Try looking into your kernel log. I would suspect issues with the usbhid
kernel module.
This may help (depending on the kernel you are running):
rmmod usbhid && modprobe usbhid quirks=0x0463:0xffff:0x8

I've used NUT successfully for monitoring many different brands of
UPS, but this one has me stumped. It has the same manufacturer ID and
Product ID as older supported MGE-type Eaton UPS's, but has trouble
talking. I tried Ubuntu's repo NUT, and it logs a Connecting to UPS
message every few seconds forever, but never really succeeds (or says
it fails). Different failure mode after building latest NUT d/l, as
shown below. I have a udev rule in place, restarted udev and have
removed/replaced the USB cable.
I'll try to lay out all the info here up front. If this requires more
data for development, I'll do my best to provide it.
