[Nut-upsuser] NUT support for CyberPower PR1500LCDRTXL2Ua

[Ben Kamen]

Hey all,

  I ended up picking up the module listed in Subject line.

I switched over my config but apparently not all going smoothly.

My config is:

[office]
         driver = powerpanel
         port   = /dev/ttyS0
         desc   = "Office UPS"



When I test the driver running power-panel as a test, I get:

> [root at cornelius init.d]# powerpanel -a office -D -D -D -D
> Network UPS Tools - CyberPower text/binary protocol UPS driver 0.25 (2.6.5)
> Warning: This is an experimental driver.
> Some features may not function correctly.

Maybe better off just switching to different driver?

(is the USBHID worth using?)

I'm running CentOS 6.7 on this system. not sure if the gnome USB UPS drivers are installed. (meh)

Thanks,
