Introduction
The software support for OpenUPS contains four modules:
1. Windows OS built-in driver support
2. Windows Configuration software (OpenUPS Configuration)
3. Windows System monitor (OpenUPS Tray Monitor)
4. Windows Monitor API + Visual Studio project
1. Windows OS built-in support
The OpenUPS implements two generic USB classes, therefore most of the
operating systems are recognizing it without any additional driver installation. This two
classes are:
a.) "HID UPS Battery" for OS built-in communication.
Microsoft Windows versions are recognizing this class automatically and the device should
appear in device manager at Batteries as a "Hid ups battery", together with all settings and
power plan possibilities provided by the OS for any battery.
b.) "HID" for communication and configuration
This endpoint is a generic HID and it is used by our configuration and monitor softwares to
read/write voltages and other important parameters of the OpenUPS
