I own two different Tripp-lite UPS units (AVRX550U and OMNIVSX1000D) and recently I became fed up with the incessant beeping of the UPS when on battery power. Here is how I turned it off in FreeNAS.
- Go to Services -> UPS and enabled the UPS service.
- Click the pencil to edit the service details and setup your UPS (I won't go into those details since there are plenty of write-ups).
- In the "extra users" field of the UPS service details enter the following (feel free to change the password to whatever you want it to be:
Code:
[root] password = mypass actions = set actions = fsd instcmds = all
- Click save then stop and restart the UPS service.
- Click Shell (on the menu panel).
- Type "upscmd -l [UPSNAMEHERE]" [ENTER]. This will give you the list of acceptable commands for your UPS.
- For my device "beeper.disable" was the command I wanted.
- Type "upscmd [UPSNAMEHERE] [COMMAND]" [ENTER]. It will ask you for your username and password. Use "root" and the password you set above. you should get an "OK" response.
