[Nut-upsuser] Anyone successfully used NUT with the Eaton "5E Essential UPS"

[Shane Alderton]

Hi,


Wondering whether anyone has managed to get NUT working with the Eaton
5E Essential UPS, or has any tips as to what I might try to get it
working, or whether I'm just out of luck?


My config is:
OS name and version: Kubuntu 14.04
exact NUT version: 2.7.1-1ubuntu1
NUT installation method: sudo apt-get install nut
exact device name: 5E2000iUSB-AU
ups.conf entry:
[Eaton5E2000]
driver = usbhid-ups -DD
port = auto
desc = "Eaton 5E2000 UPS"
Output of "sudo /lib/nut/usbhid-ups -DD -a Eaton5E2000":
Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.38 (2.7.1)
USB communication driver 0.32
