hi,<br>
<br>
i own a aeg protect home (think it is a 600 VA)
which has a serial and an usb port.<br>
<br>
using this hack in ups.conf:<br>
[bestupsname]<br>
driver = bestups<br>
port = /dev/ttyUSB0<br>
ID = FOR,750,230,230,11.0,13.5<br>

<br>
i start the driver with:<br>
./bestups -a bestupsname -D -q<br>

<div><br>
the bestups driver is indeed part of the large "Q1
protocol" family:<br>

so the way to go is blazer_ser or blazer_usb<br>

problems<br>

==== problem 1 ====<br>
using FOR is wrong as it then reports as a different
device than it actually is. should i add a new
device string, say APH?<br>

==== problem 2 ====<br>
i would like to use the usb protocol but i don't
know where to start.<br>

both blazer_ser and blazer_usb seem to work although i had
some problems as i forgot to run, the command below, with
the -u root parameter. and because i forgot that i searched

as configured the system was shut down within 25seconds after UPS
was disconnected from power, see also:<br>

<br>
the driver seems to work here as this is exactly what i wanted. when
battery takes over, shutdown the system after 25seconds. this leaves
enough time to replug the power wires if needed but ensured that the
system goes down as soon as possible.<br>
