MICROSOL-APC(8)                   NUT Manual                   MICROSOL-APC(8)

NAME
       microsol-apc - Driver for APC Back-UPS BR UPS equipment

SYNOPSIS
       microsol-apc -h

       microsol-apc -a UPS_NAME [OPTIONS]

           Note

           This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the
           microsol-apc driver. For information about the core driver, see
           nutupsdrv(8).

SUPPORTED HARDWARE
       This driver supports the following UPS models:

       o   APC Back-UPS BZ1500-BR

       o   APC Back-UPS BZ2200I-BR

       o   APC Back-UPS BZ2200BI-BR

       In 2009, Schneider Electric acquired Microsol Technologies, and by
       2012, the entire Microsol line was being sold under the APC brand. This
       driver supports these newer, APC-branded models. Older equipment should
       use solis(8).

EXTRA ARGUMENTS
       This driver support the following extra optional settings in the
       ups.conf(5).

       battext = n - (default = 0, no extra battery, where n = Ampere*hour )

       prgshut = 1 - (default = 0, no programmable shutdown )

COMMANDS
       o   shutdown.return - Shut down in .3 minutes and restart in .3 minutes

       o   shutdown.stayoff - Shut down in .3 minutes and do not return

ISSUES
       For other APC-Microsol models, the reported voltages, currents and
       power will be incorrect, as the communication protocol reports
       unprocessed data instead of real values, needing model-specific
       post-processing by the driver. Monitoring of UPS state
       (on-battery/on-line, critical battery) should work for other models,
       but is untested.
