Hi: I bought a Belkin Active Battery Backup UPS too.
I installed included WinPower software too, with a partial success: The agent starts and does his work, this is, it watches in background and starts a shutdown when power fails for ten minutes. But the GUI fails to start because different Java problems. And without this Java interface, any action the agent will do can't be monitored, and setup is not possible. I do not like WinPower. Nut is a best option. but I cannot make it working with nut with any drivers (belkin, belkinunv, usbhid-ups, megatec... well, I tried most of them without any success). Like davisc in another post, I've tried version 2.0.5 and 2.2.0 compiled in an updated Gentoo Linux system. The ouput of "usbhid-ups -DDDD -a belkin -u root -x explore -x vendorid=0665 -x productid=5161" is like davisc's one, or very closed. Like him, /dev/hiddev0 dissapears after run it, too. Output follows: [504] # /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -DDDD -a belkin -u root -x explore -x vendorid=0665 -x productid=5161 > ejecucion.txt debug level is '4' Checking device (03F0/1016) (010/003) - VendorID: 03f0 - ProductID: 1016 - Manufacturer: unknown - Product: unknown - Serial Number: unknown - Bus: 010 Trying to match device Device does not match - skipping Checking device (0000/0000) (010/001) - VendorID: 0000 - ProductID: 0000 - Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.22-kal uhci_hcd - Product: UHCI Host Controller - Serial Number: 0000:00:0b.1 - Bus: 010 Trying to match device Device does not match - skipping Checking device (0665/5161) (008/009) - VendorID: 0665 - ProductID: 5161 - Manufacturer: Cypress Semiconductor - Product: USB to Serial - Serial Number: unknown - Bus: 008 Trying to match device Device matches HID descriptor, method 1: (9 bytes) => 09 21 00 01 00 01 22 1b 00 i=0, extra[i]=09, extra[i+1]=21 HID descriptor, method 2: (9 bytes) => 09 21 00 01 00 01 22 1b 00 HID descriptor retrieved (Reportlen = 27) Report descriptor retrieved (Reportlen = 27) Found HID device Report Descriptor size = 27 Report Descriptor: (27 bytes) => 06 00 ff 09 01 a1 01 09 02 15 00 26 ff 00 75 08 95 08 81 82 09 02 95 08 91 82 c0 Detected a UPS: Cypress Semiconductor/USB to Serial Using subdriver: EXPLORE HID 0.1 parsing ff000001 parsing ff000002 Path depth = 2 0: Usage(ff000001) 1: Usage(ff000002) Can't find object ff000001.ff000002 Path: ff000001.ff000002, Type: Input, ReportID: 0x00, Offset: 0, Size: 8 parsing ff000001 parsing ff000002 Path depth = 2 0: Usage(ff000001) 1: Usage(ff000002) Can't find object ff000001.ff000002 Path: ff000001.ff000002, Type: Output, ReportID: 0x00, Offset: 0, Size: 8 upsdrv_updateinfo... dstate_init: sock /var/lib/nut/usbhid-ups-belkin open on fd 5 upsdrv_updateinfo...
