I have the question, since tthe development is nearly complete and only<br>
the microcontroller missing (I am searching the most suitable one)<br>

</div>Since I have a "24V DC modular ATX PSU" I have the question for the "n"<br>
in the outlet.<br>
<br>
The ATX PSU has 5 standard output voltages<br>
<br>
+12 V<br>
+ 5 V<br>
+ 3.3V<br>
+ 5 Vsb<br>
-12 V<br>
<br>
and someone can add up to 3 additional power modules to extend the PSU<br>
and can have any voltages (even mixed up on a singel module) like<br>
<br>
+12 V<br>
+ 5 V<br>
+ 3.3V<br>
+ 2.5V<br>
+ 1.8V<br>
+ 0.8V<br>
...<br>
<br>
This mean, I need a hierarchy separator but how to do?<br>
<br>
E.g. the standard one could be something like<br>
<br>
outlet.0.temperature: 63.6<br>
outlet.0.p12.current: 4321<br>
outlet.0.p12.current.maximum: 10000<br>
outlet.0.p12.realpower: 51<br>
outlet.0.p12.voltage: 11.8<br>
outlet.0.p12.voltage.nominal: 12.0<br>
outlet.0.p50.current: 4321<br>
...<br>
outlet.0.p33.current:<br>
...<br>
outlet.0.p5s.current:<br>
...<br>
outlet.0.n12.current:<br>
<br>
and for the three slots:<br>
<br>
outlet.1.p12.current:<br>
...<br>
outlet.2.p50.current:<br>
...<br>
outlet.3.p33.current:<br>
...<br>
<br>
I have prefixed the 3rd hierarchy with "p" for positive voltage and "n"<br>
for the negative voltage.<br>
<br>
Also I have the need for a "temperature" sensor per module as shown on<br>
the top of "outlet.0"<br>
<br>
Any suggestions?<br>
</blockquote><div><br>I'm not sure to fully understand your needs there, but since you will somehow be your only consumer (or let's rephrase this with "it's not for a large public market"), chances are that your driver and changes to NUT will be only available on your side (remember the GPL terms there).<br>
<br>So go ahead and do what you want here... <br>What has been done for the 3phases support in NUT might help you (check docs/new-names.txt)<br><br>about the outlet.0 (representing the whole device for a PDU, or all the outlets), this has just been renamed to "outlet". So that would be "outlet.temperature"<br>
<br>Others may have some more ideas.<br><br>cheers,<br></div><div>Arnaud<br></div></div>-- <br>Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - <a href="http://www.eaton.com/mgeops">http://www.eaton.com/mgeops</a><br>Network UPS Tools (NUT) Project Leader - <a href="http://www.networkupstools.org/">http://www.networkupstools.org/</a><br>
