[Nut-upsuser] NUT with Cyber Power 700 AVR

[Rob Donovan]

I installed nut 2.4.3-1 from Debian Squeeze packages on my Debian Lenny 
system using dpkg (I purged the 2.2.2 install first).  I set up the 
/etc/nut/ files.

usb doesn't work because it needs the patch described in this thread (I 
get the same errors):
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsuser/2010-May/006034.html

I switched off the UPS, hooked up the serial cable, powered on UPS, 
checked that my computer still has External Connector set to serial
device 1, checked the permissions on /dev/ttyS0.  All good.

But, same errors as before.  See below.

I'm aware that the only thing I haven't established is that the serial 
port on this computer is working.  Unfortunately I don't have any other 
serial devices, and the only other method I'd seen involves paper clips 
and I don't really want to get into that on my nice new machine!

I guess I'll try and apply that patch.  Otherwise it's back to 2.2.2 on 
usb with a really long DEADTIME.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks
