I've once got two Smart UPSen to play with for a weekend. The resulting code (a header file describing most of the UPS protocol, and a small demo utility) can be found under: ftp://ftp.inf.tu-dresden.de/pub/people/wunsch/smartups/ In case you're doing further development, please send me your enhancements back.
