Uninterruptable Power Supply. It's usually a small cube that's got a
battery supply. There's a serial port which you can connect to monitor
the internal state; in the ports, sysutils/upsd is one such monitoring
daemon that checks the state of APC Smart UPS boxes.

It sounds like you've installed one by mistake. Check /var/db/pkg and
pkg_delete the upsd_X.X.X package.
