I made my own cable as per the doc's in upsd because I bought the UPS
used and it did not come with the cable. Making a cable is no big
deal, two connectors and two resistors (from any radio shack), and 4
wires. (Not hard if you know how to solder without burning yourself).
I havn't looked at any of the other packages you mentioned (maybe I
should) but upsd does get the job done with my castoff ups's.
