Hi Having followed this guide: http://blog.shadypixel.com/monitoring-a-ups-with-nut-on-debian-or-ubuntu-linux/and seeing support for Apollo UPSes mentioned on the compatibility list (genericups, type=4) I tried to set up Nut as follows.
OS: Ubuntu Server 12.04 Nut: 2.6.3 (I believe - from Ubuntu repos) ups.conf: > [apollo] > driver = genericups > upstype = 4 > port = /dev/ttyUSB0 Problem is that there is no ttyUSB0 device. UPS attaches to machine via USB cable, and lsusb indicates that it is a Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial cable. > $ lsusb > Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub > Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub > Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub > Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub > Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub > Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub > Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0665:5161 Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial I have seen that the USB ports should be created by > sudo mknod /dev/ttyUSB0 c 188 0 but I am unsure how to get the Cypress converter to bind to this port, nor how to get the port to be auto-created. If I'm heading down the wrong path, please let me know, otherwise, please point me in the right direction? Thanks Mike
