As I requested here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=678793
Add support for Matrix-UPS firmware 0XM/0XI with additional commands
Description of problem:
The attached patch adds support for Matrix-UPS revision strings 0XI
and 0XM to the apcsmart driver.
The revision string itself isn't completely opaque--it is made up of
different parts as documented on
http://homepage1.nifty.com/Que/plamo/apc-ups/manual/upsbible.html
under "Old Firmware Revision". This implies that many more
combinations of characters could be added to support more revisions &
configurations. Indeed, 0XI and 0XM only differ by the placement of
the 208V/240V input voltage select wire.
The first character can be 0 or 5 for Matrix-UPS 3000 vs. Matrix-UPS
5000. The second character is the actual firmware revision. I've
read in various forums about revisions U, W, X, Y, and Z. There is
probably a V as well. The last character seems to be I for 240V and M
for 208V, which I can change on mine by the placement of the input
voltage select wire.
I've also tested the expanded command list which enables nut to access
more functionality on my Matrix-UPS 3000. I suggest that this same
expanded list could be applied to all the other firmware combinations
as well.
Please consider adding at least this patch which is limited to 0XI/0XM
initially.
Thanks,
Chuck
