Hello Robert, Thank you spending your time to help me.
First of all, sorry if I didn't explain things correctly. I think there is a misunderstanding (I am French speaking) . I don't want BeagleBone to perform a shutdown during power outage. I want BBB running continuously like my VoIP PBX also based on BeagleBone Black. But I think, that in this later case, the developper used Ubuntu (neither Debian nor Angström). As these OS are official BBB OS, I prefer using them for my application. I am electrician, I don't really want to spend too much time on SW bugs as I am not skilled for that task. One word perhaps about the application: it is very simple. I must monitor mains power supply in different locations and have to log power outage events on a file with time stamps. I have also to log grid switching events ... The specialized 230V AC monitoring system has no Ethernet connection but can be associated with BBB GPIO's. So that log file could be downloaded when power outage is over. The problem is that, even with battery plugged in, the BeagleBone Black perform a self shutdown within 60 seconds after mains power off (5V DC power supply)... Hope my explanation is now better. Kind regards Michel. 2014-10-16 19:04 GMT+02:00 Robert Nelson <[email protected]>: > On Thu, Oct 16, 2014 at 12:00 PM, Michel Gerin <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Thank you for your quick reply. > > > > you wrote: > > > >> > >> No shutdown is a function of the SW.The SRM covers the hardware. > > > > > > OK, than I suppose that somewhere in the whole Debian package, a > routine > > is permanentely checking (polling) if 5V DC power supply is still "ON". > > When it is not the case an event is fired in order to start a clean > > shutdown procedure?
