[Nut-upsuser] Brand new EATON 3S700DIN (mfr.date 09/28/14) doesn't wait for LB flag

[Philip Taylor]

Sergey,

I’m no expert on this but I have been reading the driver code, trying to sort out bigger problems with the OpenUPS driver! I can make 2 observations that I can’t check out myself :

‘beeper.disable’ was previously ‘beeper off’ - and ‘beeper.enable’ was ‘beeper.on’. Not sure if it’s worth trying the old versions?

If your UPS doesn’t wait for LB, could this be because there is another status flag triggering shutdown? Like shutdown_imminent, or time limit_exceeded?

I’ve been reading usbhid-ups.c this morning and had just read both  about both things in the first few pages of code.

For what it’s worth! Someone may well tell me I’m wrong.

Regards, Philip.
