.SH "NAME"
liebert \- Driver for Liebert contact\-closure UPS equipment
.SH "NOTE"
.sp
This man page only documents the hardware\-specific features of the liebert driver\&. For information about the core driver, see \fBnutupsdrv\fR(8)\&.
.SH "SUPPORTED HARDWARE"
.sp
This driver supports some Liebert UPS equipment with a contact\-closure interface\&. This includes the UPStation GXT2 with their contact\-closure cable\&. The smart mode ("Multilink") cable is not supported by this driver\&.
.SH "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"
.sp
This driver does not support any extra settings in the \fBups.conf\fR(5)\&.
.SH "BUGS"
.sp
This driver does not yet support shutdowns by raising DTR\&. Be aware that shutdowns are not possible with the stock contact\-closure cable\&. You may have to build another cable with DTR connected through to the UPS for it to work\&.
.sp
There is no way for this driver to detect the hardware or cable\&. It will start up successfully even if no UPS is present\&. This is a fundamental limitation of any contact\-closure driver\&.
