      Hat tip to @scolby33 for his original post about devd rules.

      This post specifically applies to the Japan market Omron BW55T and BW120T UPS which I have personal experience with. These products are not natively supported by nut on any distro (FreeBSD or Linux) as far as I can tell.

      I trust that the info here can be modified easily for other Omron products with a little thought.

      cat /usr/local/etc/devd/nut-usb-omron.conf 
      # This file is derivative of a file generated and installed by the Network
      # UPS Tools package.
      # 
      # It was copied from the original, and edited as needed.
      
      # Omron BW55T - blazer_usb
      notify 100 {
      	match "system"		"USB";
      	match "subsystem"	"DEVICE";
      	match "type"		"ATTACH";
      	match "vendor"		"0x0590";
      	match "product"		"0x00d0";
      	action "chgrp uucp /dev/$cdev; chmod g+rw /dev/$cdev";
      };
      
      # Omron BW120T - blazer_usb
      notify 100 {
      	match "system"		"USB";
      	match "subsystem"	"DEVICE";
      	match "type"		"ATTACH";
      	match "vendor"		"0x0590";
      	match "product"		"0x00d2";
      	action "chgrp uucp /dev/$cdev; chmod g+rw /dev/$cdev";
      };
      

      Configuration for 'ups.conf' which can be applied in the pfSense admin GUI:

      [BW55T]
              driver = blazer_usb
              port = auto
              subdriver = ippon
              vendorid = 0590
              productid = 00d0
              desc = "Omron BW55T"
      	default.battery.voltage.high = 13.6 
      	default.battery.voltage.low = 11.0
      
      [BW120T]
      	driver = blazer_usb
      	port = auto
      	subdriver = ippon
      	vendorid = 0590
      	productid = 00d2
      	desc = "Omron BW120T"
      	default.battery.voltage.high = 27.3
      	default.battery.voltage.low = 23.5
      

      In my case restarting the devfs service and unplugging/plugging my device did not load the new rules. I needed to reboot.
