[Nut-upsdev] TrippLite USB UPS

[Peter Selinger]

Congratulations, your device is now 60% supported. I have added the
product ID and most of the new data paths. 

You can do "svn update" and build the driver. It should now run out of
the box and you can follow the instructions in INSTALL to set up your
system. 

Before it is 100% supported, I need you to:

- run upsd and verify the output of "upsc" and report anything
  suspicious (such as a voltage of 500V, or a temperature of 70
  Celsius, or anything like that). [10%]

- also in "upsc", verify that ups.status shows the "OB" flag when the
  UPS is on battery and the "LB" flag when the battery is low. Also
  "OL" when the UPS is on line power. These are used by upsmon to
  decide when to power down your machine. (Do not run upsmon yet when
  you perform this test - you don't want your machine to actually
  power off). [10%]

- check if all or some of the instant commands are working. Candidates
  are:

  test.battery.start.quick
  test.battery.start.deep
  test.battery.stop

  beeper.on    (these will only have an effect if the UPS is on battery)
  beeper.off   (these will only have an effect if the UPS is on battery)

  *** WARNING: BEFORE TESTING THE FOLLOWING, PLUG YOUR COMPUTER INTO
  *** THE WALL, NOT INTO THE UPS. Plug a desk lamp or similar into the UPS
  *** to see if the load is on or off.

  load.off       
  load.on
  shutdown.return
  shutdown.stop

  [10%]

- finally, check whether the "-k" option to "usbhid-ups" shuts off the
  load. *** WARNING: SAME AS ABOVE ***. This is necessary for a proper
  shutdown process. [10%]

If all tests are positive, your UPS is 100% supported, and I will
remove the "experimental" from data/driver.list. Otherwise, we might
have to tinker a bit more.

Indeed, this is what I meant. I am not used to the new driver name
yet. -- Peter


P.S. for our future reference, I am attaching the HID Usage Trees for
two different Tripp Lite devices. As you can, see they are quite
similar.
