entered what you said but it still doesn't display anything in Runtime Left.

 

i've tried runtimecal=300,100,600,50

 

then i thought, go further with runtimecal=450,100,900,50 [based on 15 minutes]

 

but it still doesn't display anything.

Works for me

 

This is my config. I have Powercool 2000VA. Guessing you did update once you change the ups.conf and it takes a min or so before it appears + you need to refresh page.

 

[ups]
driver = nutdrv_qx
port = auto

default.battery.voltage.high = 40.40
default.battery.voltage.low = 31.20
default.battery.voltage.nominal = 36.0
runtimecal=300,100,600,50

nice! just logged back in and it has it now. 

What do you think to my 450,100,900,50?

 

should I reduce it to match yours?

Guess should be 900,100,1800,50 for 15 mins full load. but i would go with values you are hsppy with.

thanks, the figures don’t make sense. I’m glad I asked. 
 

 

Don’t worry. I’m not going to hold you to figures. UnRAID will power off 5 minutes after being told it’s on battery.
 

I just didn’t want it to panic it only had 5 minutes of capacity when the load is only 20-25%!

Hi SimonF,

yes, as slave it would be no problem... But I need to keep UPS on this machine as it is the one switched on 24/7.

 

And yes, the file list is just blank as in your screenshot. Any hints about this?

I have created a PR to fix this.

Not at the moment I would need to review the code as it is not my plugin.

If you want to fix before a new package is released, but this will not survive a reboot.

 

from command line nano /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/nut/NUTEditor.page

 

change

 

<input id="editfile" type="text" name="editfile" value="" readonly="" data-pickcloseonfile="true" data-pickfilter="conf,users" data-pickfolders="false" required="required" >

insert data-pickroot="/etc/nut" so it looks like this.

<input id="editfile" type="text" name="editfile" value="" readonly="" data-pickcloseonfile="true" data-pickfilter="conf,users" data-pickroot="/etc/nut" data-pickfolders="false" required="required" >

 

New package has been release for my two PRs

@SimonF

thanks for looking into this. This workaround works for me.

 

Have you already opened a PR?

 

Thanks!!!

 

This fix is in the latest package.

Footer looking brilliant now, thanks a lot!!

So I updated to 6.10rc4 and now the plugin doesn´t auto update on the dashboard, its just stuck at whatever powerdraw/time remaining it was at when i clicked on the page. If I update the page the nut plugin updates powerdraw/tr but then freezes again, and on and on and on. 

Not a big problem, just thought you should know!

Will have a look to see if I can find an issue. Which pages just settings?

It does not refresh on my 6.9.2 machine either. I have found that the $update variable is not set any where. Will look to see if i can find out when it may of changed. Did it ever refresh?

Now that you mentioned it, I just got my ups and were running the built in ups deamon at first, but it did not handle "power off ups" well (instead of 60s it was 60min) so googled and it said your plugin would support it. 
All i know is that that deamon refreshed! 

 

If it never did refresh it´s not a problem report, more of a feature request😅

Its not my plugin but I have made a few tweeks to it. Code is there to refresh just no way to turn it on. Will look to see if that can be added.

for qnap you MUST name the server qnapups thats all you have to do set qnap to slave mode and put in server IP

I recently swapped over from my trusty but now dead APC 650cs to an APC MODEL Back-UPS BX750MI.  NET detects it fine and starts monitoring.  After a few hours (twice in 24 hours), it disconnects with the following error:

 

Nov 22 03:41:15 tdm usbhid-ups[18835]: nut_libusb_get_report: Input/Output Error.

Repeating every second or so and spamming the syslog.  I pull out the USB cable and replug it in, and all works fine:

Until it crashes again.

 

I moved over to the Unraid default UPS setting instead of NUT and it's now been solid without any disconnection.  While I don't *need* the Network feature, it was handy to have.  And I enjoyed the UPS status in the status bar.

 

Any ideas of what could be the issue, or what I can do to resolve it?  here's the UPS Details page for the UPS Settings tab

 

Still getting this error with the latest update on my APC MODEL Back-UPS BX750MI.

 

Once it loses connection I need to pull the USB cable and plug it in again for it to work.  Tried switching to the native Unraid UPS monitor while in this states and it complains of connection error.  After resetting the USB cable the Unraid UPS monitor works fine without any issues.

The updates I have made in lastest package are cosmetic no chnages to core drivers. Will look to see if I can see anything to help. Donyou see any usb erors in log before nut io errror?

Thanks.  No errors prior to NUT losing the USB connection.

@SimonF

 

had read errrors last night so done the usual power off, pull the drive, power up, start/stop array. turn off, reconnect and power on and re-build.

 

but i noticed NUT reporting 0% and charging. [its now on 1%]

 

i didn't touch the UPS, nor turn it off. 

 

any ideas? normally a power cycle wouldn't mess with that.

Looks like the ups is reporting charge as 47%
