BELKIN(8)                         NUT Manual                         BELKIN(8)



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.
