Ok, I think it's working.
The problem was the serial cable.
I had 2, one came with the ups, the other came with another ups.
During my tests I changed the original cable with the other one.
I never changed it back, thinking they were exactly the same.
Now I changed it back and used the serial cabel that came with the ups
again.
So now we've got:

1. On powerline, so status OL

radius1:/etc/default# upsc ups_name at localhost
driver.name: genericups
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0
driver.parameter.upstype: 7
driver.version: 2.0.1
driver.version.internal: 1.30
ups.mfr: CyberPower
ups.model: Power99
ups.status: OL

2. I pulled the powerplug of the UPS, so OB

radius1:/etc/default# upsc ups_name at localhost
driver.name: genericups
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0
driver.parameter.upstype: 7
driver.version: 2.0.1
driver.version.internal: 1.30
ups.mfr: CyberPower
ups.model: Power99
ups.status: OB

3. I plugged the powerline back in, again OL :-)

radius1:/etc/default# upsc ups_name at localhost
driver.name: genericups
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0
driver.parameter.upstype: 7
driver.version: 2.0.1
driver.version.internal: 1.30
ups.mfr: CyberPower
ups.model: Power99
ups.status: OL
radius1:/etc/default#

I don't know if the ups will actually shutdown the system now on low
battery.
upsc ain't showing much information on the battery status here, but as far
as I remember
I've read somewhere in the docs that this is normal with genericups drivers,
not?
It's not the right time now to check if the system really is shutdown when
the battery is getting low.
(live system) I will test this asap and keep this list informed.


Many tnx
Yves
