Hi Vitor, please, keep the list cc'ed since other might interested in (either the solution, or their 2 cents to the discussion). Moreover, knowing that I'm not an author of the megatec / blazer drivers, things might be obvious to these guys and not to me...

I've never played with this protocol, but it seems that you will have to use the various parameters to finalise its setup: mfr, model and battvolts in ups.conf first try blazer since iirc, it's more smart. > - when fully charged (ie online for some time), does > battery.charge > reaches 100 % ? otherwise, we'll have to use the battvolts > parameter. > This is hard to tell.
