NAME¶
mge-utalk - Driver for MGE UPS SYSTEMS UTalk protocol equipmentSYNOPSIS¶
mge-utalk -hSUPPORTED HARDWARE¶
mge-utalk supports the following legacy units, using the MGE UTalk protocol:Pulsar ESV+, Pulsar ES+, Pulsar EL, Pulsar EX, Pulsar EXtreme, Comet EXtreme, Comet (Utalk Serial Card, ref 66060), Galaxy (Utalk Serial Card, ref 66060).
EXTRA ARGUMENTS¶
This driver supports the following optional settings in the ups.conf(5): lowbatt=numSet the low battery warning threshold at which
shutdown is initiated by upsmon(8).
The factory default value is 30 (in percent), and can be settable depending on
the exact model.
offdelay=num
Set the timer before the UPS is turned off
after the kill power command is sent (via the -k switch).
The default value is 20 (in seconds).
ondelay=num
Set the delay before the UPS is turned on,
after the power returns.
The default value is 1 (in minutes).
oldmac
Set this flag if you are running Linux on an
Oldworld Macintosh box (all beige Apple Macintosh). This might also be needed
for other OSs (like *BSD) running on PowerMac.
KNOWN ISSUES¶
Repetitive timeout and staleness¶
Older models, such as ES/ESV ones, might report repetitive "data stale" errors. This is due to the fact that these models don’t support too much polling. To solve this problem, add "pollinterval=20" in ups.conf, and change the value of MAXAGE to 25 in upsd.conf, and DEADTIME to 25 in upsmon.conf.AUTHOR¶
