===Introduction===
 
Apcupsd can be used for power management and controlling most of APC's UPS models on Unix and Windows machines. Apcupsd works with most of APC's Smart-UPS models as well as most simple signalling models such a Back-UPS, and BackUPS-Office. During a power failure, apcupsd will inform the users about the power failure and that a shutdown may occur. If power is not restored, a system shutdown will follow when the battery is exhausted, a timeout (seconds) expires, or runtime expires based on internal APC calculations determined by power consumption rates. Apcupsd is licensed under the GPL version 2.

These installation instructions make some additional modifications for SME. They have been tested on SME 7.5 and an APC SmartUPS 1500i with both a usb and a 940-0024C smart serial cable. They have also been tested with an AP9617 Network Management Card using both the ''snmp'' and ''pcnet'' UPSTYPE drivers'
