victronups8

Driver for imv/victron ups unit match, match lite, netups

Usage

victronups -h

victronups -a UPS_NAME [OPTIONS]

Supported hardware

The victronups driver should recognize all Victron models that use a serial protocol at 1200 bps. These include Match Lite, Match and the NetUps line.

The Match Lite line may only report a handful of variables. This is usually not a bug — they just don’t support anything else.
