Hi there !

I have a Phasak 400 VA ( PH 9940 ) ups, that i wold like to connect to my FreeNas Box, went to the ups service, selected it from the list changed the port to /dev/ugen3.2 ( ive saw as i pluged in the usb connector on the serial console popped up that a ups was connected in that port ), changed the identifer to "ups" set the timer to "20", in the description "PH9940", ive posted to a print screen of my config.

So far so good, but, when i tried to enable the service, it couldnt start, ive managed to see what was going wrong on the console and ive discovered that the ups was reported as a "OMRON" with megatec driver

Code:
Oct 25 12:11:38 NAS root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x06da product 0x0003 bus uhub3
Oct 25 12:11:38 NAS kernel: ugen3.2: <OMRON> at usbus3
Oct 25 12:11:38 NAS kernel: uhid0: <OMRON USB UPS, class 0/0, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2> on usbus3


So ive managed to google arround and do some deep search in the forum, and ive discovered that this ups must use a blazer_usb driver, went to the aux. parameter and add the driver = blazer_usb line, used chmod 777 /dev/ugen3.2, start up the service and... same problem, tried to select a megatec_usb driver and still the same.

Code:

Does anybody has the same kind of problems ? Some other UPS like Mustek should have this kind of issues :S

Im using FreeNAS-8.0.2-RELEASE-amd64 (8288) , with a AsRock A330 GC.

Thank You !

This page suggests using the blazer_ser driver with the Phasak 400VA - presumably that's via RS232. Any luck?

Nop, nothing.. did the same procedure with the RS232 cable, ive looked up at bios and the port was okay, then ive pluged up to a windows machine, and poped up on the winpower software... :S so the cable was okay.. cant see why Freenas doesnt connect to it :S
