Hi Jim
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for the reply. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In NUT under unRAID there is indeed a setting to enter a driver in. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Which driver are you suggesting I try as nutdrv_qx makes NUT work, but no communication between NUT and the UPS. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just tried nutdrv_atcl_usb.c as driver and NUT will not start. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there anything else I need to enter in UPS.conf to get it to work?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards</div>
<div><br>
</div>

<div>I believe nutdrv_atcl_usb is orthogonal to nutdrv_qx "fuji" subdriver. They both handle devices using an "ATCL" USB chip which does not have a registered vendorId/productId, but that is where similarity stops. Different UPS vendors implemented different
protocols and abilities using that chip as a transport, hence two unrelated drivers.</div>

string to match on a device which it finds with hardcoded vid:pid by looking at all USB devices.</div>

<div dir="auto">Unfortunately I can't help with setup of unRAID bit. I'd assume there is a place to state which NUT driver you want.</div>

<div>I have posted my findings on their forums and not had much response besides other users wanting it to work too. </div>

<div>How does one utilise nutdrv_actl_usb?</div>

</div>
<div>As a means of connecting to a Powercool UPS along with nutdrv_qx?</div>

<div>Seeing this - <a href="https://github.com/cbedgar/nut/blob/1e9216399b890b0770a0e8b158109eaa5e61d332/data/driver.list.in" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/cbedgar/nut/blob/1e9216399b890b0770a0e8b158109eaa5e61d332/data/driver.list.in</a></div>

<div>Fills me with hope that it’s feasible. </div>

<div>Is it feasible or am I wasting my time?</div>
