Hedrick" <hedrick@astro.dyer.vanderbilt.edu> */ /***************************************************************************/ Newer BackUPS Pro series users: This a newer version is my best guess......it has almost all of the features of the Smart UPS series less the "temp" and "dip switches" I believe that the difference is the serial number series. Mine (donated by A.S.A. Computers) has this serial number: 'FB9742936193' The way to test is to try both modes.
