I have a temperature sensor (normally closed) that opens when it reaches a pre-defined temp. what I am trying to do is use NUT to look for the circuit opening and trigger an action (email or whatever). Is there a NUT ups driver I can use to do this? If so, does anybody know which pins on the serial I should connect the sensor to?

Someone else might have some suggestions about which pins to use, but the genericups driver is the one which allows you to choose which pins map to various states:

You probably want to map the sensor to the on line/on battery states, since the low battery state is meant to be a one-way trip to shutting down the system. The OL and OB states mentioned in the genericups man page will trigger the first two notifications listed here:
