Trying to setup my UPS (APC BX700UI)

I’ve been trying to set up my UPS. I did have it set up via my Synology NAS, but decided that I wanted it setup directly on my HA host system… I have followed this post but Im getting errors when starting the nut addon and the service is stopped.

What does your config look like? Are you able to see the ups via command line in HA?

I couldn’t see the UPS on the host, so I tried connecting it to my laptop and nothing… I decided to swap the cable, and it connected straight away :crazy_face:
