Description
Hello, If possible I would like to ask for support for an ASCO power transfer switch.
The device is for transferring power from commercial power to a backup generator on power failure and back.
Aside from the usual power stuff. The main features that would be needed are to know if the switch is on calling for commercial power and getting it or calling for generator (what it calls emergency) power and weather it is getting anything or if the generator has failed to start.
I understand that this is a new kind of device and maybe outside what you would call Network equipment.
I have attached the Mibs, Walk, and 2 Logos. I can also provide snmp access to the device (read only) if needed.
Thank You,
Robert

Hello Adam,
Thank you for looking at this and adding the detection.
Is there any documentation for writing those definitions?
Thanks,
Robert
Adding support for this device would be pretty time consuming, because it has a lot of single oids, and it's not likely to be used by any other users.
I've added basic detection and logos, but I'd recommend using the custom oid function for any data you want from this device (or write definitions for the device's OIDs and we can include those).
We only have limited resources for adding new device support.
There isn't really documentation for this at present, but examples exist in includes/definitions/mibs/
There isn't currently a file or a definition for the mib yet, but I can add that. Adding individual sensors is fairly straight forward, but pretty time consuming.
It wasn't clear if the device was just populating every possible OID, or if all of the OIDs being returned were actually in use, since a lot of them were just zero.
includes/definitions/mibs/netio.inc.php provides a fairly simple example of adding a few power-related sensors.
