Hello!

Im new with netdata and want to add a snmp UPS.

I can reach the UPS with snmpwalk and have the UPS aleready added into a nagios.

I have tried to edit the switch example in the snmp conf, but i seem to make an mistake somewhere, because nothing appears in the webgui after i restartet the netdata service.

Config(bit messy):

And ckecking the logs:

If the read.go:71 means line 71 its the marked, commented out line in the config.

Is it possible to “translate” every oid types?  
There are for example batterystatus which are numbers from 1 to 4 whch are in nagios translated via certain files distributed by the manufacturer.

Thank you for your help again!
