March 31Mar 31 Hi thereI have an UPS model: powervision II upv3000bifxIt only have the rs232 option for connection,Tried nut, the builtin ups option but nothing detects my device (and yes it's working btw).Does anyone have any ideas of what to do? Or steps to make it work...
March 31Mar 31 Community Expert Does your server actually have RS-232 port? Or are you trying to use USB adapter?

March 31Mar 31 Community Expert If you wanted to run 2 computers from that UPS, you could put the interface on the other computer and do the master/slave method. Of course, the other computer would also have to be on when your server was.I have a Windows PC on the same UPS as my Unraid but in my case Unraid is the master and PC gets the UPS status over the network from Unraid.
April 1Apr 1 Author I just want to manage it from my unraid server... not from my machine because is a notebook and i'm not in home most of the time, but i acess my server from a vpn and use it as a proxy. Edited April 1Apr 1 by tadeudca
