NAME

       optiups - Driver for Opti-UPS (Viewsonic) UPS and Zinto D (ONLINE-USV) equipment

NOTE

       This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the optiups driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       optiups was originally written against a PowerES 280es in nut-0.45. It was revised for nut-2.0.1 and tested against a PowerES 420E. It is
       expected to work with at least the PowerES, PowerPS, and PowerVS models.

       This driver additionally supports a Zinto D from ONLINE USV-Systeme AG because of their very similar commands, but it is unknown if it also
       works with other UPS from them.

       This driver will not work with the PowerES stock serial cable. You will need to construct your own three conductor cable:

	   UPS 6 -> PC 3
	   UPS 9 -> PC 2
	   UPS 4 -> PC 5

       The cable for Online-USV uses pin UPS 7 (not UPS 4) -> PC 5.

EXTRA ARGUMENTS

       This driver supports the following optional settings in the ups.conf(5) file:

       status_only
	   Only poll for critical status information. Without this, optiups (and all NUT drivers) poll all sorts of information from the UPS
	   fairly often. It is probably not often enough to hurt anything, so this option probably is not very useful, unless you have a flaky
	   serial connection or a highly loaded machine.

       nowarn_noimp
	   Does not print warnings when the UPS reports that a variable is not implemented or not pollable. Without the option you will get a
	   message sent to your system logs each time NUT polls the UPS. If you specify nowarn_noimp, this message will only be logged once.

       fake_lowbatt
	   This forces the low battery flag true. Without it, if you want to test your UPS, you will have to unplug it and wait until the battery
	   drops to a low/critical voltage level before NUT will respond and power down your system. With the flag, NUT should power down the
	   system soon after you pull the plug. When you are done testing, you should remove this flag.

	   For basic shutdown configuration testing, the command upsmon -c fsd is preferred.

       powerup
	   Zinto D from ONLINE-USV cannot be identified when switched to standby. Set this flag to allow the driver to power-up your Zinto UPS.
	   This will also power-up your equipment connected to the UPS!

BUGS

       On the 420E, ups.serial and ups.temperature are unsupported features. This is not a bug in NUT or the NUT driver, just the way things are
       with this UPS.

NAME

       mge-ellipse - Driver for MGE UPS serial SHUT Protocol UPS equipment

NOTE

       This  man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the mge-ellipse driver.	For information about the core driver, see nutups-
       drv(8).

SUPPORTED HARDWARE

       mge-ellipse should work with all recent MGE UPS models which use a serial protocol  at 2400 bps, however I only tested it  with	a  Ellipse
       800S model so at the moment only the feature found is this (low end) model are supported.

       Older models (Pulsar series) use the U-Talk protocol and should use the mgeups driver.

EXTRA ARGUMENTS

       This driver supports the following optional settings in the ups.conf(5):

       lowbatt=num
	      Set the low battery warning threshold at which shutdown is initiated by upsmon(8).  The factory default value is 30 (in percentage).

       offdelay=num
	      Set  the	timer before the UPS is turned off after the kill power command is sent (via the -k switch).  The factory default value is
	      120 (in seconds).

       ondelay=num
	      Set the timer for the UPS to switch on in case the power returns after the kill power command had been sent but  before  the  actual
	      switch  off.  This ensures the machines connected to the UPS are, in all cases, rebooted after a power failure.  The factory default
	      value is 13 (in 10 seconds units).

       debug=1
	      logs quite a lot of debugging information to syslog.

BUGS

       The driver should be more generic to be able to handle the capabilities of the whole range of MGE UPS models using the SHUT protocol.
