trying to integrate my APC Back-UPS 650 with HA. My HA is running
on a Dell Wyse 5070 thin client; When I connect the UPS to the
Dell via USB, what may (but not always) show up in the device list
is like /dev/bus/ups/001/009. The details of this device show all
the APC device details. No other /dev entry links to the UPS. The
NUT App steadfastly refuses to use this device, issuing verbose,
specific, objections in the log, while trying to connect to some
random Belkin device, failing and restarting, over and over and
over. It seems that the problem is that the APC UPS is not fully
recognized and “handled” by the OS.<br>
Is this a known issue? Is there a fix? Am I doing something wrong?</p>

Here’s some of the log file.<br>
“Network UPS Tools 2.8.5 release - Generic HID driver 0.71<br>
USB communication driver (libusb 1.0) 0.53<br>
WARNING: warn_if_bad_usb_port_filename(): port argument specified
to<br>
the driver is “/dev/bus/usb/001/009” but USB drivers do not use it
and rely on<br>
libusb walking all devices and matching their identification
metadata.<br>
NUT documentation recommends port=“auto” for USB devices to avoid
confusion.<br>
This Belkin device (050d:0119) is not (or perhaps not yet)
supported<br>
by usbhid-ups. Please make sure you have an up-to-date version of
NUT.<br>
If this does not fix the problem, try running the driver with the<br>
‘-x productid=0119’ option, or iterate with explicit ‘-x
subdriver=…’<br>
option. Please report your results to the NUT user’s mailing list<br>
