It looks like the BNT-other defaults were updated after 2.4.3, specifically to address the BNT-1500AP. I think you can just add the following "BNT-other" values to ups.conf:

You might also need an explicit "type = BNT-other" (which I think is no longer needed in the latest version).

If not, we can try recompiling the powercom driver.
