If you don't like the autodetected value, you can override this by setting it here.

model=value

Like manufacturer above.

Like manufacturer above.

VARIABLES

Depending on the type of your UPS unit, some of the following variables may be changed. If the driver can't read a variable from the UPS, it will not be made available.

input.transfer.high

writable: high transfer voltage point in V

input.transfer.low

writable: low transfer voltage point in V

battery.charge.low

writable: remaining battery charge percentage for low battery warning

output.voltage.nominal

writable: nominal output voltage in V

ups.coldstart
