V6 Plugin for APC UPS

[mr_cb7]

Is there still a working plugin for APC UPS's that work with the latest version of UnRaid?

 

Thanks

Has anyone seen odd issues with the built in one?

I have not had issues with the v5 APC UPS driver - the v6 one seems to always display around 0.76 minutes to 2.25 minutes left.

 

It is a APC UPS backup-pro 750, 27% load and on v5 42minute runtime. all other stats are as before.

In one case unraid shutdown based on the UPS state.

 

Right now I have the runtime setting set to 0 in hopes it disables that check.

How old is your battery? Typical life is between 2-4 years, but sometimes less. A cell gone bad in the UPS battery will severely cut down runtime, and the UPS is able to sense that.

Brand new battery.

Think may have this one solved. It appears to be a APC UPS issue. Around the same time as my v5 -> v6 upgrade I swapped a new battery in. In some cases the APC will have a brain fart and get confused. Under windows the APC app would do a calibration, for apcupd a manual calibration is required.

 

I just swapped it with another APC unit I had and it works fine now
