In order to work support for Vendor ID 10af probably needs to be removed from the Belkin HID driver which tries to support the LiebertPSP at the moment. I've attached my efforts thus far. Please remember, I'm not a programmer - so please feel free to point out my glaring mistakes. A lot of the new functions have been borrowed wholesale from other functions and random web pages without really understanding how they work. What it does now that it didn't do before: Report OL instead of OB when on AC Report corrected values for voltages & frequency I expect that the values for things like "NeedReplacement" will also need converting, but I haven't checked yet. What are the next steps? Obviously I will check those other values (NeedReplacement etc) and pass them through the conversion if required, but what about other metrics? Are ALL the features of the UPS automatically added to the stub driver? If not, how would I go about discovering them. For example, let's imagine the UPS could report an estimated "time remaining", how would one discover this feature, or is it impossible without a data sheet? Thanks for all the guidance so far. Cheers, Will
