This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the metasys driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).

The metasys driver was written with the "Meta System UPS Protocol Rev.1.12" kindly supplied from Meta System.

The driver should support all the common features of the ups models:

HF Line (/2) 1-8 boards
HF Millennium (810, 820)
HF TOP Line (910, 920, 930, 940, 950, 970, 980)
ECO Network (750, 1000, 1050, 1500, 1800, 2000, 2100, 2500, 3000)
ECO (305, 308, 311, 511, 516, 519, 522, SX, SXI)
ally HF (800, 1000, 1250, 1600, 2000, 2500)
Megaline (1250, 2500, 3750, 5000, 6250, 7500, 8750, 10000)

The needed cable is a standard pin-to-pin serial cable with at least pins 2, 3, and 5 (on DB9 connector) connected.

This driver supports no extra arguments from ups.conf(5).

This driver has been tested on Meta System HF Millennium 820 and ally HF 1000 only.

Any information about the use of the driver with the other listed UPS are really welcome.
