I am not an expert on this matter but I can tell you I am having issues with Freebsd 10.2 with a Tripp Lite ups myself 

Hopefully a dev can look in to FreeBSD 10.2

Sent from my LG G3.

Hi;

I'm having some trouble to comunicate with my just bought (08/17/15)
Ups. According to SOLIS(8):

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

This driver has been tested with :

    Solis 1000 VA
    Solis 1500 VA
    Solis 2000 VA
    Solis 3000 VA
    Back-UPS BZ1200-BR
    Back-UPS BZ2200BI-BR

So solis is the one to go for.


Here is my scenario:

SW:  nut-2.7.3 (compiled from ports) 
OS:  FreeBSD 10.2-STABLE #2 r286923
UPS: APC BACK UPS 2200 model BZ2200BI-BR (usb interface)
     using a printer-like usb cable (bundled)

When I plug it in, here is what comes up:

ugen1.2: <APC BY SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC> at usbus1
umodem0: <APC BY SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC APC USB SERIAL CONVERTER., 
class 2/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2> on usbus1 
umodem0: data interface 1, has no CM over data, has no break


[>]usbconfig list

ugen1.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL
(12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA) 

ugen0.1: <UHCI root HUB Intel> at usbus0, cfg=0
md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA) 

ugen2.1: <EHCI root HUB Intel>at usbus2, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=HIGH
(480Mbps) pwr=SAVE (0mA) 

ugen1.2:<APC USB SERIAL CONVERTER. APC BY SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC> at
usbus1, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (100mA)


And here are the devices I get after pluging it in:

ttyU0
ttyU0.init
ttyU0.lock

cuaU0
cuaU0.init
cuaU0.lock

ugen1.2 (ugen1.2 -> usb/1.2.0)

(no umodem0 device shows)


** ups.conf

[lobos]
  driver = solis
  port = /dev/ttyU0 (or cuaU0, or ugen1.2)


*** RESULTS

** ugen1.2

[>]/usr/local/libexec/nut/solis -D -a lobos -u root
Network UPS Tools - Microsol Solis UPS driver 0.62 (2.7.3)

  21.249301     Solis not detected! aborting ...

** cuaU0

Network UPS Tools - Microsol Solis UPS driver 0.62 (2.7.3)
   0.000000     debug level is '1'

using 'upsdrvctl -t -u root start lobos' yields the same results.


On windows it works with the software that I downloaded for it
but the server is FreeBSD. Windows is just the desktop I use for
occasional audio production.


Would anyone have any pointers of what else I can try to make this
work?

Thanks for any suggestions.
