Add warning for 3016 TrippLites #3

Closed patrickfuller closed 4 years ago

patrickfuller commented 4 years ago

From here, it looks like UPSs with product code 3016 are temperamental. May even have a different API not supported by this library.

We should specify what versions we support in the README and warn/error in the code if used otherwise.

@patrickfuller could you give me some hints about how you discovered details about the API? I'd like to see if I can get 3016 devices working, and if I can, would like to contribute code to your tool to support it.

@tomammon I emailed TrippLite customer service and got this pdf. It's not perfect but was enough to get me started.

Thanks muchly!
