battery support. Now I’m looking over the serial protocol. I can essentially make it anything I want, and it’s VERY tempting to make my own protocol that is intuitive and simple, but I have a feeling every UPS maker does that. So, before I do that…is there
a good, simple, robust protocol in use in multiple UPS’s out there that is somewhat well documented that I could support instead? It would probably make integrating NUT/serial easier as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">I looked at what seemed to be some generic serial drivers in NUT, but the commands supported and response patterns didn’t
make a lot of sense to me….though I’m not sure how much it really matters if the serial protocol is “readable” to a human.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
