Still, I can't understand why the serial cable I'm using on 1 APC model works fine but if I use that same cable on another (identical) APC then it shuts down immediately. (I double-checked model name and serial numbers behind the UPS devices) Anyway, I'll try to get the official serial cables just to rule out wiring issues.
Oh, same cable from another identical UPS that works. Try resetting that UPS; it goes something like this: Unplug, disconnect the batteries, and press/hold the buttons to make sure the ups is completely dead. Does that help?
