Supported? UPS Tecnoware ERA LCD 850VA/595W

[aleatorvb]

I have a couple of UPS Tecnoware ERA LCD 850VA/595W laying around at work.
Would these work with Freenas ?
I can't install a freenas to test until the end of the week.

Thank you for your time and any information you have.

This is a known issue. It defaults back to some other random UPS that happens to use the same driver as the one you selected. It has no effect on functionality. It's just an aesthetic annoyance. See bug tickets #2009, #1544 and others.

Also when i try to start it..

About all i can suggest is trying other drivers by selecting other UPS's that use different drivers. I eventually found a driver (usbhid-ups) that worked even though it was not listed as being the right driver to use for my UPS.
