Create udev rule
For consistent naming let us create a udev rule
Create or Modify /etc/udev/rules.d/50-ups.rules (Update 0764 and 0501 with your Vendor and Product id)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0764", ATTR{idProduct}=="0501", SYMLINK+="ups0", GROUP="nut"
Notify udev of changes
udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger
Setup LISTEN address
Modify /etc/ups/upsd.conf and add following
LISTEN 192.168.101.253 3493
LISTEN 127.0.0.1 3493
LISTEN ::1 3493
Create UPS entry
Modify /etc/ups/ups.conf and add following
[cybersmart]
driver = usbhid-ups
port = /dev/ups0
Create user for UPS
Modify /etc/ups/upsd.users and add following (set you password)
[upsuser]
password = myups123
upsmon master
actions = SET
instcmds = ALL
