<div dir="ltr"><p class="MsoNormal">Hi</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have the RCT 3KVA Axpert solar hybrid inverter. It is also known as the MPP Solar PIP-MS
series, the IPS-4000WM and the Voltronic Axpert MKS. I am trying to monitor the inverter using NUT
on a Raspberry Pi (I have tried Ubuntu as well with the same results). I have tried most of the drivers with no
success. The inverter came with the
ViewPower software so I assumed that my best chance would be with the nutdrv_qx
driver since it states on the driver page “if your UPS came with a software
called Viewpower, chances are high that it works with this driver”. I have tried all the protocols but in the end
I get the same error “Device not supported!”.
It does detect the device on VendorID 0665 and ProductID 5161 but I
still get the error. If the device is
really not supported then I will seek another solution but I would really like
to use NUT so if I’m just doing something wrong I would like to fix the
problem. Any advice would be highly
appreciated. Below is the debug output:</p>
