Carlos (and all concerned),

To my shame I have to admit that I left the upsd software in
a kind of unfinished state about three years ago. There is no
documentation or manual, and certain things could have been
more flexible. Even worse, I do not really know anymore any
details about the upsd.

As far as I remember it should work with all the APC UPSes which
support SmartUPS protocol. The only difference from model to
model is the values of ups settings.

What you should do is find out the values for your model, by
experiment and hard code your model into apc-static.c file
(As far as I remember again)

Yes, I know there probably should have been a simple utility to
test ups and collect all the values and store them into config
file automatically, and there should have been documentation etc

Perhaps somebody will pick it up, but personally I will not have
to do that. Besides I also do not have access to the equipment
anymore.

Good luck,

Alexis
