Hi Charles, Thanks for the reply.
The actual configuration file uses regular double quotes, not smart quotes (these got added erroneously in the email). I originally tried a number of variations, both including and exclude quotes. The behaviour is still evident, even when omitting the serial line, and just including vendorid, which has no quotes at all.

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.
