apcupsd is only suppose to work with APC's UPS's and the apcupsd developer will not deal with complaints about UPS's from other manufacturers. If your non-APC UPS works with apcupsd, then count yourself lucky. If you want to use another manufacturer's UPS, check out NUT (http://www.networkupstools.org/) to see if it will work with your UPS. One last thing, APC has changed their communications protocol (it's called microlink now) on new UPS's, so apcupsd doesn't work nearly as well as it used to.
