Since you have it working on Windows how feasible is it to sniff the
connection and reverse engineer the protocol. I think that it has been
done in the past when all else failed in getting documentation. I am
not sure how much of the existing driver is working and how much is
not but if it is not too many commands it may be worth a try. I know
wireshark has a USB sniffer built into the latest build.

Just a passing thought... and  like the wind it's gone.....

(I guess I haven't tested trying commands to turn it back on, but that's not so helpful if the controlling device is powered by the UPS.)
