Hi Charles, Thanks for the response!
I don't believe the battery.charge is actually 30%. I watched the "battery.charge" go down from "100" to "3", so I can only assume this field to be "%". Here is what it currently looks like after charging over the weekend: ==================================================== [root@localhost ~]# upsc myups@localhost battery.charge: 100 battery.charge.low: 10 battery.charge.warning: 30 battery.runtime: 2273 battery.temperature: 33.9 battery.type: PbAC battery.voltage: 54.6 battery.voltage.nominal: 48.0 device.mfr: Tripp Lite device.model: TRIPP LITE SMART2200RM2UN device.serial: 2608CY0SM8########### device.type: ups driver.name: usbhid-ups driver.parameter.pollfreq: 30 driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2 driver.parameter.port: auto driver.version: 2.6.5 driver.version.data: TrippLite HID 0.8 driver.version.internal: 0.37 input.frequency: 59.7 input.transfer.high: 0.0 input.transfer.low: 0.0 input.voltage: 115.1 input.voltage.nominal: 120 output.current: 2.00 output.frequency: 59.7 output.frequency.nominal: 60 output.voltage: 0.0 output.voltage.nominal: 120 ups.beeper.status: enabled ups.delay.shutdown: 20 ups.delay.start: 30 ups.load: 17 ups.mfr: Tripp Lite ups.model: TRIPP LITE SMART2200RM2UN ups.power: 0.0 ups.power.nominal: 2200 ups.productid: 3015 ups.serial: 2608CY0SM882500034 ups.status: OL ups.timer.reboot: -1 ups.timer.shutdown: -1 ups.timer.start: -1 ups.vendorid: 09ae ups.watchdog.status: 0 ==================================================== Kept the first few of the Serial # this time. Didn't realize it could actually be helpful. Regarding the "-DDD" option, what command do I run this with? Which command to stop and start the driver? Also, thanks for the advice about "ignoreLB". I'm going to give that a shot, but I'm still curious why it isn't sensing my Low Battery state and actually putting that information into my ups.status. Please let me know about the "-DDD" option. Thanks again for your advice. -- Kamran Khan ________________________________________ From: Charles Lepple <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 14, 2016 4:52:18 AM To: Kamran Khan Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Nut-upsuser] Low Battery event not occurring > > battery.charge: 3 > battery.charge.low: 10 > battery.charge.warning: 30 > battery.runtime: 93 > battery.temperature: 32.9 > battery.type: PbAC > battery.voltage: 46.4 > battery.voltage.nominal: 48.0 Is it possible that battery.charge is really 30% rather than 3%? The 3016 protocol models have issues with scaling on some of the voltages and frequencies. You can see this by killing the driver, and restarting it with '-DDD'. If you want to mail that log to the list, please gzip it first. Also, only about the first minute would be necessary. > device.mfr: Tripp Lite > device.model: TRIPP LITE SMART2200RM2UN > device.serial: nunyabiznis Pretty sure the letters in the serial numbers are uppercase :-) Given how many of the model names are reused for very different hardware, it can be helpful to see at least the first few digits of a serial number, but in this case, I don't think we have too many other reports of this hardware to go on. The closest ones seem to be: http://networkupstools.org/ddl/Tripp_Lite/SMART2200RMXL2U.html > If I understand the NUT process correctly, it looks for this LB status in > order to create the POWERDOWNFLAG. "In upsmon.conf, add a POWERDOWNFLAG > directive with a filename. upsmon will create this file when the UPS needs to > be powered off during a power failure when low battery is reached." That is correct. You can also configure NUT drivers to ignore the UPS's LB flag and synthesize it from battery.charge or battery.runtime: http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/ups.conf.html (search for 'ignorelb') -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
