Thanks for the info. The Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) and Device Dump Library (DDL) are both filled with user-submitted information, so we rely on reports like this.

Before we add this, do all of the values from `upsc` look correct to you? In particular, does `ups.temperature` ever change from 25.0? Also, the value for ups.delay.start (2400) looks high for the requested value (40). Have you done any shutdown testing with this UPS? Do the read/write variables and instant commands (if any) work properly?

Note that in later versions of NUT, the driver for your UPS will be nutdrv_qx (a superset of several Q*-protocol drivers, including blazer_usb).

Another thing: we recently discovered that some Yahoo anti-spam measures result in mass unsubscription of non-Yahoo email users of these lists. Please consider submitting future information from a non-Yahoo email address, or create an issue on the NUT Github project: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/issues
