<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am still having problems with NUT, it stops communication
completely after a few days of uptime, however I have messed with
Polfreg and Polintervals but none makes no difference, if i
restart nut-server it shows it looses communication between the
UPS then connects again however pulling the plug it does not
detect that the UPS is on battery, I have tried on multiple
systems, pfSense, Debian on a Raspberry Pi and on a old Laptop and
same problem occurs.</p>
<p>Any ideas?</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Jack<br>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Thanks for your reply,</p>
<p>On Server side i don't have have pollonly or
interrupts. What you recommend to try?</p>

evening folks,<br>
<br>
So I configured NUT on a Raspberry Pi 4 both UPS
are connected over USB <br>
however the switch from AC Power to Battery seems
to be delayed on the <br>
NUT communication would anyone have any ideas? The
Pi Reports that the <br>
UPS is on battery around 30 seconds later I think
this delay is long. I <br>
have tested it on a physical computer and the
detection is around 5 to 6 <br>
seconds with the communication from the UPS to the
machine. I have <br>
tested both USB 2 and 3 Ports but same problem<br>
