[Nut-upsuser] Belkin F6C750-AVR Nut Driver for Linux

[xqa xqa]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to UPSs and Linux.  I purchased a Belkin F6C750-AVR UPS for our church.  We are running CENTOS 5.2.

I tried the Linux Power Management Software that came with Belkin UPS with NO success.

I installed the NUT software.

After some experimentation I received some success with the megatec_usb Nut driver:

[root at server bin]# /sbin/megatec_usb -u root -a serverups -DDDD
Network UPS Tools 2.2.0- - Megatec protocol driver 1.5.4 [megatec_usb]
Carlos Rodrigues (c) 2003-2007
Serial-over-USB transport layer for Megatec protocol driver [megatec_usb]

ups.conf:

[serverups]
        driver = megatec_usb
        port = auto
        desc = "UPS Office"

upsd.users


# MONITOR myups at myhost 1 monuser pass master    (or slave)
        [admin]
                password = xxxxx
                allowfrom = ALL
        [monuser]
                password = xxxxx
                allowfrom = ALL
                upsmon master

upsd.conf

ACL all 0.0.0.0/0
ACL localhost 127.0.0.1/32
ACCEPT localhost
REJECT all

As you can see the F6C750-AVR appears to be megatec protocol.

Does anyone know what I need to do to control how I can control the Belkin F6C750-AVR UPS?

Have I missed some config?

If NUT is not the correct tool, does anyone know what else I should try?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

-John
