First I would add NUT from packages, then follow:

through mostly everything you need to configure NUT to work with your
UPS.
I have this one: APC BACK-UPS 350. Although listed by my supplier as
available both in USB and Serial versions, it's USB cabling only and
comes with a US gift certificate for the serial cable, although when
asked APC Europe sent me one rather quickly. The 500 is, I suspect, the
same with a larger battery.
However, this week I backported nut 2.0.3 for this box to try and get it
up and running. It seems hidups/newhidups is linux only or at least not
built on OpenBSD and is the necessary driver for this :(
At least I can't get any communication with it, although I can't really
check my cabling as I'm 2000km away.
