The boolean variables seem to be indicated by "Yes". I think the "meter map" is the source of the numeric variables: 0.566550 Index Offset Format NUT 0.566617 0027 0000 51 output.frequency 0.566680 0028 0004 51 input.frequency 0.566743 0033 0008 51 battery.voltage 0.566805 0041 0012 f0 battery.voltage.low 0.566866 0043 0016 f0 battery.charge.low 0.566928 0047 0020 f0 ups.load 0.566989 0056 0024 f0 input.voltage 0.567051 0065 0028 51 output.current 0.567113 0068 0032 51 output.current.nominal 0.567175 0078 0036 f0 output.voltage 0.567237 0091 0040 f0 input.quality Maybe Alf has some additional insights? > Ah, I see - I've noticed that when I browse to upsset.cgi, that there are no > Settings reported when I select Settings and click the View button.

You're going to make me actually install the CGI programs, aren't you?

Right, or that the protocol doesn't expose the settings or commands. > p.s.

The part that confuses me is why they would have the same firmware revision for what seem to be different sets of capabilities. Usually, the only internal difference between a 500 VA UPS and a 700 VA UPS is the size of the battery string and maybe the power electronics module. -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
