What software package are you using?
I have such ups myself and use the nut package. However Advice is not
willing to release the communication protocol. There fore, although
the nut has all the critical functionality implemented, there are some
missing parts.
In addition, my model (Partner/King PR750) has no direct indication
for the duration that the battery will last in case of a power failure.
I hope that the original poster will ask the sales persons not only
for Linux compatibility but also an openness of the communication
protocol.
