Thank you for your offer of some help.  I've tried to get some
information to help with figuring out the problem.

I thought it might work with megatec_usb because the serial version of
the USP works with the megatec according to the compatibility page:
http://www.networkupstools.org/compat/stable.html

I've tried blazer_usb as well, but it also does not seem to recognize it.

I've tried megatec_usb in debug mode, output below:
