With regard to the UPS monitoring, you would use something like NUT for that: <http://www.networkupstools.org/> With that, you can ask for all kinds of information about the state of the UPS, including line voltage, etc. (depending on the features of the UPS of course). Note that I use NUT on Linux. I don't know if it runs on Windows, but as you didn't mention your OS, I'm just taking a guess :-) I can't answer about whether your specific sensor chips are supported by libsensors, so I'll leave that for someone else to answer. > > I've run sensors-detect, and I get back ... > > Driver `coretemp': > * Chip `Intel Core family thermal sensor' (confidence: 9) > > Driver `ipmisensors': > * ISA bus, address 0xca8 > Chip `IPMI BMC KCS' (confidence: 8) > > Driver `i5k_amb': > * Chip `Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor' (confidence: 9) > > Does either ipmisensors or i5k_amb support voltage type statistics?
