SUMMARY
Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) monitoring can be enabled by installing the UPS.SYS device driver and the UPS.EXE service.

The only parameter available for the UPS.SYS device driver is /PORT, which allows you to select which COM port is monitored. The default is COM1; therefore, to explicitly select the COM port the following syntax must be used:    device= : \UPS.SYS /PORT:COM2 The UPS.EXE service has an parameter not mentioned in the installation guide: /DEVICENAME. It allows you to set the device driver the service monitors to one other than the default driver, &quot;UPS_DEV&quot; (the name that UPS.SYS registers with the system).

A UPS device driver development kit is available from Microsoft.
