<p>Hello,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This email is regarding a link someone sent me to a page describing how to communicate to an APC power supply.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://eu1.networkupstools.org/protocols/apcsmart.html" target="_blank">http://eu1.networkupstools.org/protocols/apcsmart.html</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>I realize you aren’t the owner of the content rkroll is but his contact me link is dead. I got my UPS working just fine so this isn’t a help me email. I just wanted to mention a few things that could be updated on the page. I have a
APC model 2200 and to communicate with it serially I needed to have the following config on my COM port: 2400 bps/8N1 with a flow control of Xon/Xoff. The link above does not mention that last part.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Another thing I learned is that for me at least, my UPS wouldn’t talk to me at all until I sent it the “Y” command. I must send this every time the UPS is turned off and then back on, or else it will return no communication.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Didn’t know if you wanted to add this information to that page or confirm it to anyone else. Thanks again. <br></p></div></div></blockquote><div>do you mean that you have problems running the apcsmart driver?<br><br>
