Its a rather old PCM Powercom UPS-1200-A I have tried the serial cables from a fenton UPS (green ones) and a black APC 940-0024C cable without success. Since the statserial output doesn't change, it must be some format of smart signal?
Possibly, or maybe it is an even weirder cable than those. Note that for contact closure UPSes, output lines from the PC could be required to see proper input signal transitions.
Where do I go from here, short of outright replacement?
If you can afford the downtime, you could poke around inside and trace the lines from the serial connector back to the circuitry.
