Someone called Simon J. Gerraty has a bunch of stuff that might be of
some use.  I don't recall whether the BackUPS series are "smart
signaling" or "dumb signaling", but if they're the former, it likely
will work.

See http://www.quick.com.au/sjg/apcmon.html for more.  (In particular,
you may want to read .../sjg/apc.html, which documents the results of
some experiments I did.)
