[Nut-upsuser] Powercom BNT-1500AP serial config

Hey all,

Finally got around to hooking up my Powercom BNT-1500AP to nut. It's the 
old serial interface.

Connects okay and gets most information, but a couple of data are way off.

Any config recommendations or upgrade recommended? I've played with 
config a little, but no hits yet.

Details:

NUT version 2.4.3

ups.conf:
[ups]
         driver = powercom
         port = /dev/ttyS0


NOTE: battery.charge is wrong, input.voltage as well at a minimum.
upsc ups:
battery.charge: -197.6
device.mfr: PowerCom
device.model: KIN-1500AP
device.serial: Unknown
device.type: ups
driver.name: powercom
driver.parameter.pollinterval: 2
driver.parameter.port: /dev/ttyS0
driver.parameter.type: BNT-other
driver.version: 2.4.3
driver.version.internal: 0.12
input.frequency: 80.12
input.voltage: 99.8
input.voltage.nominal: 120
output.frequency: 80.12
output.voltage: 99.8
ups.load: 9.0
ups.mfr: PowerCom
ups.model: KIN-1500AP
ups.model.type: KIN
ups.serial: Unknown
ups.status: OL



/lib/nut/powercom -a ups -DDDDDDD: Output attached.

Later,
