I'm trying to get apcupsd to work with my Ups (APC Back-UPS 700VA) with my server running Debian 9 stretch but can't connect to ups and get this when I run:

rene@odroidxu4-share:~$ sudo apcaccess status

[sudo] password for rene:

UPSNAME smartups750



# UPSCABLE <cable>

#   Defines the type of cable connecting the UPS to your computer.

#

#   Possible generic choices for <cable> are:

#     simple, smart, ether, usb

#

#   Or a specific cable model number may be used:

#     940-0119A, 940-0127A, 940-0128A, 940-0020B,

#     940-0020C, 940-0023A, 940-0024B, 940-0024C,

#

UPSCABLE usb



# To get apcupsd to work, in addition to defining the cable

# above, you must also define a UPSTYPE, which corresponds to

# the type of UPS you have (see the Description for more details).

# You must also specify a DEVICE, sometimes referred to as a port.

# For USB UPSes, please leave the DEVICE directive blank. For

# other UPS types, you must specify an appropriate port or address.

#

# UPSTYPE   DEVICE           Description

# apcsmart  /dev/tty**       Newer serial character device, appropriate for 

#                            SmartUPS models using a serial cable (not USB).

#

# usb       <BLANK>          Most new UPSes are USB. A blank DEVICE

#                            setting enables autodetection, which is

#                            the best choice for most installations.

#

# net       hostname:port    Network link to a master apcupsd through apcupsd's 

#                            Network Information Server. This is used if the

#                            UPS powering your computer is connected to a 

#                            different computer for monitoring.

#

# snmp      hostname:port:vendor:community

#                            SNMP network link to an SNMP-enabled UPS device.

#                            Hostname is the ip address or hostname of the UPS 

#                            on the network. Vendor can be can be "APC" or 

#                            "APC_NOTRAP". "APC_NOTRAP" will disable SNMP trap 

#                            catching; you usually want "APC". Port is usually 

#                            161. Community is usually "private".

#

# netsnmp   hostname:port:vendor:community

#                            OBSOLETE

#                            Same as SNMP above but requires use of the 

#                            net-snmp library. Unless you have a specific need

#                            for this old driver, you should use 'snmp' instead.

#

# dumb      /dev/tty**       Old serial character device for use with 

#                            simple-signaling UPSes.

#

# pcnet     ipaddr:username:passphrase:port

#                            PowerChute Network Shutdown protocol which can be 

#                            used as an alternative to SNMP with the AP9617 

#                            family of smart slot cards. ipaddr is the IP 

#                            address of the UPS management card. username and 

#                            passphrase are the credentials for which the card 

#                            has been configured. port is the port number on 

#                            which to listen for messages from the UPS, normally 

#                            3052. If this parameter is empty or missing, the 

#                            default of 3052 will be used.

#

# modbus    /dev/tty**       Serial device for use with newest SmartUPS models

#                            supporting the MODBUS protocol.

# modbus    <BLANK>          Leave the DEVICE setting blank for MODBUS over USB

#                            or set to the serial number of the UPS to ensure 

#                            that apcupsd binds to that particular unit

#                            (helpful if you have more than one USB UPS).

#

UPSTYPE usb

DEVICE



# POLLTIME <int>

#   Interval (in seconds) at which apcupsd polls the UPS for status. This

#   setting applies both to directly-attached UPSes (UPSTYPE apcsmart, usb, 

#   dumb) and networked UPSes (UPSTYPE net, snmp). Lowering this setting

#   will improve apcupsd's responsiveness to certain events at the cost of

#   higher CPU utilization. The default of 60 is appropriate for most

#   situations.

POLLTIME 60



# LOCKFILE <path to lockfile>

#   Path for device lock file. This is the directory into which the lock file

#   will be written. The directory must already exist; apcupsd will not create

#   it. The actual name of the lock file is computed from DEVICE.

#   Not used on Win32.

LOCKFILE /var/lock



# SCRIPTDIR <path to script directory>

#   Directory in which apccontrol and event scripts are located.

SCRIPTDIR /etc/apcupsd



# PWRFAILDIR <path to powerfail directory>

#   Directory in which to write the powerfail flag file. This file

#   is created when apcupsd initiates a system shutdown and is

#   checked in the OS halt scripts to determine if a killpower

#   (turning off UPS output power) is required.

PWRFAILDIR /etc/apcupsd



# NOLOGINDIR <path to nologin directory>

#   Directory in which to write the nologin file. The existence

#   of this flag file tells the OS to disallow new logins.

NOLOGINDIR /etc





#

# ======== Configuration parameters used during power failures ==========

#



# The ONBATTERYDELAY is the time in seconds from when a power failure

#   is detected until we react to it with an onbattery event.

#

#   This means that, apccontrol will be called with the powerout argument

#   immediately when a power failure is detected.  However, the

#   onbattery argument is passed to apccontrol only after the 

#   ONBATTERYDELAY time.  If you don't want to be annoyed by short

#   powerfailures, make sure that apccontrol powerout does nothing

#   i.e. comment out the wall.

ONBATTERYDELAY 6



# 

# Note: BATTERYLEVEL, MINUTES, and TIMEOUT work in conjunction, so

# the first that occurs will cause the initation of a shutdown.

#



# If during a power failure, the remaining battery percentage

# (as reported by the UPS) is below or equal to BATTERYLEVEL, 

# apcupsd will initiate a system shutdown.

BATTERYLEVEL 5



# If during a power failure, the remaining runtime in minutes 

# (as calculated internally by the UPS) is below or equal to MINUTES,

# apcupsd, will initiate a system shutdown.

MINUTES 3



# If during a power failure, the UPS has run on batteries for TIMEOUT

# many seconds or longer, apcupsd will initiate a system shutdown.

# A value of 0 disables this timer.

#

#  Note, if you have a Smart UPS, you will most likely want to disable

#    this timer by setting it to zero. That way, you UPS will continue

#    on batteries until either the % charge remaing drops to or below BATTERYLEVEL,

#    or the remaining battery runtime drops to or below MINUTES.  Of course,

#    if you are testing, setting this to 60 causes a quick system shutdown

#    if you pull the power plug.   

#  If you have an older dumb UPS, you will want to set this to less than

#    the time you know you can run on batteries.

TIMEOUT 0



#  Time in seconds between annoying users to signoff prior to

#  system shutdown. 0 disables.

ANNOY 300



# Initial delay after power failure before warning users to get

# off the system.

ANNOYDELAY 60



# The condition which determines when users are prevented from

# logging in during a power failure.

# NOLOGON <string> [ disable | timeout | percent | minutes | always ]

NOLOGON disable



# If KILLDELAY is non-zero, apcupsd will continue running after a

# shutdown has been requested, and after the specified time in

# seconds attempt to kill the power. This is for use on systems

# where apcupsd cannot regain control after a shutdown.

# KILLDELAY <seconds>  0 disables

KILLDELAY 0



#

# ==== Configuration statements for Network Information Server ====

#



# NETSERVER [ on | off ] on enables, off disables the network

#  information server. If netstatus is on, a network information

#  server process will be started for serving the STATUS and

#  EVENT data over the network (used by CGI programs).

NETSERVER on



# NISIP <dotted notation ip address>

#  IP address on which NIS server will listen for incoming connections.

#  This is useful if your server is multi-homed (has more than one

#  network interface and IP address). Default value is 0.0.0.0 which

#  means any incoming request will be serviced. Alternatively, you can

#  configure this setting to any specific IP address of your server and 

#  NIS will listen for connections only on that interface. Use the

#  loopback address (127.0.0.1) to accept connections only from the

#  local machine.

NISIP 127.0.0.1



# NISPORT <port> default is 3551 as registered with the IANA

#  port to use for sending STATUS and EVENTS data over the network.

#  It is not used unless NETSERVER is on. If you change this port,

#  you will need to change the corresponding value in the cgi directory

#  and rebuild the cgi programs.

NISPORT 3551



# If you want the last few EVENTS to be available over the network

# by the network information server, you must define an EVENTSFILE.

EVENTSFILE /var/log/apcupsd.events



# EVENTSFILEMAX <kilobytes>

#  By default, the size of the EVENTSFILE will be not be allowed to exceed

#  10 kilobytes.  When the file grows beyond this limit, older EVENTS will

#  be removed from the beginning of the file (first in first out).  The

#  parameter EVENTSFILEMAX can be set to a different kilobyte value, or set

#  to zero to allow the EVENTSFILE to grow without limit.

EVENTSFILEMAX 10

# ========== Configuration statements used if sharing =============

#            a UPS with more than one machine



#

# Remaining items are for ShareUPS (APC expansion card) ONLY

#



# UPSCLASS [ standalone | shareslave | sharemaster ]

#   Normally standalone unless you share an UPS using an APC ShareUPS

#   card.

UPSCLASS standalone



# UPSMODE [ disable | share ]

#   Normally disable unless you share an UPS using an APC ShareUPS card.

UPSMODE disable



#

# ===== Configuration statements to control apcupsd system logging ========

#



# Time interval in seconds between writing the STATUS file; 0 disables

STATTIME 0



# Location of STATUS file (written to only if STATTIME is non-zero)

STATFILE /var/log/apcupsd.status



# LOGSTATS [ on | off ] on enables, off disables

# Note! This generates a lot of output, so if         

#       you turn this on, be sure that the

#       file defined in syslog.conf for LOG_NOTICE is a named pipe.

#  You probably do not want this on.

LOGSTATS off



# Time interval in seconds between writing the DATA records to

#   the log file. 0 disables.

DATATIME 0



# FACILITY defines the logging facility (class) for logging to syslog. 

#          If not specified, it defaults to "daemon". This is useful 

#          if you want to separate the data logged by apcupsd from other

#          programs.

#FACILITY DAEMON



#

# ========== Configuration statements used in updating the UPS EPROM =========

#
