not sure, first time that I actually see that

the upsc output you have is more than limited, probably due to the EEPROM
issue (update: just realized that you truncated the output ; pleased send
in a complete listing).
you should have something like that:
http://networkupstools.org/ddl/Eaton/5P_650.html
the field you're looking for is "ups.firmware" (for ex 02.08.0016 in the
above dump)

Can NUT upgrade the firmware on this device? Eaton only seems to have

indeed, confirmed. Though we have code for other platforms, it's internal
only (/me still fighting to open more things...)

For now, I'm checking with our support and HW team to provide you with a
solution.
Have you done anything special or had anything special with the unit (can
help a lot to troubleshoot)?

Thanks and cheers,
Arno
