<para>
The &knutclient; is the client graphics application for system NUT
"Network Ups Tools". It enables to watch the state of UPS and to show
values of variables which the choice UPS a its driver are supporting.
</para>

<para>
From version 0.6.0 &knutclient; supports the running of instant command and
enables the change of RW variables.
</para>
<para>
From version 0.9.0 &knutclient; doesn't support protocol UDP.

Main window is divided in two parts.
</para>
<para>

On line, on battery, overload,replace battery,battery low, calibration,runtime.
There are unchangeable dates in this panel, name of UPS, serial number,
manufactured. This dates are reading only once, when you UPS choose.
</para>
<para>
The right part includes analog panels. These panels show values of variables like
input voltage, load UPS, battery charge, UPS temperature,  battery voltage.
</para>
<para>
&knutclient; includes toolbar, with standard buttons and button for the UPS choice.

</para>

<para>
From 0.8.0 version &knutclient; docks in TDE panel. His icon is variable and shows
information about UPS load, runtime and the charge of battery, depending on type of icons is selected.

After moving the pointer of the mouse on the icon, information window "ToolTip" is showes up, 
which includes more information about UPS, Name, UPS name ,Address, State, Runtime ..
</para>

<sect1 id="knutclient-features">
<title>More KNutClient features</title>
<para>
For connecting with server side of NUT (upsd), &knutclient; uses protocol TCP.
When UPS is selected in toolbar, &knutclient; tries to read the data. When
reading fails, reading is repeated. The maximum count of repetitions is five.
Afterwards &knutclient; reads data in periodical sequences. The first reading
reads all variables, next reading reads variables that analog panels,
RUNTIME a state of UPS show only. Variables show UPS name, manufacturer, serial
number ... are read only once, because their changes aren't probable.
</para>

<para>
Errors which arise like answer from user actions are show in their own window.

      User changed variables are group of variables which  can be changed by the user.
      Majority of them are equal to setting of UPS. There are two types of user 
      changed variables, char or enumerated variables. Char variables are a string of
      chars with maximal length. Enumerated variables are a list of right values
