NUT variable names and instant commands
=======================================
endif::external_title[]

[NOTE]
.RFC xxxx Recording Document
====
This document is defined by (pending) RFC xxxx and is referenced as the
document of record for the variable names and the instant commands used
in the protocol described by the RFC.

On behalf of the RFC, this document records the names of variables
describing the abstracted state of an UPS or similar power distribution
device, and the instant commands sent to the UPS using command `INSTCMD`,
as used in commands and messages between the Attachment Daemon (the `upsd`
in case of NUT implementation of the standard) and the clients.
====

This document defines the standard names of NUT commands and variables.
Developers should use the names recorded here, with dstate functions and
data mappings provided in NUT drivers for interactions with power devices.

If you need to express a state which cannot be described by any existing
name, please make a request to the NUT developers' mailing list for
definition and assignment of a new name.  Clients using unrecorded names
risk breaking at a future update.  If you wish to experiment with new
concepts before obtaining your requested variable name, you should use
a name of the form `experimental.x.y` for those states.

Put another way: if you make up a name that is not in this list and it
gets into the source code tree, and then the NUT community comes up with
a better name later, clients that already use the undocumented variable
will break when it is eventually changed.  An explicitly "experimental"
data point is less surprising in this regard.

NOTE: In the descriptions, "opaque" means programs should not attempt to
parse the value for that variable as it may vary greatly from one UPS
(or similar device) to the next.  These strings are best handled directly
by the user.


Time and Date format
--------------------

When possible, dates should be expressed in ISO 8601 and RFC 3339 compatible
Calendar format, that is to say "YYYY-MM-DD", or otherwise a Combined Date
and Time representation (`<date>T<time>`, so "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm").
Separators for the date (hyphen) and time (colon) components are required
to conform to both ISO 8601 "extended" format and RFC 3339 required format.

In the case of Date and Time representation, a timezone can be added as per
RFC 3339 and the newer revisions of the ISO 8601 standard (which allow for
negative offsets):

* by appending the letter `Z` for UTC (e.g. "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmZ"), or
* by appending the complete "hours:minutes" positive or negative time
  offsets from UTC (e.g. "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm+03:00").

For more details see examples at
link:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601[Wikipedia page on ISO 8601]
and the publicly available RFC at
link:http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339[RFC 3339].

Other representations from those specifications are not necessarily supported.

|===============================================================================

NOTE: When present, the value of `ups.start.auto` has an impact on
`shutdown.*` commands. For the sake of coherence, shutdown commands
will set `ups.start.auto` to the right value before issuing the command.
That is, `shutdown.stayoff` will first set `ups.start.auto` to `no`,
while `shutdown.return` will set it to `yes`.

NOTE: When possible, time-stamps and dates should be expressed as detailed
above in the Time and Date format chapter.

Three-phase additions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The additions for three-phase measurements would produce a very long table
due to all the combinations that are possible, so these additions are
broken down to their base components.

Phase Count Determination
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

`input.phases` (3 for three-phase, absent or 1 for 1phase)

`output.phases` (as for `input.phases`)

DOMAINs
^^^^^^^

Any input or output is considered a valid DOMAIN.

* input (should really be called input.mains, but keep this for compat)
** input.bypass
** input.servicebypass

* output (should really be called output.load, but keep this for compat)
** output.bypass
** output.inverter
** output.servicebypass

Specification (SPEC)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Voltage, current, frequency, etc are considered to be a specification of
the measurement.

With this notation, the old 1phase naming scheme becomes DOMAIN.SPEC

Example: `input.current`

CONTEXT
^^^^^^^

When in three-phase mode, we need some way to specify the target for most
measurements in more detail. We call this the CONTEXT.

With this notation, the naming scheme becomes DOMAIN.CONTEXT.SPEC when
in three-phase mode.

Example: `input.L1.current`

Valid CONTEXTs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    L1-L2  \
    L2-L3   \
    L3-L1    for voltage measurements
    L1-N    /
    L2-N   /
    L3-N  /

    L1  \
    L2  for current and power measurements
    L3  /
    N  - for current measurement

Valid SPECs
^^^^^^^^^^^

Valid with/without context (i.e. per phase or aggregated/averaged)

|===============================================================================

NOTE:
`battery.charger.status` replaces the historic flags `CHRG` and `DISCHRG`
that were exposed through `ups.status`.
The `battery.charger.status` can have one of the following values:

- `charging`: battery is charging,
- `discharging`: battery is discharging,
- `floating`: battery has completed its charge cycle,
   and waiting to go to resting mode,
- `resting`: the battery is fully charged, and not charging nor discharging.

NOTE: When possible, time-stamps and dates should be expressed as detailed
above in the Time and Date format chapter.

ambient: Conditions from external probe equipment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NOTE: multiple sensors can be exposed using the indexed notation.
'ambient.*', without index or using '0', relates to the embedded sensor.
For example: 'ambient.temperature' represent the embedded sensor temperature.
Other sensors (external, communication card, ...) can use indexes
from '1' to 'n'. For example: 'ambient.1.temperature' for the first external
sensor temperature.

NOTE: *n* stands for the outlet index. A special case is "outlet.0" which is
equivalent to "outlet" (without index), and represent the whole set of outlets
of the device. The most important data is "outlet.count", used to iterate over
the whole set of outlets.
For more information, refer to the NUT outlets management and PDU notes chapter
of the user manual.

outlet.group: groups of smart outlets
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is a refinement of the outlet collection, providing grouped
management for a set of outlets. The same principles and data than the
outlet collection apply to outlet.group, especially for the indexing 'n'
and "outlet.group.count".

Most of the data published for outlets also apply to outlet.group,
including: id, name (similar as outlet "desc"), status, current and
voltage (including status, alarm and thresholds).

Some specific data to outlet groups exists:
