it is highly
unlikely that it is a HID device. It looks like a serial-over-USB
protocol. Therefore, the newhidups driver does not support it.

Doug Reynolds reported that he got this to work with a modified
version of the cpsups driver (presumably serial!). His modifications
are contained in the 27 Jul 2006 post.
That is the same trouble I ran into with newhidups & the cyberpower ups. I did get it working with the modified driver, but I am having trouble with shutdown cmds and those kind of things. I am planning on debugging it further to get it working well. once I come up with the ups commands, making a USB driver wouldn't be to hard.
