NAME¶
belkin - Driver for Belkin serial UPS equipment
NOTE¶
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the belkin
driver. For information about the core driver, see
nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE¶
The
belkin driver is known to support the Regulator Pro 525 (F6C525-SER).
Other similar models such as the 425 and 625 should also work.
The Trust UPS and older Belkin units are not supported.
This driver does not support any extra settings in the
ups.conf(5).
BUGS¶
There are dragons lurking within the protocol to this UPS. I have one that
essentially behaves like a glorified power strip due to some invasive probing
on my part. Don’t mess with it directly.
Note
the driver doesn’t go anywhere near these character sequences, so it
won’t zap your UPS. I only mention this here as yet another reminder of
the perils of closed hardware.
