I have a Back-UPS RS 1250 and it is connected to my Windows 7 desktop using the USB cable. I tried installing PowerChute v9.1 Business Edition, but when I go to the Device List Configuration, it discovers my unit as my fully qualified desktop name. I add that to the "Current Device List" and select Apply button and I receive the message "Failed to apply the configuration profile to ". Can I use Business Edition with this APC unit? If so, what am I doing wrong?
