Thanks! We haven't updated the main website in a while, but we do have an entry for this UPS queued here: http://new.networkupstools.org/ddl/PowerWalker/VI_650_SH.html If you have problems with stale data, please see the discussion at issue #475. Is |

Sorry seems to have been a copy and paste error. Here is the output from FreeNas 11.0-U3 battery.charge: 100 Here is the output from FreeNas 11.0-U4 battery.charge: 100 And here for completeness the output from the PI running Armbian battery.charge: 100 All show driver.version.data Interestingly I didn't found the page for the VI 650 with google 😞 But good to know it is there.

We should probably clarify the information request on the compatibility webpage, but I think the part we're less sure about is whether the system can tell the UPS to power off after shutdown. (Usually the UPS-to-PC notification is pretty solid.) To that end, what commands are listed if you run Because new.networkupstools.org redirects to the Buildbot server, and apparently parsing robots.txt after redirects is still a hard problem, we had to restrict web crawlers from indexing that box. (They would try to download every single build log file, which is not terribly useful given how similar they are.) After the next release, I will look at setting up another hostname for the work-in-progress documentation so that it can be picked up by search engines again. |

Hi. Regarding your request for upscmd. I tried to run it in the FreeNas Console and I get a empty list. Also if I try to run this command from any client (PI) the upscmd -l returns an empty list. FreeNas output: PI output So I assume that either the standard config on FreeNas does not support sending commands to the UPS or it does not work. |

Sounds like the driver does not support any commands with that hardware.
It is possible to check for other commands that NUT has not implemented, but that might be tough with FreeNAS.
I have to do some research where FreeNas puts them because they are not in /etc/nut/....
/usr/local/etc/nut ? (that is where they end up in FreeBSD with the default ports tree configuration)

@clepple I have a similar UPS labeled "Syndome Atom LCD-1000". It has the same vid/pid and works only with |

@clepple Here it is: Then the last 4 lines are repeated continuously. |

@leshik you should try NUT v2.7.3 or later. |

@clepple Ok, here it is – but it doesn't change much: |

Ok, here it is – but it doesn't change much:
sorry, I meant to try "upscmd -l" with a newer version of NUT. There have been some fixes for that USB ID.

@clepple I tried, but no – the list is still empty. |
|
@clepple Is there anything else I can do to help troubleshoot the issue? |
|
Oh, I've rebuilt 2.7.4 with the patch that I made of a08a229 and it seems that it helped! So, the fixes for this VID/PID aren't in the release, unfortunately. |

My 5 cents. I own the same model: PowerWalker VI 650 SH. Debian 10, x86-64, nut deb 2.7.4-8 with updated drivers from git master (using this guide, only

I will be glad to provide any assistance for the proper support of this UPS. |

Hi. I just wanted to state that the PowerWalker VI 650 SH is not supported by the blazer_usb driver like other PowerWalker Produkts. It works with the usbhid-ups driver.
Tried it out to find the correct driver with a Raspberry PI 3.. Works fine (limited output though but the values like load, state etc. is correct).
Regarding FreeNas 11 it should work with any product that is supported by the usbhid-ups driver.
(still limited information but the crucial information is there)

Do not know if this should be considered as a issue, Maybe it could be used to update the compatibility list.
Best Regards
Stefan
