[Nut-upsuser] This Liebert device (10af:0002) is not supported. Newer Lithium PSI5 device.

[Lucas Keipper]

I added the 'productid = 0002' line to my ups.conf and get this new output:

sudo /sbin/upsdrvctl start

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4
Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.41 (2.7.4)
USB communication driver 0.33
Can't claim USB device [10af:0002]: could not detach kernel driver from
interface 0: Operation not permitted
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

Anything else I can try?
