The SmartUPS v/s is a slightly different beast than a SmartUPS and upsd didn't work out of the box because of a number of subtle differences. The v/s is mostly a dumbed down version of the SmartUPS, but some differences tripped up upsd. For example, the number of bytes returned for some of the "info" things like firmware, copyright, and such are different which throws subsequent polls out of whack. An option for variable length command results would be helpful here (unless I it is already there and I just missed it!) > Ask majordomo@ww.net for the upsd mailing list.
