[Nut-upsdev] Yet another HID device - Cyberpower AE550

[Peter Selinger]

Hi Joe,

have you been able to get your Cyberpower AE550 to work with
newhidups? As I wrote in May, it should already be supported in the
current version from SVN.

I have not received a bug report from you, so I will assume that it is
working properly until further notice. 

Thanks! -- Peter
