That's not really an error, but a warning. The way to get rid of it is
by using the "battvolts" option in upsd.conf. Just check the manpage
for more details ("man 8 megatec").

To get the values required, just let the UPS charge completely. Then,
run "megatec -DDD -a yourups > somefile.txt", unplug the UPS from
mains and let it discharge until it shuts itself down (it must be
powering something, but probably not your computer...).

Then, from the file, you can obtain the battery voltage when the UPS
was fully charged (from the first line in the file) and the battery
voltage when the UPS was fully discharged (from the last line in the
file).

Finally, send those values to me, so that I can add them to that
model's entry in the compatibility list.
