blazer_usb for SVEN Power Pro+ 500 USB

Hello guys,

Please help me to resolve the issue.
I bought 'SVEN Power Pro+ 500 USB' UPS few days ago and tried to setup
NUT 2.6.0 to work with it.
blazer_ups driver doesn't recognize the UPS :(
The Manufacturer provides 'PowerD' software for linux with
installation instractions on a CD (see example below).

   --------===-------  Welcom to PowerManager System!     -----===-----
Copyright(C) 2001 Richcomm Technologies, Inc. 2001.10 .
+-+==================+The Current Time Settings +===========================+-+
System Shutdown Delay Time When AC Power Failed:    [250]  Sec.
System Shutdown Delay Time When Battery Low:        [25]  Sec.
Turn off UPS after System Shutdown: YES
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The Com Addr Connectted With UPS : 0x3f8
Interval of  warning :  [5] Sec
======

Unfortunately, the source tarball is not provided so I can't build it
for my NAS.
The binary package requires some new libraries (libc.so.6):

ldd PowerD

        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00000000)
        libc.so.6 => not found (0x00000000)
        libc.so.0 => /lib/libc.so.0 (0x00000000)
        /lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 => /lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 (0x00000000)

Your UPS might be supported by the 'richcomm_usb' driver. It is most  
certainly not supported by the 'blazer_usb' driver.

Arjen,

I was able to connect to my UPS using 'richcomm_usb' driver.

Arjen,

thanks for your prompt reply!

can you please send us an upsc output?
Have you also tested for shutdown, and upsrw / upscmd supported data?

cheers,
Arnaud

Not really needed. The richcomm_usb driver supports only 'ups.status'  
since the UPS is essentially a glorified contact closure device.

Testing the shutdown function would be a really good idea. Note that  
it probably won't shutdown unless running on battery. There are no  
parameters which can be set and the driver doesn't support instcmds  
either.

Best regards, Arjen

Hi Arjen,
Right. No output for the following commands:
-------
upsrw sven
--
upscmd -l sven
Instant commands supported on UPS [sven]:
--------
Shutdown function (upsmon + upssched) works fine.

Thanks for your help!

Best regards,
Sergey
