Panicked configuration trying to get a shutdown to automate while the power is off. Should be most helpful for Debian linux.
nut-scanner detects the device!
Add the output to a new device in /etc/nut/ups.conf and remember to exclude the bus = "00X" line in case the usb id changes. Some overrides were necessary to have settings persist.
Set MODE=standalone in /etc/nut/nut.conf
Add a MONITOR line in /etc/nut/upsmon.conf
Add a user to /etc/nut/upsd.users
Mind the security!
upsc someups@localhost
Change the battery.charge.low and battery.runtime.low lines. 120s wasn't enough when the battery was already depleted and was going a lot faster than expected.
upsrw -s battery.charge.low=15 -u upsmon someups@localhost
upsrw -s battery.runtime.low=180 -u upsmon someups@localhost
To make permanent, add something like these to the device in /etc/nut/ups.conf.
override.battery.charge.low = 20
override.battery.runtime.low = 300
