.sp
This is a generic modbus driver expected to work with contact (direct) signal UPS devices, connected via modbus RIO (remote I/O) either serial or TCP/IP\&.
.sp
The driver has been tested against PULS UPS (model UB40\&.241) via MOXA ioLogikR1212 (RS485) and ioLogikE1212 (TCP/IP)\&.

The driver\(cqs concept is to map the UPS states (as defined in NUT) onto UPS contacts\*(Aq states\&. The driver has an extended configuration interface implemented using variables defined in ups\&.conf\&.
.SH "HARDWARE INTERCONNECTION"

The commission of modbus remote I/O server as well as UPS device is carried out following the corresponding instruction manuals\&. The following figure depicts the anticipated communication path and hardware interconnection:

.SH "INSTANT COMMANDS"
.sp
This driver support the following instant commands:
.PP
load\&.off
.RS 4
executes "instant poweroff"
.RE
.SH "INSTALLATION"
.sp
This driver is not built by default\&. You can build it by installing libmodbus and running configure \-\-with\-modbus=yes\&.
.sp
You also need to give proper permissions on the local serial device file (/dev/ttyUSB0 for example) to allow the run\-time NUT driver user account to access it\&.
.SH "OTHER NOTES"
.sp
The generic_modbus driver intends to support generic UPS devices with contact signals through modbus TCP/RTU gateways (also known as RIO \(em remote I/Os)\&. The data and signal path looks like this:
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
[UPSD] <\-\-\- IPC \-\-\-> [GENERIC_UPS] <\-\-\- modbus TCP/RTU \-\-\-> MODBUS\-RIO <\-\-\- contacts \-\-\-> [UPS DEVICE]
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.sp
On the other hand, you can setup any kind of modbus server, and configure the generic_modbus driver to connect and read or write specific registers\&. Your application / modbus server could then drive NUT statuses (e\&.g\&. OL, OB, HB etc) by writing over those registers\&.
