NUT add-on configuraton problem

Third party integrations
8

December 2022 - and I’m finally restoring the NUT add-on to my Home Assistant system. For the benefit of other CyberPower UPS users, the following is my NUT add-on configuration YAML:

- config: []
  driver: usbhid-ups
  name: cyberpower1500
  port: auto
  mode: netserver
  upsd_maxage: 25
  upsd_pollinterval: 15
  upsd_pollonly: "enabled"

Now waiting the prescribed 20 or 30 minutes to see if this finally resolves the stale data issue. THANK YOU for all the information in this thread and on Github.

Over an hour later - nope. :frowning:

added the YAML line

  pollonly: "enabled"

and restarted - let’s see what happens . . . a day later, and pollonly: enabled made it work properly! :grinning:
