Assuming that the usbserial port is working correctly (there have been issues with m8_cypress in some kernels in the past), it doesn't look like this device is speaking Megatec/Q1 protocol. If you upgrade NUT, you might also try out the blazer_ser driver, which also speaks some variations. But it might very well be something completely different. > I think that maybe, this version doesn't use the megatec protocol, maybe > some variation.

The old > version of this manufturer with serial interface uses megatec. Sniffing the output on a Windows box while monitoring the UPS might indeed help us finding out which protocol it uses. If you need instructions on how to do that (for either USB or RS-232 connections), search the archives.
