Hi Kipp, some followup on the last mail. I have checked up the manual of the ups. on http://www.powerware.com/Products/end_of_life_Manuals.asp Powerware 9 Prestige Series User's Guide 600 VA-1800 VA.
To run it on LanSafe it should be set in printer mode, and the driver works like LanSafe. So check your communication settings on the ups.
