Dear Maintainer,

After varying amounts of time, sometimes as much as 24 hours and
sometimes as little as 1 minute, usbhid-ups loses contact with my APC
ups. This triggers warnings like:

  Broadcast message from nut@<host> (somewhere) (Mon Apr 20 13:47:43 2015):

  UPS apc@<host> is unavailable

Every six minutes until I restart nut-server at which point it will be
fine for a while and then start warning again. I never experienced this
issue when running the same ups on amd64 based hardware.

thanks

Could you please check /var/log for information from usbhid-ups around the
time that you get the "UPS is unavailable" notification?

If there are no log messages, you might need to run usbhid-ups in gdb to
determine why it is disconnecting. Email if you need additional details.
