Trying to get this to work, can't get it to connect to a Smart UPS w/ serial cable on COM1. How and where are you guys tweaking this file?

You can find the docs at
http://www.apcupsd.org/manual/manual.html
I recall a few settings to be changed, but I didn't give it a lot of attention, as I have USB APCs.

Post your UPS model.
If I'm not mistaken APC has 2 protocols that use serial connector, modbus is the newer and open protocol (preferred one).HW: HS3 w/ Win8.1 on ASRock C2550d4i.

No and that was it.
I had totally screwed up the file.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Now, on the the plugin itself. Can't get it to connect w/ apcupsd. Set the port to 3551, restarted the plugin but still reporting off line. apcupsd is connecting well. Thought I followed the pdf file directions. Guess I missed something.
Thanks to Jeff Farmer, the plugin is working. Despite me....Last edited by donstephens; May 16, 2015, 12:56 PM.Don
