UPS Firmware version

[oscar munoz_1]

Before I install a patch the patch notes say that I must get the firmware version fo the UPS.
I edited the /etc/uucp/Devices file to add a line: "Direct tty0p1 - 1200 direct".

At the unix prompt I issued the following command: cu -l tty0p1

It takes you to a blank screen and I have to type V and it gives me the version number but I can't get out of the device.

How can I get out? everything I type gives me ??.

Oscar,

Try "~." or "~.." without quotes.

The cu command is terminated by entering the "~." sequence. Man cu for details.
