Back-UPS HS 500 Password and username factory reset - doesn't!
I've years of experience using APC products, Smart UPS, PowerChute on servers and such, and now I'm retired with a couple desktops and a Back-UPS HS 500. . I follow the link to "Go to Solution" and all I see are other folks with the same problem. Couldn't log on; did a factory reset; "apc" and "apc" don't work.
Model:
APC Back-UPS HS 500
Serial number:
AB0733820858
Firmware revision:
l1
Web firmware revision:
l5
Somewhere, long ago, I remember a change in the factory reset password.... Long time ago.
Any help would be appreciated ... would like to do a self-test, reset the battery change date, etc.
