optiups \- Driver for Opti\-UPS (Viewsonic) UPS and Zinto D (ONLINE\-USV) equipment
|
||
|
|
.SH "NOTE"
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
This man page only documents the hardware\-specific features of the optiups driver\&. For information about the core driver, see \fBnutupsdrv\fR(8)\&.
|

|
|
.SH "SUPPORTED HARDWARE"
|
||

|
.sp
|
||
|
|
\fBoptiups\fR 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\&.
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
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\&.
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
This driver will not work with the PowerES stock serial cable\&. You will need to construct your own three conductor cable:

|

|
|
The cable for Online\-USV uses pin UPS 7 (not UPS 4) → PC 5\&.
|
||
|
|
.SH "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
This driver supports the following optional settings in the \fBups.conf\fR(5) file:
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
\fBstatus_only\fR
|
||
|
|
.RS 4
|
||
|
|
Only poll for critical status information\&. Without this,
|
||
|
|
\fBoptiups\fR
|
||
|
|
(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\&.
|
||
|
|
.RE
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
\fBnowarn_noimp\fR
|
||
|
|
.RS 4
|
||
|
|
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
|
||
|
|
\fBnowarn_noimp\fR, this message will only be logged once\&.
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
\fBfake_lowbatt\fR
|
||
|
|
.RS 4
|
||
|
|
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\&.
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
For basic shutdown configuration testing, the command
|
||
|
|
\fIupsmon \-c fsd\fR
|
||
|
|
is preferred\&.

\fBpowerup\fR
|
||
|
|
.RS 4
|
||
|
|
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!

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\&.
