Missing a DB9 connector on the machine I have connected the two with a DB9->USB cable.
Something to be aware of is that many UPSes use a proprietary cable - a standard cable won't work with them. APC is notorious about being like that, but they're not alone. Double and triple check that the cable is wired properly.
Dear Jim, Thanks for the warning. Was something I long time ago knew but have forgotten in the meantime. Have for the time being unplugged the USB cable :) Regards, Constant -- Linux User 183145 using KDE4 and LXDE on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 12.3 (i586) Kernel: 3.7.10-1.16-default KDE Development Platform: 4.10.5 "release 1" 14:54pm up 15:23, 2 users, load average: 1.04, 1.00, 0.86 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
