23.7 Legacy Series / Re: NUT (APC UPS Smart 1400 + ATEN UC232A)

« on: October 30, 2023, 11:13:03 pm »

My attempts revealed the following:

- NUT does not have access rights to /dev/ttyU0.
- If I give the NUT user permission, the plugin works until computer restart.
- If I enter the NUT user with the appropriate privileges in devfs.conf, it will return to its original state after the machine is restarted.

perm    /dev/ttyU0      0660
own     /dev/ttyU0      nut:wheel

- I found a description that I set, but it doesn't work after a reboot either.

I'm clueless. Does anyone have a good solution to this problem?

Dear community,

I have an old APC Smart 1400 with a serial connector. It connects to the firewall via an ATEN UC232A adapter.

Does anyone have the mentioned setting working? Unfortunately, I can't set it up. Can anyone help with this?

That's what I'm guessing. Is it worth reporting this as a bug?

21.1 Legacy Series / APC UPS (NUT) config problem

« on: May 04, 2021, 08:58:35 am »

Hi,

I have a APC Smart UPS 1400i. An Aten serial-usb converter is connected to this. It is connected directly to the Opnsense machine. The converter becomes visible in the log: /dev/cuaU0

I installed NUT. For the UPS type, I chose the APCSMART driver. For Extra Arguments, the auto setting doesn't work for me, so I rewrote this: port=/dev/cuaU0

Unfortunately, that doesn't work either. What am I spoiling?

Comment: With both settings, the web gui is unavailable for a long time. It will recover over time.
