Jumping in on this, please forgive me. I got an APC UPS (don't recall the exact model) with a serial connection. What kind of cable should be used (straigt, crossed or special)? I _GUESS_ nothing will burn if I try the wrong type, but if I knowing the cable to be the right one would make it easier to find why things don't work (in case it don't). Regards, Emil
