Enhanced Console Server Enhanced Console Server ECS0016 FCC Compliance Statement This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital de- vice, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

  • Power Monitoring Using the Raspberry Pi
    2013 ASCUE Proceedings Power monitoring using the Raspberry Pi Robin M Snyder RobinSnyder.com [email protected] http://www.robinsnyder.com Abstract The Raspberry Pi is a credit card size low powered compute board with Ethernet connection, HDMI video output, audio, full Linux operating system run from an SD card, and more, all for $45. With ca- bles, SD card, etc., the cost is about $70. Originally designed to help teach computer science principles to low income children and students, the Pi has taken on a life of its own, with many online resources and projects that cover most everything one would want to do with a small low monetary cost and low battery power computer. This paper/session will present the Raspberry Pi and provide ideas of what it can do and how one can get started using it. The author has used Pi's for Internet data acquisi- tion/monitoring, cluster processing using more than one Pi, email notifications, and power monitoring. The particular focus example will be on UPS power monitoring and status using off the shelf Open Source software. The main software for the purpose of power monitoring is NUT, Network UPS Tools, whose goal is "to provide support for Power Devices, such as Uninterruptible Power Supplies, Power Distribution Units and Solar Controllers." Some background in the theory and practice of electrical power, surge protection, uninterruptible powers supplies, etc., will be provided. Introduction The Raspberry Pi is a credit card size low powered compute board with Ethernet connection, HDMI video output, audio, full Linux operating system run from an SD card, and more, all for $45.

  • NUT - Network UPS Tools NUT - Network UPS Tools
    2021/09/26 07:37 1/7 NUT - Network UPS Tools NUT - Network UPS Tools This guide explains how to install NUT on a client / server architecture with several clients accessing the UPS. NUT Server Installation 1. Installing the nut package, should add the nut user and group. If it doesn’t, you have to add those manually. sudo apt-get install nut 2. Make the USB-Device accessible by NUT lsusb output: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 051d:0003 American Power Conversion UPS 3. Create new udev rule sudo vim /etc/udev/rules.d/90-nut-ups.rules ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="051d", ATTR{idProduct}=="0003", MODE="0660", GROUP="nut" 4. Activate udevadm control --reload-rules udevadm trigger ups.conf [ups] driver = usbhid-ups port = auto pollonly desc = "ups" The label in the square brackets can be anything. It identifies the UPS to upsd and upsmon. Find your UPS model on the NUT hardware compatibility list and substitute the corresponding driver for usbhid- ups above. If your UPS isn’t listed, find similar ones. They probably use the same driver. If you have a USB-based UPS, you can leave the port as auto; it’s ignored. Note: if you are connecting a Synology NAS to your NUT setup, then the label in square brackets must be named ups. Bernard's Wiki - https://wiki.condrau.com/ 2021/09/26 07:37 2/7 NUT - Network UPS Tools Make sure that nut properly detects the UPS: # upsdrvctl start You should see something like the following: Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.2.2 Network UPS Tools: 0.29 USB communication driver - core 0.33 (2.2.2) Using subdriver: APC HID 0.92 Now, we need to configure upsd and upsmon.

Most of our UPSes have a serial port, which allows a computer running moni- toring software to receive status updates from the unit. This way, the host can shut down when the batteries of the unit run low. Because each of our UPSes have more than one server attached to them, we needed a centralized way to manage the UPSes and shut down all affected servers during an outage.
