Overall, I have NO idea how the Utility ramped up the voltage like that (bizzar) and I've asked for more info. Anyway, the graph is pretty cool though something is really bothering me. Where is the "UPS LOAD" line? It isn't the "magenta" line as that is the BattV line. (I'm working on moving the graph key to some other spot on the graph). Here is some of the data I'm getting from that 700VA SmartUPS using APCUPSd: -- Jan 18 08:59:40 vesta last message repeated 2 times Jan 18 08:59:46 vesta apcupsd[605]: 123.5,124.8,124.1,27.74,60.00,100.0,36.0,,,124.1 Jan 18 08:59:53 vesta apcupsd[605]: 123.5,124.1,123.5,27.74,60.00,100.0,36.0,,,123.5 Jan 18 08:59:59 vesta apcupsd[605]: 122.2,124.1,124.1,27.74,60.00,100.0,36.0,,,124.1 Jan 18 09:00:06 vesta apcupsd[605]: 123.5,124.1,124.1,27.74,60.00,100.0,36.0,,,124.1 Jan 18 09:00:12 vesta apcupsd[605]: 123.5,124.1,124.1,27.06,60.00,100.0,36.0,,,124.1 Jan 18 09:00:17 vesta apcupsd[605]: Power failure.

Is this a firmware issue on the 700? Is there a set of commands I can use to possibly configure the UPS to give me this output or at least confirm that it cannot give me these details? Ps. At the top of the APCUPSd log, you can see that SYSLOG surpressed a duplicate line. Do you know if there is a way to disable this? Overall, it obviously won't change the graph output but it might be a good thing to tell my users about. --David ----------------- This was a bug. It is fixed in 3.9.8.
