User Reviews

  • For a very long time now you cannot get line voltage, load or temp so it has become just a way to shutdown your device rather than monitor it. I have 12 1500 series UPS and only 2 ( the oldest) can actually give all the information in multimon or apcaccess. I guess this is dead and I should look into what NUT has to offer
  • The package itself doesn't provide the reason for its invocation in its system-wide announcements. Consequently, I'd like an answer to forums.opensuse.org/t/apccontrol-doing-usr-sbin-apcupsd-killpower-on-ups-without-ups-connected/168626 but there's no official discussion space, and anyone who thinks normal people are going to bother to use mailing lists are kidding themselves.
  • Running on a Windows10 machine with x2 APC Back-UPS's. To start, you have to take the time to read all of the docs and do some testing until you get familiar with how it operates. But once you do, there is no limit to what you can accomplish by executing your own scripts for different events. I've automated everything. I'm glad I found this, thanks to the developers!
  • very good, but on macOS Mojave every day i see a warning for next os relases. need to update.
  • Sadly the 3.14.14 version has never been packaged up for Linux systems. Need to build it yourself :( It works really well, but I need the update as it has a bug fix I need.
