NUT wont work with Siemens Masterguard A1000 UPS
Hello.
I've got Siemens Masterguard A1000 UPS connected via USB to Raspberry Pi with Raspbian. The UPS is listed in lsusb as:
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 06da:0002 Phoenixtec Power Co., Ltd UPS
I've installed NUT and put the following ups.conf file
Code:
[masterguard]
driver = bcmxcp_usb
port = auto
I checked with NUT's compatibility list and see that the driver I'm supposed to use is masterguard but it's written for serial connections only. I found on the net that I may use either the bcmxcp_usb or the blazer_usb drivers, but I have troubles with both.
When I use the bcmxcp_usb driver, I've got the following error when I run upsdrvctl start:
Code:
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.4
Network UPS Tools - BCMXCP UPS driver 0.26 (2.6.4)
USB communication subdriver 0.21
Communications with UPS lost: Error executing command
Could not communicate with the ups: Operation not permitted
CLOSING
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
And when I use the blazer_usb driver, I get the following error:
Code:
Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.4
Network UPS Tools - Megatec/Q1 protocol USB driver 0.08 (2.6.4)
Can't claim USB device [06da:0002]: could not detach kernel driver from interface 0: Operation not permitted
Driver failed to start (exit status=1)
I tried to see what's going on when the host tries to communicate with the UPS using the following command: /lib/nut/blazer_usb -DDDD -a masterguard -u root and I see the following:
Code:
Network UPS Tools - Megatec/Q1 protocol USB driver 0.08 (2.6.4)

This goes on and on..
I am really confused. Does anyone around here have any idea on how to proceed?
Thank you in advance for your help, it's much appreciated.
