Lately I got (used) an APC Back UPS Pro 1000 and Back UPS NS 1080. I got an

though looks just like the Pro.
There are a few different angles we can approach this one from. What error message do you
get from usbhid-ups, and what does "lsusb -d 051d:" show?

Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.4

Maybe it's not a standard ethernet-to-UPS cable?
Here are the APC USB IDs that the latest NUT code recognizes:
https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/blob/master/drivers/apc-hid.c#L87-L92
I don't really understand that section...
(Unless you have rebuilt from the latest Git sources, your packages are
probably older, and may not include all of these IDs.)
