Powercom Imperial UPS success, anyone?

[Patrick M. Hausen]

Hi all,

I figured this model would have a good chance to work well with FreeNAS because the NUT HCL shows it all "green":
http://www.upspowercom.com/UPS-IMP.jsp

The device identifies like this:

Code:

ugen0.6: <POWERCOM Co.,LTD HID UPS Battery> at usbus0
uhid0 on uhub0
uhid0: <POWERCOM Co.,LTD HID UPS Battery, class 0/0, rev 1.10/0.02, addr 5> on usbus0

The driver I picked is Powercom ups 5 Imperial USB (2009 models, product id: 00a2) (usbhid-ups) with device /dev/uhid0.

But all I achieved so far is:

Code:

Broadcast Message from root@freenas-pmh.local                                 
        (no tty) at 18:51 CEST...                                             
                                                                              
Communications with UPS roline lost

All hints welcome.

Thanks,
Patrick
