Clarifications, based on apcupsd 3.14 and AP9617 FW version 3.7.3:
- The DEVICE password in apcupsd.conf needs to match the "Authentication Phrase" in UPS->PowerChute->configuration
- The IP address of the host that is running apcupsd must be added to "PowerChute Network Shutdown Clients" in UPS->PowerChute->clients
- I have two SmartUPSs, one feeding each redundant power supply. I used the multiple UPS Example in the manual, but did not null-configure the shutdown scripts, so that either UPS failing would initiate a shutdown. Unfortunately, it seems the PCNET port number cannot be changed, and both apcupsd instances want to bind it.
