I have a windows 10 PRto running HS 2 Pro, trying to get it to recognize my APC Smart-UPS 700 with a serial port on it.
I have the proper signaling cable, and I tried using it first with a USP adapter then moving it to my only serial port.
no matter what I do I can't get BLUPS to recognize there is a UPS attached. I even tried another UPS, an APC Back-JUPS 500 with a serial port.
nothing. so finally I plugged it into a laptop running Win 10 and downloaded the Powerchute software and it sees it and does everything it should on the laptop.
What am I missing on the HomeSeer computer? I don't want to install PowerChute on it just to delete it but does it need something installed in Windows, or HS, or the plug-in ?
thanks in advance for any help.
