In 2009, Schneider Electric acquired Microsol Technologies, and by 2012, the entire Microsol line of equipment was being sold under the APC brand\&. Newer devices may be better supported by \fBmicrosol-apc\fR(8) driver instead\&.
.SH "EXTRA ARGUMENTS"

This driver support the following extra optional settings in the \fBups.conf\fR(5)\&.

.SH "ISSUES"
.sp
The APC version of the Microsol protocol is slightly incompatible with the \fBsolis\fR driver\&. As of version 0\&.62 of the \fBsolis\fR driver, the driver will connect to the UPS, but some values are read incorrectly\&.
