[...] There seems to be an increasing number of people asking for info on UPS software lately. For the benefit of those people who have asked and those who are about to: FTP site: ftp://ftp.ww.net/pub/wildwind/upsd Mailing list: upsd-list@ww.net About the only thing missing is the cable info Smart Cable: UPS Serial port DB9F <-> DB9M outer shell <-------> outer shell (shield) 1 <-------> 3 Tx data 2 <-------> 2 Rx data Common 5 <-------> 9 Signal Gnd 2400 Baud, 8N1, no flow control Important: You MUST set the switches on the rear of the UPS to the ON (up) position in order to set parameters from upsd. Note that upsd-2.0.1.4 of does not seem to be able to permanently store (in cmos or whatever) the values set with 'tune'. I've asked a question about it but have had no answers. Hope this helps. _-_|\ Terry Dwyer E-Mail: tdwyer@netbsd08.dn.itg.telecom.com.au / \ System Administrator Phone: +61 9 491 5161 Fax: +61 9 221 2631 *_.^\_/ Telecom Australia Telstra Corporation MIME capable mailer v Perth WA ( I do not speak for Telstra or Telecom )
