Note | This man page only documents the hardware-specific features of the masterguard driver. For information about the core driver, see nutupsdrv(8).

## NOTE

Please note that this driver is deprecated and will not receive new development. If it works for managing your devices — fine, but if you are running it to try setting up a new device, please consider the newer nutdrv_qx(8) instead, which should handle all Q* protocol variants for NUT.

Please do also report if your device works with this driver, but nutdrv_qx(8) would not actually support it with any subdriver!

## SUPPORTED HARDWARE

This driver supports Masterguard UPS equipment (serial connection only).

## EXTRA ARGUMENTS

CS

  Cancel the shutdown procedure.
