.SH "NAME"
tripplite_usb \- Driver for older Tripp Lite USB UPSes (not PDC HID)
.SH "NOTE"
.IX Header "NOTE"
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the
tripplite_usb driver.  For information about the core driver, see
\&\fInutupsdrv\fR\|(8).
.SH "SUPPORTED HARDWARE"
.IX Header "SUPPORTED HARDWARE"
This driver should work with older Tripp Lite UPSes which are detected as \s-1USB\s0
HID-class devices, but are not true \s-1HID\s0 Power-Device Class devices.  So far,
the devices supported by tripplite_usb have product \s-1ID\s0 0001, and the newer
units (such as those with \*(L"\s-1LCD\s0\*(R" in the model name) with product \s-1ID\s0 2001 require
the usbhid-ups driver instead.  Please report success or failure to
the nut-upsuser mailing list.  A key piece of information is the protocol
number, returned in ups.debug.0.  Also, be sure to turn on debugging (\f(CW\*(C`\-DDD\*(C'\fR)
for more informative log messages.  If your Tripp Lite \s-1UPS\s0 uses a serial port,
you may wish to investigate the \fItripplite\fR\|(8) or \fItripplite_su\fR\|(8) driver.
.PP
This driver has been tested with the following models:
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1INTERNETOFFICE700\s0
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1OMNISV1000\s0
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1OMNISV1500XL\s0 (some warnings)
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1SMART700USB\s0
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1SMART1500RM2U\s0
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1SMART2200RMXL2U\s0
.IP "\(bu" 4
\&\s-1SMART3000RM2U\s0
.PP
If you have used Tripp Lite's PowerAlert software to connect to your \s-1UPS\s0, there
is a good chance that \fItripplite_usb\fR\|(8) will work if it uses one of the
following protocols:
.IP "\(bu" 4
Protocol 0004
.IP "\(bu" 4
Protocol 1001
.IP "\(bu" 4
Protocol 2001
.IP "\(bu" 4
Protocol 3003
.SH "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"
.IX Header "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"
This driver supports the following optional setting in the \fIups.conf\fR\|(5) file
(or with \f(CW\*(C`\-x\*(C'\fR on the command line):
.IP "offdelay" 4
.IX Item "offdelay"
This setting controls the delay between receiving the \*(L"kill\*(R" command (\f(CW\*(C`\-k\*(C'\fR)
and actually cutting power to the computer.
.IP "bus" 4
.IX Item "bus"
This regular expression is used to match the \s-1USB\s0 bus (as seen in
\&\f(CW\*(C`/proc/bus/usb/devices\*(C'\fR or \fIlsusb\fR\|(8); including leading zeroes).
.IP "product" 4
.IX Item "product"
A regular expression to match the product string for the \s-1UPS\s0.  This would be
useful if you have two different Tripp Lite \s-1UPS\s0 models connected to the
system, and you want to be sure that you shut them down in the correct order.
.Sp
Note that this regex is matched against the full \s-1USB\s0 product string as seen in
\&\fIlsusb\fR\|(8). The \f(CW\*(C`ups.model\*(C'\fR in the \f(CW\*(C`upsc\*(C'\fR output only lists the name after
\&\*(L"\s-1TRIPP\s0 \s-1LITE\s0\*(R", so to match a \s-1SMART2200RMXL2U\s0, you could use the regex
\&\*(L".*SMART2200.*\*(R".
.IP "productid" 4
.IX Item "productid"
The productid is a regular expression which matches the \s-1UPS\s0 \s-1PID\s0 as four
hexadecimal digits.  So far, the only devices that work with this driver have
\&\s-1PID\s0 \f(CW0001\fR.
.IP "serial" 4
.IX Item "serial"
It does not appear that these particular Tripp Lite UPSes use the iSerial
descriptor field to return a serial number.  However, in case your unit does,
you may specify it here.
.PP
For more information on regular expressions, see \fIregex\fR\|(7)
.SH "RUNTIME VARIABLES"
.IX Header "RUNTIME VARIABLES"
.IP "ups.delay.shutdown" 4
.IX Item "ups.delay.shutdown"
This variable is the same as the \f(CW\*(C`offdelay\*(C'\fR setting, but it can be changed at
runtime by \fIupsrw\fR\|(8).
.IP "ups.id" 4
.IX Item "ups.id"
Some \s-1SMARTPRO\s0 models feature an \s-1ID\s0 that can be set and retrieved. If your \s-1UPS\s0
supports this feature, this variable will be listed in the output of \fIupsrw\fR\|(8).
.IP "outlet.1.switch" 4
.IX Item "outlet.1.switch"
Some Tripp Lite units have a switchable outlet (usually outlet #1) which can be
turned on and off by writing \f(CW1\fR or \f(CW0\fR, respectively, to \f(CW\*(C`outlet.1.switch\*(C'\fR.
If your unit has multiple switchable outlets, substitute the outlet number for
\&\*(L"1\*(R" in the variable name. Be sure to test this first \- there is no other way to
be certain that the number used by the driver matches the label on the unit.
.SH "KNOWN ISSUES AND BUGS"
.IX Header "KNOWN ISSUES AND BUGS"
The driver was not developed with any official documentation from Tripp Lite,
so certain events may confuse the driver. If you observe any strange behavior,
please re-run the driver with \f(CW\*(C`\-DDD\*(C'\fR to increase the verbosity.
.PP
So far, the Tripp Lite UPSes do not seem to have any serial number or other
unique identifier accessible through \s-1USB\s0. Thus, when monitoring several Tripp
Lite \s-1USB\s0 UPSes, you should use either the \f(CW\*(C`bus\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`product\*(C'\fR configuration
options to uniquely specify which \s-1UPS\s0 a given driver instance should control.
.PP
For instance, you can easily monitor an \s-1OMNIVS1000\s0 and a \s-1SMART1500RM2U\s0 at the
same time, since they have different \s-1USB\s0 Product \s-1ID\s0 strings. If you have two
\&\s-1SMART1500RM2U\s0 units, you would have to find which \s-1USB\s0 bus number each unit is
on (via \f(CW\*(C`lsusb\*(C'\fR), which may result in ambiguities if the available \s-1USB\s0 ports
are on the same bus.
.PP
Some of the SMART*2U models have an \s-1ID\s0 number, but because this \s-1ID\s0 is not
exposed as a \s-1USB\s0 string descriptor, there is no easy way to use this \s-1ID\s0 to
distinguish between multiple \s-1UPS\s0 units on a single machine.
