Hi
Has anyone got a Compaq(/HP) T700 UPS to work with the BCMXCP
driver? I've built yesterday's CVS of NUT 2.1 on one of my FreeBSD systems but
chown root:wheel /dev/cuaa0
/usr/local/libexec/upsdrvctl -u root start
gives:
--
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.1.0
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.10 (2.1.0)
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Can't find the UPS on port /dev/cuaa0!
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
--
I tried several values for baud_rate but with the same result.
ups.conf contains:
--
[compaq]
driver = bcmxcp
port = /dev/cuaa0
desc = "Compaq T700h"
--
I'm assuming that the UPS and cable are OK since Windows XP detects
the presence of a Powerware UPS.
Any suggestions or pointers would be appreciated
Regards
Bernard
