Ups Atlantis Land and software Upsilon2000
I have debian testing.
I have installed Ups Software "Upsilon 2000".
Communication port is serial port and not usb.
When I try to start demone, in the console there is this message:
the manual is written in case of error:Code:UPS Adapter No Response!!, type [upsilon stop] to stop this process
and other:Code:Trouble Shoot the Communication Port What to do when a "UPS adapter no response" message appears after running UPSilon. (Linux OS was used as an example). Please refer to the system documentation if you do not have the same Unix system as serial port setup procedures may vary from system to system. 1. Make sure no other process uses the same serial port. 2. Turn off function 'getty' of the serial port. For Linux OS, check the file ‘/etc/ttytab’ for the line below, and change ”respawn” to ”off”: ttya:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 9600 ttys0 Execute this command if you modified the ‘/etc/ttytab’ file. This will force an initial process that closes and re-opens the terminals. kill -1 1 3. Change the file permission of ‘/dev/ttya’ chmod 666 /dev/ttya
Code:$ dmesg | grep tty [ 0.000000] console [tty0] enabled [ 0.718712] serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A [ 0.718943] 00:09: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A

Hello and welcome!
From the manual you posted:
Debian's system getty file is /etc/inittab. To edit the file in a GUI text application, open a terminal and enter (as root):For Linux OS, check the file ‘/etc/ttytab’ for the line below, and change ”respawn” to ”off”: ttya:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 9600 ttys0
Or in the console or a terminal with an editor application (nano, vi) (as root):Code:# gedit /etc/inittab
For more information, open a terminal and enter (as user):Code:# nano /etc/inittab
Code:$ man inittab

But don't work.
If I push alt+ctrl+F1 the console is blocked.

The F1 console is blocked because it is turned off:I hace modified the red line.

I think you want a terminal getty... below the 6 user consoles in /etc/inittab:For Linux OS, check the file ‘/etc/ttytab’ for the line below, and change ”respawn” to ”off”: ttya:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 9600 ttys0
# Example how to put a getty on a serial line (for a terminal)

#T1:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 9600 vt100

Beyond pointing you to the inittab file and the 'ttyS0 9600' line for serial communication, I cannot help. There may be others here who can. If you have the option of using another application, you might want to check out the UPS monitoring packages in the Squeeze repo (with the package manager)... upsd, apcupsd, nut and a few others. I checked the Upsilon 2000 manual and I think you will find better and more up-to-date Linux documentation from the repo applications.I must uncomment the red line?
