- Hi,
- I think I posted this question a while ago, but I didn't have
- all the information. Well, now I do.
-
- I want to run a shutdown process whenever my UPS system signals
- the computer. It uses the serial port to signal a shutdown request.
- It uses DTYPE "9" (whatever that means). When there is a blackout
- it (shorts out I guess) pins 2, 4. And pins 4,5: 5 minutes before
- the battery runs out.
-
- If anyone knows how to handle this, please let me know.
-
- Thanks,
- Ori
