NAME
belkin - Driver for Belkin serial UPS equipment
NOTE
This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the
belkin driver. For information about the core driver, see
nutupsdrv(8).
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
The belkin driver is known to support the Regulator Pro 525
(F6C525-SER). Other similar models such as the 425 and 625 should also
work.
The Trust UPS and older Belkin units are not supported.
EXTRA ARGUMENTS
This driver does not support any extra settings in the ups.conf(5).
BUGS
There are dragons lurking within the protocol to this UPS. I have one
that essentially behaves like a glorified power strip due to some
invasive probing on my part. Don't mess with it directly.
Note: the driver doesn't go anywhere near these character sequences, so
it won't zap your UPS. I only mention this here as yet another
reminder of the perils of closed hardware.
