Hi Kjell,

Thanks for the quick responce.

I have removed the baud_rate. My bcmxcp_usb is located in /opt/bin. (structure of the QNAP device). The QNAP does not have a root user but an admin user so I ran the command with -u admin.

Running the command I got the same output i think.

======================================================
[/opt/bin] # bcmxcp_usb -DD -a PowerWare -u admin
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.21 (2.4.1)
USB communication subdriver 0.17
debug level is '2'
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (data): got 33 bytes instead of 116!!!

Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): COMMAND: 31

RECONNECT USB DEVICE

Can't set POWERWARE USB configuration
Unable to find POWERWARE UPS device on USB bus

Things to try:

- Connect UPS device to USB bus

- Run this driver as another user (upsdrvctl -u or 'user=...' in ups.conf).
  See upsdrvctl(8) and ups.conf(5).

Fatal error: unusable configuration
CLOSING
======================================================

Hopefully this might still be useful.

Thanks for you help,
Greg

Hi everyone,

Hi Greg,

Been searching like crazy to find an answer to this. I have even read some
of the source code but cannot figure this one out.

I have installed nut 2.4.1 on my QNAP 409 Pro. (command: ipkg install nut)
I have configured the ups.conf, upsd.conf and upsd.users.

When i run "upsdrvctl start" I get the following error messages and output.

====================================================================
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.1
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.21 (2.4.1)
USB communication subdriver 0.17
Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (data): got 33 bytes instead of
116!!!

Communications with UPS lost: Receive error (Request command): COMMAND: 31

This looks like a access rights problem.

Can you try the following. Start the driver in debug mode like this.

/path/to/bcmxcp_usb -DD -a PowerWare -u root

Normal the path is /lib/nut but check where the bcmxcp_usb is located.
This should spit out some debug info. Stop it by hitting ctrl-c.

Send me (and the list) the output.
8<-------------------------snip--------------------------------
My ups.conf looks like this

user=admin

[PowerWare]

driver = bcmxcp_usb

port = auto

desc = "PowerWare 5115 UPS"

#pollinterval=1

baud_rate = 9600
You can remove the baud_rate. It is only for the serial part of the driver.
