Thanks for the search term. Mine was not nearly as concise.

Yes, it's confusing - ES, CS, LS, RS at apc.com, but mine is definitely
an XS. The documentation pamphlet that is enclosed says it's for the
RS\XS 1200 and RS\XS 1500. It appears the only difference between the RS
and XS series is that the RS comes with in\out surge protector jacks for
an Ethernet cable.

Thanks for this link. I think this will be my solution.
Thanks also to all the others who responded.
