[Nut-upsuser] Configuring a server without an UPS attached

This will sound a bit odd.
I have a current server running with a UPS. I'm in the process of
replacing that server with another and obviously want Nut to monitor the
new server. The new/old servers are in different locations, so I don't
have access to the UPS while configuring the replacement server.
I think I have the config ok, but what errors would you expect to see?
Typically I'm getting a 'driver not connected' type error in
the /var/log/messages:

Is this the 'expected' error in this case?
