APC/apcd

[adavis@saipan.com]

I am posting regarding the recent thread about APC interface software, in
particular apcd.  Does your package deal with the APC Back-UPS Pro?  I
recently purchased one of these, and my explorations have brought to light
that this system uses a different language than the APC Back-UPS to talk
back and forth with the PC.  

I wanted to mention that the developer of the package apcuscd has made an
effort to include code that works with the Back-UPS Pro, in the package
apcupsd-2.5.  He has forwarded a copy, but I haven't yet been able to test
it.  Soon, if all goes well.

The cable with the APC Back-UPS Pro 280 is black.
I would appreciate any further information about whatever software is
available.
