Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

I've restarted the Mini, unplugged and plugged again the cable, doesn't work.
Even in the AppleProfiler doesn't comes up as a USB device!
Same cable as with the 10.6.8

Do you know how to uninstall it?

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

So, it seems so, the UPS isn't even recognized by a PC.
Tried a different cable, nothing.

I've pressed the "TEST" button on it, still doesn't appear as a USB device.

Seems to be the UPS. Strange.

Does one know if possible to reset it, or should I unplug all cables and let her run empty?

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

What model UPS is it? Most have a detachable battery pack (and if it's a lead battery draining it completely can damage the battery pack)

Computer says no.

durosity, it's a APC BackUPS BX700U.
It's a compact one, as far as I know you can pull out the batteries.

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

looks like there's a battery connector on the back.. disconnect from mains then pull that pin, plug it back in again a few mins later and try again. Hopefully reset whatever's stopping the USB port from working.

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

durosity, it works again!!! :lol:

Indeed, your idea was GREAT!
I've unplugged everything and pulled out the small battery latch, connected everything back, installed the software again, works!

Thanks a lot!

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

Worked great!
But I have 2 APCAgents running apparently (2 icons), w/ separate settings (polling interval and so on) but "Start at login" affects them both. Strange... Both is the same version (3.14.14) I hade this before, wonder what went wrong.

EDIT: I had added an extra monitor by mistake, removing them all and restart of apcagent fixed the problem!

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

Curious if someone can give me an assist here? I finally got my UPS hooked up... only took me two years! Anyway, I would like to monitor it via indigo. I've installed the latest APCagent software and it appears to be reading the UPS status properly, but I'm getting the following error from APCUPSD. Anyone have any ideas?

Re: APCUPSD Plugin discussion

@Dewster35,

Could you please tell me what version of the apcupsd Indigo plugin you have installed? The latest public version, 0.4.2, doesn't seem to match up to your log's line number 256 of plugin.py in runConcurrentThread. You can determine the version number by choosing Plugins -> apcupsd in the Indigo client, and then looking at the About apcupsd value there.

There is a "bad" logLevel reference in the public code that I have fixed in an upcoming version, but you shouldn't be seeing it.
