pfSense 2.8.1, NUT 2.8.2_5 package, EcoFlow UPS
-
I have a new EcoFLow Delta3 Plus UPS which has USB HID function. Unfortunately pfSense and the NUT package are unable to see it. I was previously using a CyberPower UPS, which worked without issue.
According to the NUT Compatibility List, The EcoFlow Delta 3 Plus is supported using the usbhid-ups driver. FreeBSD appears to be able to see the USB HID device, but isn't doing anything with it.
I tried running the driver using user=root to see if it was a USB quirk issue, but even then it doesn't seem to be detected.
Running usbconfig -v results in the following output regarding the UPS:
ugen2.2: <EcoFlow EF-UPS-DELTA 3 Plus> at usbus2, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps ) pwr=ON (100mA) ugen2.2.0: uhid0: <EcoFlow EF-UPS-DELTA 3 Plus, class 239/2, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2> ugen2.2.1: umodem0: <EcoFlow EF-UPS-DELTA 3 Plus, class 239/2, rev 2.00/1.00, ad dr 2> bLength = 0x0012 bDescriptorType = 0x0001 bcdUSB = 0x0200 bDeviceClass = 0x00ef <Miscellaneous device> bDeviceSubClass = 0x0002 bDeviceProtocol = 0x0001 bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040 idVendor = 0x3746 idProduct = 0xffff bcdDevice = 0x0100 iManufacturer = 0x0001 <EcoFlow> iProduct = 0x0002 <EF-UPS-DELTA 3 Plus> iSerialNumber = 0x0003 <*redacted*> bNumConfigurations = 0x0001Running usbconfig -d ugen2.2 show_ifdrv shows the following:

Running nut-scanner I get:
Scanning USB bus. No start IP, skipping SNMP Scanning XML/HTTP bus. No start IP, skipping NUT bus (old connect method) Scanning NUT simulation devices. Scanning NUT bus (avahi method). Error sending Eaton <SCAN_REQUEST/> to <broadcast>, #1/3 Failed to create Avahi client: Daemon not running Error sending Eaton <SCAN_REQUEST/> to <broadcast>, #2/3 Error sending Eaton <SCAN_REQUEST/> to <broadcast>, #3/3NUT does not appear to be able to "see" the UPS.
According to the USB quirks and NUT thread, there should only be 1 "ugenX.X" line when detatching the kernel driver. Could this be the issue? Anyone have any ideas?
Running the usbhid-ups driver in debug mode shows the following for the UPS:

EcoFlow is new, and I don't believe that support is present in 2.8.1. I believe support was introduced Circa 2.8.3.

I think you're right.

Is there a way to upgrade NUT to a newer version in pfSense?

I expect it will be updated in the next pfSense release cycle.
