I've used the cable I found in the box with the APC BackUPS Pro 650. After a
little experimenting I found that the option cable=3D940-0095B work with the
apcsmart driver, i.e. put the following in the ups.conf file:
[Back-UPS_PRO_650]
driver =3D apcsmart
port =3D /dev/cuaa1
cable =3D 940-0095B
and then modify the startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d to:
#!/bin/sh
if [ "x$1" =3D "xstart" ]; then
env - su ups -c '/usr/local/libexec/nut/apcsmart -a Back-UPS_PRO_650'
env - su ups -c '/usr/local/sbin/upsd'
env - /usr/local/sbin/upsmon localhost
env - su ups -c '/usr/local/bin/upslog localhost /var/log/ups.log 300'
elif [ "x$1" =3D "xstop" ]; then
/usr/bin/killall upslog upsmon upsd apcsmart \
&& echo -n 'upslog upsmon upsd apcsmart'
fi
I'ce created the user and group ups to run the demon processes.
