[Nut-upsuser] Belkin USB UPSes

I just bought a pair of Belkin USB UPSes -- F6C1200-UNV and F6C550-AVR --
and installed the latest version of nut under Ubuntu 7.04.  I'm using
the F6C1200-UNV.

My system does see the device; dmesg says

[   82.718428] usb 2-2: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2
[   82.941189] usb 2-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[   83.036825] usbcore: registered new driver hiddev
[   83.049102] hiddev96: USB HID v1.00 Device [Cypress Semiconductor USB to Serial] on usb-0000:00:02.1-2
[   83.049336] usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
[   83.049455] drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver

and lsusb says

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0665:5161

But documentation on how to configure these seems to be scanty to the
point of near-nonexistence.  The one example of a USB-based
configuration I found had a port entry using a convention for 
hiddev path names that Ubuntu doesn't recognize.

Does anyone have a similar setup and configuration tips?
