ok, I see why: currently, there are few values that are not mapped due to
the boolean mechanism used in usbhid-ups to process (either outvolt or
outfreq or nothing).
these values are commented in the code (your unit is currently reporting "5
=> self test"):

/* these input.transfer.reason can't be mapped at the moment... */
    { 3, "ripple", NULL },        /* Ripple */
    { 5, "self test", NULL },    /* Self Test or Discharge Calibration
commanded
                                 * Test usage, front button, or 2 week self
test */
    { 6, "forced", NULL },        /* DelayBeforeShutdown or
APCDelayBeforeShutdown */
    { 10, "forced", NULL },        /* Graceful shutdown by accessories */
    { 11, "self test", NULL },    /* Test usage invoked */
    { 12, "self test", NULL },    /* Front button initiated self test */
    { 13, "self test", NULL },    /* 2 week self test */

adding support for these would means changing some more code, and I'm not
sure it's forth just for reporting the above...

moreover, the data you reported are not coherent: considering the log file,
LASTXFER should have the value "Self Test" and not "Low line voltage"...

just to be sure, apart from transfer.reason, everything is equivalent to
apcupsd?
btw, what is that eeprom thing in apcupsd? is it equivalent to upsrw?

cheers,
Arnaud
