[Nut-upsuser] Tripp Lite SMART1000RM2U

[Dawning Sky]

Hi,

I recently purchased a Tripp Lite SMART1000RM2U UPS
(http://www.tripplite.com/en/products/model.cfm?txtSeriesID=744&txtModelID=2657)
and tried to configure the NUT with tripplite_usb driver and encounter
the following problems:

1. battery.charge doesn't report correct charge level when the UPS is
On Batter.  It just reports 0.  Even though it will report 100 when on
line power.

2. I tried a shutdown test, but the NUT daemon failed to issue the
shutdown command.  About 30 min after I switched off the line power,
the UPS started the long beep, which indicated low battery, and I did
receive the LOWBATTERY notification from the NUT daemon.  But the
computer didn't shutdown, until another 25 min later, when the battery
was depleted.

3. Another thing I suppose it's a problem of the UPS itself, is that
it will go into ONBATTERY status for a few seconds, even though the
line power is never lost.  I guess it could be caused by some
transient in the power line?

I've listed the output of upsc and tripplite_usb --DDD below.  I'm
running NUT 2.4.3 with tripplite_usb driver 0.20 on Fedora 14 x86_64.
