Hi,

what type of cable am I supposed to put into apcupsd.conf for an UPS
which is connected to a remote computer and monitored over the network?


Hi Lee.

I have two machines powered by one UPS. M1 controls UPS over USB cable, M2 is neighboring machine.

/etc/apcupsd/apcupsd.conf on M1 contains:
        UPSCABLE usb
        UPSTYPE usb
        DEVICE
        ...
        NETSERVER on
        NISIP <M1_ip_address_here>
        NISPORT 3551
        ...
/etc/apcupsd/apcupsd.conf on M2 contains:
        UPSCABLE ether
        UPSTYPE net
        DEVICE <M1_ip_address_here>:3551
        ...
        NETSERVER on
        NISIP 127.0.0.1
        NISPORT 3551
        ...

This setup works for me. M1 and M2 does correct shutdown on power fail.
Maybe this helps.
