Support some more Legrand devices

[zykh]

This is to track the progress on the topic.
Reference: https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/nut-upsdev/2018-July/007392.html

• usbhid-ups: add new dedicated subdriver
• nutdrv_qx: support devices which don't terminate their replies with the expected CR (nutdrv_qx: support replies not terminated by the required CR #441)
• nutdrv_qx: add VID:PID to krauler USB subdriver
• metasys: add new devices + fix a few glitches
• update HCL
• update DDL (deferred to after release)
• get/publish protocol used by the new devices ('id code' >= 11) supported by the metasys driver: networkupstools/nut-website@570c1e5
• (possibly) get/publish protocol used by the devices ('id code' < 11) already supported by the metasys driver: networkupstools/nut-website@66d30c9

Anything else?

Current branch: https://github.com/zykh/nut/tree/issue-441+legrand_updated
(this is likely to cause some conflicts with the libusb branches, so I'd prefer to wait for #300 to be solved before rebasing and merging this one)

@zykh do you think this one can still go into 2.7.5 if we want to release now?

[zykh]

@aquette: sure, it's ready, but, as mentioned above, if 2.7.5 will contain one of the libusb branches, I'd prefer to (rebase and) merge this one after the libusb branch, to avoid possible conflicts there.

Hello together,
just bought a new Legrand KEOR PDU 800 and can't get it recognized by the drivers under version 2.7.4
I found compatibility (from 2016) with the KEOR Multiplug but I guess this was the previous Hardware version.
the new products seem to be different

Cheerz, Chris

Seems this support was added after the 2.7.4 release, and a 2.7.5 is sadly still pending. If you can try building from sources available on Github, you can confirm if that would support your device or some further work is needed.

Hi there, @greyslater I'm waiting for Keor 800 support too :)

[greyslater]

@jimklimov
unfortunately i can't but do we have any progress in general here on 2.7.5
as far as i understand @zykh already implemented it in the forked repository

[greyslater]

hi @nseries100 - i came upon all this because i connected the Keor 800 to a QNAP NAS and it's not recognized
found out that QTS (QNAP OS) uses NUT under the hood

[blecher-at]

Got this branch running on current master by resolving some of the conflicts.
removed metasys changes for now as there were too many conflicts, anything else built fine. (still need to figure out the metasys (don't have such a device), or split the issue

see PR #1075

after compiling (on my raspian) using the guide here https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/wiki/Building-NUT-on-Debian,-Raspbian-and-Ubuntu

./configure --includedir=/usr/include --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc/nut --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/lib/nut --srcdir=. --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-silent-rules --libdir=/usr/lib/$(gcc -print-multiarch) --with-ssl --with-nss --with-cgi --with-dev --enable-static --with-statepath=/var/run/nut --with-altpidpath=/var/run/nut --with-drvpath=/lib/nut --with-cgipath=/usr/lib/cgi-bin/nut --with-htmlpath=/usr/share/nut/www --with-pidpath=/var/run/nut --datadir=/usr/share/nut --with-pkgconfig-dir=/usr/lib/$(gcc -print-multiarch)/pkgconfig --with-user=nut --with-group=nut --with-udev-dir=/lib/udev --with-systemdsystemunitdir=/lib/systemd/system --with-usb --disable-dependency-tracking
and then overwriting the binaries
cp drivers/usbhid-ups /usr/lib/nut/usbhid-ups

i was able to have my Legrand KEOR PDU 800 report the variables. didnt test anything else yet.
what else needs to be done on this PR?

[reitermarkus]

My Legrand KEOR PDU 800 is also working (reporting values) with @blecher-at's updated branch.
