Hi All,

I’m trying to configure NUT 2.6.1 on Windows 2008 R2 to recognise two APC Smart-UPS 3000 devices connected via USB cables.

I have correctly installed libusb-win32, and run the driver wizard.

In my ups.conf I have :-

[Upper]
       driver = usbhid-ups
       port = auto
       desc = "Upper Smart-UPS 3000"
       vendorid = 051d
       serial = “JS1011030553”

^ Does your configuration file have regular double-quotes (") or the "smart quotes" shown above? (“”)


[Lower]
       driver = usbhid-ups
       port = auto
       desc = "Lower Smart-UPS 3000"
       vendorid = 051d
       serial = "JS1011030544"


However, this configuration cause the driver to crash.
I have further identifed that inclusion of even a single instance of the ‘vendorid’ or ‘serial’ entries will also cause the driver to crash i.e. :-

[Upper]
       driver = usbhid-ups
       port = auto
       desc = "Upper Smart-UPS 3000"
#      vendorid = 051d
       serial = “JS1011030553”

#[Lower]
#      driver = usbhid-ups
#      port = auto
#      desc = "Lower Smart-UPS 3000"
#      vendorid = 051d
#      serial = "JS1011030544"

Or

[Upper]
       driver = usbhid-ups
       port = auto
       desc = "Upper Smart-UPS 3000"
       vendorid = 051d
#      serial = “JS1011030553”

#[Lower]
#      driver = usbhid-ups
#      port = auto
#      desc = "Lower Smart-UPS 3000"
#      vendorid = 051d
#      serial = "JS1011030544"

Can you let me know whether the driver on Windows _should_ be capable of supporting two UPS devices in this way?

I CC'd Fred at Eaton, who is working on the Windows port. If the code is in place, maybe he has some suggestions for getting a crash dump to help debug this.
