NAME
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
belkin - Driver for Belkin serial UPS equipment
|
|
|
|
NOTE
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the
|
|
belkin driver. For information about the core driver, see
|
|
linkman:nutupsdrv[8].
|
|
|
|
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
The *belkin* driver is known to support the Regulator Pro 525 (F6C525-SER).
|
|
Other similar models such as the 425 and 625 should also work.
|
|
|
|
The Trust UPS and older Belkin units are not supported.
|
|
|
|
This driver only supports serial connections. If your UPS has a USB port,
|
|
please consult the Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) to see which of the USB
|
|
drivers you should use.
|
|
|
|
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
This driver does not support any extra settings in the
|
|
linkman:ups.conf[5].
|
|
|
|
BUGS
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
There are dragons lurking within the protocol to this UPS. I have one
|
|
that essentially behaves like a glorified power strip due to some
|
|
invasive probing on my part. Don't mess with it directly.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: the driver doesn't go anywhere near these character sequences,
|
|
so it won't zap your UPS. I only mention this here as yet another
|
|
reminder of the perils of closed hardware.
