dont know what to do

tried on legacy and 2.8.2

Here we go - current master with debug symbols, same procedure as before.

Please do report back again with your findings - thanks in advance! 🙂

@Rysz Thanks again for generating the new build from the NUT master branch. The NUT fixes for Gamatronic Driver worked, and it's finally the first time I've been able to get NUT to start on my UPS "Nobreak NHS Premium PDV Senoidal 1500 VA" from Brazillian brand "NHS Sistemas de Energia"

Hey, thanks for reporting back and glad it works for you now. I've just pushed an update to NUT where the "preview (latest build)" backend is now today's master including the fixes for your driver. So after updating NUT you just need to choose the "preview (latest build)" backend in NUT Settings and reboot your system afterwards, then you'll be on that driver natively (also surviving any system reboots).

Thanks again for your help and patience investigating this issue. 🙂

Hi Everyone,

I have question about Back-UPS XS 1300G Battery upgrades. My original batteries died and i replaced them with lead acid batteries different capacity ( much higher ) and same voltage. Is it possible to " explain" to UPS that need s to calculate estimated times for battery life time? It reports 1:15 minutes on 24V 130AH batteries. Also, what is the format of command in upc.conf that i can change battery manufacture date? i tried "battery.mfr.date : 2023/06/10" , battery.mfr.date = 2023/06/10 but that just disables plugin.

Sorry, im new in all this and my programming skils are limited with copy and paste. However, i would like to extend UPS backup time .

Any help is appreciated,

Best Regards,

Tim

Sorry, I can't provide support for usage cases outside of manufacturer's specifications. For safety reasons and from experience I'd also strongly advise against using any different battery capacity than those your UPS was rated for by the UPS manufacturer. The electrical mechanisms in the UPS may not safely be able to charge and/or discharge the higher capacity battery you are using, which may be hazardous for several reasons (fire, electrical shock, ...)

Depending on how the UPS calculates level you might want to just go based on battery charge % instead of estimated time. Gonna need experimentation to find the right values obviously.

Also monitor your UPS' temperature, it might not have adequate cooling for operating that much longer than designed. Often unless it's designed to take additional external batteries the fact it can't be running longer than X time at Y load is kinda factored in the thermals.

I've been trying to connect my Synology NAS to Unraid using this plugin without success. I have two options in Synology DSM to connect to a network UPS server, Synology NAS and SNMP. Obviously Unraid isn't a Synology NAS, so that doesn't work (I did try just in case). By default the NUT server doesn't seem to support SNMP either, anyone set this up?

Is your UPS physically connected to your UNRAID server or your Synology NAS?

Use this command to start the NUT shutdown routine now:

upsmon -c fsd

The command you posted would result in an unclean shutdown because it would kill the power instantly.

OK, i just tryed to find in code what command running in plugin for :

is also good ?

upscmd shutdown.return - Turn off the load and return when power is back

No, because this will also kill the power of the UPS instantly and result in an unclean shutdown on all your clients and server. Always use only this command to trigger the NUT shutdown routine: It ensures a clean shutdown of your clients and your server, will also disable the UPS power (if that is configured in the GUI) after the clean shutdown and start the UPS again when the power is back.

upsmon -c fsd

Sorry, it doesn't seem like this UPS manufacturer is supported by NUT at all.

It's also not listed in the hardware compatibility list: https://networkupstools.org/stable-hcl.html

And a internal vm, i have a install for it

Hello guys,

Does anyone of you run NetworkUPS Tools with the PeaNUT Homepage integration? I had it working in the past when i was trying out an ACP UPS. However, with my Cyberpower UPS (way lower idle draw from the UPS itself) I cannot get this widget to work.

Any ideas what i might have configured wrong?

I am using the Huawei UPS2000-A-2KTTS | 2KVA / 1600W with a built-in battery tower UPS, but when I use the NUT Device Scanner, it shows the following message:

NO DEVICES FOUND Please visit the 'Driver Guide' and manually choose the recommended driver for your UPS. In case of persisting problems please try another physical port, cable or the 'Support Thread'.

However, I checked the compatibility on the NUT Hardware Compatibility List and found that my UPS is supported. I am not sure what is wrong or if my settings are incorrect. I would appreciate any help with this issue.

Your settings are not correct, please try this configuration instead and let me know:

Thank you for your help, it is now working correctly. I have another question: I am currently using a 2303 to USB adapter, but I have an additional SNMP intelligent card. However, according to the Hardware Compatibility List, it seems that the UPS2000-A series does not support the SNMP intelligent card. I am not sure if it will still work properly if I switch to the SNMP card.

It can also work with SNMP, because for SNMP you would use another driver and not "huawei-ups2000" (that is only for a physical connection to the UPS). If you use SNMP, you would use the driver "snmp-ups" and set the UPS Port to the IP of your SNMP card (see where the red arrow is in the screenshot).

This would be an example SNMP configuration:

grafik.png.08b1cb70f2b5c346d5089e35018ec88b.png

But beware you need to make sure that the network connection to your UPS stays available in a power outage, so any switches also need to be connected to the UPS.

它还可以与 SNMP 一起使用，因为对于 SNMP，您将使用另一个驱动程序，而不是“huawei-ups2000”（仅用于与 UPS 的物理连接）。如果您使用 SNMP，则可以使用驱动程序“snmp-ups”并将 UPS 端口设置为 SNMP 卡的 IP（参见屏幕截图中红色箭头的位置）。这是 SNMP 配置示例：

但请注意，您需要确保 UPS 的网络连接在停电时保持可用，因此任何交换机也需要连接到 UPS。

Thanks!!!
