      Problem solved but there is still work to do for the pfsense team.

        This is the quirk issue I mentioned in the prior post. It is actually not pfSense, but upstream FreeBSD that manages the default quirks.

        You will have to develop and test a quirk. It cannot be done without possession of the physical UPS. After you have developed the quirk, we can file a ticket with upstream to request that it added to FreeBSD.

          you could involve Riello technical support because I believe the problem is with all Riello UPS models.
          Once the quirk has been developed on a specific Riello UPS model, does it then work with all Riello models? or should a quirk be developed for each model?

            @Unoptanio Depends upon the manufacturer. For most, I think it is for a series of UPSs. APC for instance has only had 3 of them.

            See this post for detailed information.

              Hello all,

              i can confirm that like this works on mine side too with rather old SEP2200. All it needed is extra argument user = root.

              So, NUT package needs some tweaking not to work at root privileges i guess?

              At least we manage to connect UPS to device. many thnx! Finally some progress on this subject.

              Cheers!

                yeah, that was short live; I got initial data, an next refresh interval it says UPS need attention.

                It looks, for me, did it once and stopped. This log is since NUT is actually started. And its filling it constantly. But it looks that reading data because i see load changes.

                UPS Status.png Widget.png

                I have multiple USB units and all of them acting totally same.

                Anyone have any thoughts about this?

                It looks it works, but that error bugs me. Is it conflicting maybe, dropping connection,... ?

                Thanks in advance.

                    Sorry guys for spamming subject, but im trying to troubleshoot issue. I noticed that driver sees my ups in

                    Summary status: On line, Bypass, Charging

                    Is it possible that driver sees it as some sort of error because its in bypass mode and notifies about it?

                    And its not spamming disconnect in log anymore. But notice stays. Refreshing fine too. Actually it works, but notice is there and i dont dare to turn on mail notification in case of spamming error.

                    If more data is needed i will provide.

                    Thanks

                      hi,

                      i have generated a Quirk for Riello VST1100

                      https://forum.netgate.com/topic/183961/nut-package-2-8-1-and-above/15?_=1699613439488

                      I also own UPS Riello Sentinel Pro 2200 and Riello Sentinel Dual SDU 6Kw.

                      As soon as I have time I'll check if the quirk also applies to this other UPS or if it has a different one

                        test in progress

                        I disconnected the USB cable from the Riello VST 1100 UPS and connected it to the USB port of the Riello Sentinel Pro 2200. On pfsense everything works in the UPS panel

                        Quirk for Riello VST1100 also works on Riello Sentinel Pro 2200

                        What parameter configuration do you recommend setting in the other text boxes?

                          Did you encounter issue as i did? That it works actually but print error like on pictures above? And actually i dont have anything NUT related in logs anymore. It works, but error persist.

                          Any chance to get that upsmon.conf line txt formatted for copy paste? Please:)

                          Cheers!

                            do we have different versions of pfsense and nut?
                            Try another USB cable that isn't too long

                              @Unoptanio You should remove all the NOTIFYFLAG lines from the Additional configuration lines for upsmon.conf. Notification flags are automatically handled with Enable notifications. If you look in the actual generated configuration files, you will see that they are duplicates.

                                  @ha11oga11o The error you are showing above indicates that you are missing a quirk. See my post "Notes on USB quirks" and @Unoptanio's post "for my RIELLO model Vision VST1100" in the NUT Support thread.

                                        @Unoptanio said in NUT with Riello Sentinel Pro 2200 USB connection cant make it work:

                                        then reboot with reroot

                                        I would generally recommend performing a "Normal" reboot. I have not tested adding quirks with the "reroot" approach.

                                          The first time I start pfsense the riello Sentinel PRO 2200 doesn't work for me.

                                          Then it starts working after I press on "restart service"

                                            @Unoptanio Btw, you probably want to remove the debug_min now that you are done with USB diagnostics.
