Hello Community,

I am strugling with APC SmartUPS SC420I and apcupsd.
The UPS is connected via usb-to serial adapter and 940-0024E cable.

The UPS is recognized as "Back-UPS Pro 280" instead of SC420I and the line voltage is displayed as 120V instead of the real 230V.

UPSTYPE apcsmart
DEVICE /dev/ttyUSB0

Has any of  you experienced like this and know how to fix at least the line voltage value?

Maybe it would be better to try "nut-server" which could have a better apcsmart driver implementation?
I have APC SmartUPS SC1500I with similar setup, USB-to-COM adapter and self-made APC UPS Smart cable and it is working fine with nut-server, both monitoring and control.

Another thing to check could be an usb-to-serial adapter. I've seen some cheap low-quality adapters which were created with counterfeit ICs.
