[Nut-upsuser] Windows NUT Client - Settings description somewhere ?

[edward.ebay]

Thanks for the information…. If that implies that i need to compile the exe myself, then i will be probably lost… or is there an exe-installation file i can use, like the one i was using up to now ?

 

I will scan through the docs in the links you did send to me and try find my way through…

 

Regards

Eddie

I haven't used that package with Windows (haven't used that for a while) so can't say directly. However I can't find, neither in sources nor in the files stored in the MSI, the GUI program you've sent the screenshot from and particularly the localization strings it uses. Are you sure it was not a separate download?

 

Note that the existing MSI's are based on a branch spun off a NUT 2.6.5 release (newest variants are from 10 years ago). The NUT for Windows effort was restarted in the recent couple of years to become part of the main codebase, with current status outlined in https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/wiki/NUT-for-Windows (some things can be built and run, some known not-yet-ported, installer not re-addressed yet, not sure if anyone ran the full stack with monitoring and shutdowns - at least nobody reported back whether it works end-to-end, I think). It seems there was little interest from developers on this platform (some more from end-users), so I can't remember any PRs and very few investigative tickets posted not by myself. Help is always welcome, as anywhere :)

I did download that for Windows from the NUT-pages – Download-section https://networkupstools.org/download.html

 

See chapter „Binary packages“ – „Windows MSI installer“.

 

Downloaded end of 2023 when i did start with UPS-topic.

 

Let me know if you need additional information.

 

Thanks in advance

I do not seem to recognize that client. Is it part of the old NUT MSI package or a third-party project?

Hi there,

 

Question: Is there anywhere a description of how to use the settings for shutdown options in Windows NUT client ?

 

i have successfully set up NUT on a Raspberry which gathers data from a CyberPower CP1500EPFCLCD.

Have also connected 2 Windows 11 machines and one Synology device tot hat master, in order read data and to react on powersupply issues. All working fine.

 

What i am struggeling with are the settings available in Windows NUT Client about the Shutdown options. My first trial to get the system to hibernate after a power failure was not successful. Seems to be different possible settings which may confuse each other.

Is there anywhere a description of how to use the settings for shutdown options in Windows NUT client ?

 

Current setting see screenshot

 



 

As nothing happened, i did set the first value for battery-threshold to 90%, (while the batt was below) and that then did immediately react with hiberate.

 

My preferred setting would be to wait after powerfailure for 1 minute, then hibernate. Without taking other values into account like batterylevel or batteryruntime…

 

Any help or information on that would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

Eddie
