Hello...

I have a PowerWare 9120 attached via USB to my Debian system.


My ups.conf looks like this:
[ups1]
        driver = bcmxcp_usb
        port = auto
        desc = "PowerWare 9120"




When testing the driver with "upsdrvctl -u root start" I get:
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.4
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.0.4)
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): BLOCK: 0, 
COMMAND: 31!
Communications with UPS lost: checksum error!
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): BLOCK: cb, 
COMMAND: 31!
Model = PW9120 3000VA
Firmware = 02.60
Shutdown delay =  120 seconds
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): BLOCK: fa, 
COMMAND: 3c!
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): BLOCK: 81, 
COMMAND: 33!



When looking at the combatability chart at 
http://www.networkupstools.org/compat/stable.html it
seems the PW9120 is supported by the bcmxcp driver and not bcmxcp_usb. I have 
however found
suggestions that bcmxcp_usb supports the 9120:

I have a SNMP card in the 9120, but my understanding is that the NUT 
SNMP-driver does not allow the
UPS to be shut down. This is why I am now turning to USB.


Any ideas as to how I can get my setup running?


Thank you,
Tobias Balle-Petersen
