April 19, 20206 yr Hi guys, After many years I eventually went and bought a UPS device and after reading a number of forums here I eventually went with APC 1200gi, (Reconditioned) more than what I need and according to the forums here it will work with Unraid. However I cannot seem to get it to communicate with my setup. I had to get a separate cable, USB to Ethernet (maybe I have the wrong cable) and have tried various combinations of Cable type and UPS type in the ups settings page as well as various USB ports on the motherboard but same no communications warning. Attached a screenshot of the UPS settings page. Anyway thanks in advance for any help ye can offer

You should buy something like as below https://www.ebay.com/c/1331429843 Edited April 19, 20206 yr by Benson
