This depends on the driver. If the request for manufacturer
fails to return anything, it set's it to BELKIN.

This is OK.

Strange firmware number.

Is the rest of the upsc command OK ?
Like voltages, runtime, current, status e.t.c..

Yep, Sorry but I was referring to when you pull the mains, and
check if it goes to OB and if it signalling OB LB and start a
shutdown on your system. We need to know that the ups
is giving the right status to the driver.

Hmm, this is the way it should work.
And this is what happens when you do and FSD.
If the main's is failing it would go to battery. When the battery goes to
LB (Low Battery) it start to shutdown the system. Then it power of the ups.

It set the ups in something called shutdown.return. It power off the ups
to save the battery, then power it on when the main's return (after 
delay or charge level) So the computer should be set to 'last state' in
the bios for 'state after power loss'.

Don't hesitate to ask any questions on the list, we are here to help you get 
things going the way you whant.

We run many different dist's, think Arnaud is best on the Debian side.
I run Gentoo.
