NAME
microsol-apc - Driver for APC Back-UPS BR UPS equipment
SYNOPSIS
microsol-apc -h microsol-apc -a UPS_NAME [OPTIONS] Note This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the microsol-apc driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
This driver supports the following UPS models: • APC Back-UPS BZ1500-BR • APC Back-UPS BZ2200I-BR • APC Back-UPS BZ2200BI-BR In 2009, Schneider Electric acquired Microsol Technologies, and by 2012, the entire Microsol line was being sold under the APC brand. This driver supports these newer, APC-branded models. Older equipment should use solis(8).
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver support the following extra optional settings in the ups.conf(5). battext=n Default = 0, no extra battery, where n = Ampere*hour. prgshut=n Default = 0, no programmable shutdown; 1 to enable one.
COMMANDS
shutdown.return Shut down in .3 minutes and restart in .3 minutes after that. shutdown.stayoff Shut down in .3 minutes and do not return.
ISSUES
For other APC-Microsol models, the reported voltages, currents and power will be incorrect, as the communication protocol reports unprocessed data instead of real values, needing model-specific post-processing by the driver. Monitoring of UPS state (on-battery/on-line, critical battery) should work for other models, but is untested.
