that's for certain Smart-UPS models with RJ-50 which do carry RS-232 bus in 
that connector

Dear All,

 

Well for the moment I have this cable left over at home:

I thought this should be possible to use.

Hi,

what serial adapter? This device does not use any kind of the old-style 
serial (RS-232 or 485) bus, but USB (Universal Serial Bus), or voltage 
signalling (you don't want that). Throw it away and connect the UPS directly
to some USB port, the first table here shows correct pinout: https://
pinoutguide.com/UPS/apc_usb_cable_pinout.shtml

You should than have usb in the config file of apcupsd, I believe.

Dear,

 

Yes i have tried , but I think my serial to usb adapter could be a problem. 
I need to investigate this more. 

But I was just wondering if it would be possible and if you can have DATA on
windows, it would indeed also work on Linux. 

 

Thank you.

Hi Pieter,

I have a Back-UPS CS-350 but it is monitored through the Windows 
implementation of apcupsd.
It's using the standard 10-pin-RJ to USB cable that came with the UPS.

I can't think of any reason that it wouldn't work on Linux if a package is 
available.
Have you tried it?
