Hi Mike,

> (genericups, type=4) I tried to set up Nut as follows.

> OS: Ubuntu Server 12.04
> Nut: 2.6.3 (I believe - from Ubuntu repos)

> ups.conf:

>> [apollo]
>> driver = genericups
>> upstype = 4
>> port = /dev/ttyUSB0

> Problem is that there is no ttyUSB0 device. UPS attaches to machine via
> USB cable, and lsusb indicates that it is a Cypress Semiconductor USB to
> Serial cable.

try using this in ups.conf:
[apollo]
    driver = blazer_usb
    port = auto

start the driver using:
$ /lib/nut/blazer_usb -u root -DDDDD -a apollo

let the driver run for a couple of minutes, then Ctrl+C, and send back the
output in compressed form.

cheers,
Arnaud
