.SH "NAME"
|

genericups \- Driver for contact\-closure UPS equipment
|
||||
.SH "NOTE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This man page only documents the specific features of the genericups driver\&. For information about the core driver, see \fBnutupsdrv\fR(8)\&.
|
||||
.SH "SUPPORTED HARDWARE"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This driver supports hardware from many different manufacturers as it only uses the very simplest of signaling schemes\&. Contact closure refers to a kind of interface where basic high/low signals are provided to indicate status\&. This kind of UPS can only report line power and battery status\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This means that you will only get the essentials in ups\&.status: OL, OB, and LB\&. Anything else requires a smarter UPS\&.
|
||||
.SH "CABLING"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Cabling is different for every kind of UPS\&. See the table below for information on what is known to work with a given UPS type\&.
|
||||
.SH "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
This driver supports the following settings in the \fBups.conf\fR(5):
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
upstype=\fItype\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Required\&. Configures the driver for a specific kind of UPS\&. See the
|
||||
UPS Types
|
||||
section below for more information on which entries are available\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
mfr=\fIstring\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Optional\&. The very nature of a generic UPS driver sometimes means that the stock manufacturer data has no relation to the actual hardware that is attached\&. With the
|
||||
mfr
|
||||
setting, you can change the value that is seen by clients that monitor this UPS\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
model=\fIstring\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Optional\&. This is like
|
||||
mfr
|
||||
above, but it overrides the model string instead\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
serial=\fIstring\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Optional\&. This is like
|
||||
mfr
|
||||
above and intended to record the identification string of the UPS\&. It is titled "serial" because usually this string is referred to as the serial number\&.
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
sdtime=\fIvalue\fR
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
Optional\&. The driver will sleep for this many seconds after setting the shutdown signal\&. This is necessary for some hardware which requires a sustained level to activate the shutdown sequence\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
The default behavior of the driver is to exit immediately\&. If this doesn\(cqt reliably trigger a shutdown in your UPS hardware, use this setting to give it more time to react\&.

||||

very large values for sdtime may create warnings from upsdrvctl if it gets tired of waiting for the driver to return\&.

|

.RE
|
||||
.SH "CUSTOM CONFIGURATIONS"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
You may override the values for CP, OL, LB, and SD by defining them in the \fBups.conf\fR(5) after the upstype setting\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
For example, to set the cable power to DTR and the low battery value to DCD, it would look like this:
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
.if n \{\
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
.\}
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
CP = DTR
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
.if n \{\
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.\}
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
.if n \{\
|
||||
.RS 4
|
||||
.\}
|
||||
.nf
|
||||
LB = DCD
|
||||
.fi
|
||||
.if n \{\
|
||||
.RE
|
||||
.\}
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Recognized values for input lines are CTS, DCD, and RNG\&. Recognized values for output lines are DTR, RTS, and ST\&. See below for more about what these signals mean\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
These values may be negated for active low signals\&. That is, "LB=\-DCD" recognizes a low battery condition when DCD is not held high\&.
|
||||
.SH "TYPE INFORMATION"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
The essence of a UPS definition in this driver is how it uses the serial lines that are available\&. These are the abbreviations you will see below:
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
OL
|
||||
.RS 4
|

|

.sp
|
||||
A "\-" in front of a signal name (like \-RNG) means that the indicated condition is signaled with an active low signal\&. For example, [LB=\-RNG] means the battery is low when the ring indicate line goes low, and that the battery is OK when that line is held high\&.

Many different UPS companies make models with similar interfaces\&. The RUPS cable seems to be especially popular in the "power strip" variety of UPS found in office supply stores\&. If your UPS works with an entry in the table above, but the model or manufacturer information don\(cqt match, don\(cqt despair\&. You can fix that easily by using the mfr and model variables documented above in your \fBups.conf\fR(5)\&.
|
||||
.SH "TESTING COMPATIBILITY"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
If your UPS isn\(cqt listed above, you can try going through the list until you find one that works\&. There is a lot of cable and interface reuse in the UPS world, and you may find a match\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
To do this, first make sure nothing important is plugged into the outlets on the UPS, as you may inadvertently switch it off\&. Definitely make sure that the computer you\(cqre using is not plugged into that UPS\&. Plug in something small like a lamp so you know when power is being supplied to the outlets\&.
|

Now, you can either attempt to make an educated guess based on the documentation your manufacturer has provided (if any), or just start going down the list\&.

|

Disconnect the UPS from the wall/mains power\&. This is easiest if you have a switched outlet in between it and the wall, but you can also just pull the plug to test\&. The lamp should stay lit, and the status should switch to "OB"\&. If the lamp went out or the status didn\(cqt go to "OB" within about 15 seconds, go to Step 1\&. Otherwise, continue to Step 4\&.
|
||||
.SS "Step 4"
|
||||
.sp
|

At this point, we know that OL and OB work\&. If nothing else beyond this point works, you at least know what your OL/OB value should be\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Wait for the UPS to start complaining about a low battery\&. Depending on the size of your UPS battery and the lamp\(cqs bulb, this could take awhile\&. It should start complaining audibly at some point\&. When this happens, STATUS should show "OB LB" within 15 seconds\&. If not, go to Step 1, otherwise continue to Step 5\&.
|

.SS "Step 5"

|

So far: OL works, OB works, and LB works\&.

With the UPS running on battery, run the genericups driver with the \-k switch to shut it down\&.

If the UPS turns off the lamp, you\(cqre done\&. At this point, you have verified that the shutdown sequence actually does what you want\&. You can start using the genericups driver with this type number for normal operations\&.
|

|

You should use your findings to add a section to your ups\&.conf\&. Here is a quick example:

.nf
|

port = /dev/ttyS0

upstype = 1

.fi
|

.if n \{\

Change the port and upstype values to match your system\&.

.SH "NEW SUPPORT"
|

.sp
|

If the above testing sequence fails, you will probably need to create a new entry to support your hardware\&. All UPS types are determined from the table in the genericups\&.h file in the source tree\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
On a standard 9 pin serial port, there are 6 lines that are used as the standard "high/low" signal levels\&. 4 of them are incoming (to the PC, from the UPS), and the other 2 are outgoing (to the UPS, from the PC)\&. The other 3 are the receive/transmit lines and the ground\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Be aware that many manufacturers remap pins within the cable\&. If you have any doubts, a quick check with a multimeter should confirm whether the cable is straight\-through or not\&. Another thing to keep in mind is that some cables have electronics in them to do special things\&. Some have resistors and transistors on board to change behavior depending on what\(cqs being supplied by the PC\&.

The Centralion CL series may power down the load if the driver starts up with the UPS running on battery as the default line settings contain the shutdown sequence\&. \- Neil Muller

The Tripp\-Lite Internet Office 700 must be used with the black 73\-0844 cable instead of the gray 73\-0743 cable\&. This entry should work with any of their models with the Lan 2\&.2 interface \- see the sticker by the DB9 connector on the UPS\&. \- Stephen Brown
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Type 5 should work with the Tripp\-Lite Lan 2\&.1 interface and the 73\-0724 cable\&. This was tested with the OmniSmart 675 PNP on Red Hat 7\&.2\&. \- Q Giese

Types 7 and 10 should both work with the PhoenixTec A1000\&.
|

.SH "BUGS"
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
There is no way to reliably detect a contact\-closure UPS\&. This means the driver will start up happily even if no UPS is detected\&. It also means that if the connection between the UPS and computer is interrupted, you may not be able to sense this in software\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
Most contact\-closure UPSes will not power down the load if the line power is present\&. This can create a race when using slave \fBupsmon\fR(8) systems\&. See the \fBupsmon\fR(8) man page for more information\&.
|
||||
.sp
|
||||
The solution to both of these problems is to upgrade to a smart protocol UPS of some kind that allows detection and proper load cycling on command\&.
