greyday Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) I recently upgraded my UPS to a Bxterra, so I had to disable the default UPS monitor and install the NUT plugin, which worked fine. But now I'm getting this weird issue where after a few days the UPS monitor turns itself back on, dropping the NUT plugin from the dashboard/replacing it with the original with no info, and sending me a "lost contact with UPS" error. I checked the settings and the monitor is still set to disabled and the NUT plugin is still enabled, the data is still there on the plugin page, and the NUT page footer is still active and displaying the percentage and load. Is there something extra that needs to be done to disable the default UPS monitor? Or a way to uninstall it entirely perhaps? Edited October 15, 2021 by greyday Quote Link to comment

Not reproducible as in I can make it happen, but recurring—it happens every couple days. I tried switching the connection setting from usb to custom to see if maybe it was just still detecting the connection even though it was disabled, will post back if that solved the problem… Quote Link to comment
greyday Posted October 15, 2021 Author Share Posted October 15, 2021 I'm going to assume that sorted it and go ahead and mark this sorted, but for posterity: it seems that disabling the UPS Monitor isn't enough if you want to use NUT with a USB connection, you have to set the input in UPSM to anything but USB...
