Look for 'commfailure' and apccontrol script, but looks like a bad plan.
Apcupsd using SNMP
On the UPS enable SNMP and have a community (for example public) with read access.
In /etc/apcupsd/apcupsd.conf:
UPSCABLE ether UPSTYPE snmp DEVICE 192.168.188.12:161:APC:public
After starting apcupsd check it with
apcaccess
(this can be run as non-root) This only works with
NETSERVER on
FAQ
acpaccess does not provide info like TIMELEFT
apt install snmp
