I have an APC XS 900 with a data cat 5 port on the back. No usb. I have a usb-rj45 adapter that plugs in to the usb port on my computer. When istalling Power Chute it does not detect the battery back-up and will not finish install. Any ideas on comunicating with the battery back up with my computer. I need to turn the alarm off. Thank-you, Bill

hello,

you need the specific cable that came with your UPS - it is proprietary. the cable will be RJ-45 to USB. is the cable you are using the APC cable? it should've come in the box with the unit when you purchased it.

here is the cable you need (or need to look for) -> http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP9827
