Dear friends,

I installed NUT and followed all suggested procedures to
verify if my ups is supported.
No driver recognized my ups, and the genericups tests
get wrong.

Here I send some informations about it:
The ups model is APC BZ1200-BR
I use Ubuntu, and the lsusb results

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices
International, Ltd FT232 USB-Serial (UART) IC

for ups.

The command usbhid-ups -DDDDD -a ups returned

Will this ups be supported by NUT?
