Hi,

   I am trying to get a tripp-lite UPS monitored.  It is connected to a
system through usb.
Here is my ups.conf:

[myups]
                driver = hidups
                port = /dev/usb/hiddev0

Here is what lsusb shows:

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 09ae:0001 Tripp Lite
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Here is what reports when I try to start usbdrvctl

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.2
Network UPS Tools: HID UPS driver 0.13 (2.0.2)

Warning: This is an experimental driver.
Some features may not function correctly.

/dev/usb/hiddev0 is not a UPS

Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

What else would I be missing to get this up and monitoring?

Thanks in advance.

Jon
