[Nut-upsdev] nut-2.0.5 megatec + Online Xanto

[Henning Brauer]

good new first: the megatec driverin 2.0.5 now works with the Online 
Xanto S3000R here - well, for the very basics.

the UPS has NO way ofidentifying itself. It also does not respond to 
the power ratings query ("F"). I previously used a hacked up fentonups 
driver. This means the driver cannot figure out the battery voltage and 
thus no battery charge level, which is a problem in our setup.

it is a 96V unit. the values I had in fentonups.h were
+       { "XS3000R", "Online", "Xanto S3000R",
+               1.81, 0.44, 1.81, 0.44, 165, 200, 240, 275, 1 },
if there were a way to give the driver the desired voltage overriding 
the auto-detection, everything would work fine again...I had this 
hacked up for 2.0.3 at one point, but can't fine it right now. Carlos, 
didn't I mail hat before? in any case. does anyone have a better idea 
to solve this?
