Interesting to know. have you informed them that they would get support for mostly all OSs except windows (but they already support it)?<br>

yes, of course I did, but didn't get a reply to this part of my email.<br>
the guy I had contact with originally was on vacation, I'll contact him<br>

Now since you came with the first NUT supported SCD, I've made a src.rpm for you:<br>
<a href="http://opensource.mgeops.com/stable/sources/nut-2.4.1-8.1.src.rpm" target="_blank">http://opensource.mgeops.com/stable/sources/nut-2.4.1-8.1.src.rpm</a><br>

big tnx. rpmbuild works with this one! the one that I used had so many<br>
dependencies to other stuff like powerman etc. I managed to resolve most<br>
of these dependencies, but gave up later.<br>
<br>
there's a slight problem with the rpm %pre scripts when running rpm -i<br>
on the solar server:<br>
<br>
[root@helios tmp]# rpm -i nut-2.4.1-8.1.i386.rpm<br>
nut-client-2.4.1-8.1.i386.rpm<br>
usermod: invalid numeric argument 'dialout'<br>
error: %pre(nut-client-2.4.1-8.1.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 3<br>
error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping nut-client-2.4.1-8.1<br>
usermod: invalid numeric argument 'dialout'<br>
error: %pre(nut-2.4.1-8.1.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 3<br>
error: install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping nut-2.4.1-8.1<br>
<br>
I solved this by creating the group "dialout".<br>

and finally, here it is:<br>
<br>
[root@helios ups]# upsc ivtscd<br>
battery.current: -1.9<br>
battery.current.maximum: 2.2<br>
battery.current.minimum: -2.4<br>
battery.temperature: 16<br>
battery.voltage: 12.10<br>
battery.voltage.maximum: 14.02<br>
battery.voltage.minimum: 11.84<br>
device.mfr: IVT<br>
device.model: Solar Controller Device<br>
device.type: scd<br>
<a href="http://driver.name" target="_blank">driver.name</a>: ivtscd<br>
driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2<br>
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0<br>
driver.version: 2.4.1<br>
driver.version.internal: 0.02<br>
ups.status: OB<br>
<br>
the value of the current is off by about -1A, which also pulls the voltage down by about 0,5V or so.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>is that expected? remember that I've not followed the initial thread, nor had time to do so...<br>Arjen may have more to say about that.<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
hope that helps initially; I'll now dig deeper into the nuts configuration.<br></blockquote></div><br>happy to see the first NUT SCD working ;-)<br><br>cheers<br clear="all">Arnaud<br>-- <br>Linux / Unix Expert R&D - Eaton - <a href="http://www.eaton.com/mgeops">http://www.eaton.com/mgeops</a><br>
