Hm, looks strange.
Have you updated your svn copy to have your UPS in the list of known
devices?
I can only suggest to try running

megatec_usb -a <ups_name>

(with some -D options probably) to ensure that it does the same thing as
upsdrvctl...

The worst thing is that '-D' option of upsdrvctl doesn't actually
show debug info...
