    Setting up NUT with a UPS

    I am trying to configure NUT to communicate with a Mecer ME600BK UPS connected via a serial cable to a standalone machine on what I assume is ttyS1. To be sure I have also tried on ttyS0 (locked by another process) and ttyS2 with a similar output as given below. I have followed the how-to:

    http://blog.shadypixel.com/monitorin...-ubuntu-linux/.

    I can find nothing on the subject in these forums.

    After configuration, when I enter the command:

    sudo upsdrvctl start

    I get this:

    Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.1
    Network UPS Tools - Megatec protocol driver 1.6 (2.4.1)
    tcgetattr(/dev/ttyS1): Input/output error
    Driver failed to start (exit status=1)

    When I set the configuration to use ttyS0 I am told this port is locked by another application.

    When I enter the command

    sudo upsdrvctl stop

    I get this response:

    Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.4.1
    Can't open /var/run/nut/megatec-ttyS1.pid: No such file or directory

    Any suggestions?
