APCUPSD Monitor - Remote UPS Battery Monitor
Do not rate under 4 stars without contacting or giving rating without reason explanation because I actually care about ideas to make this better. I use this myself all the time so it's actually made for purpose.
This is a simple, free and also ad free APCUPSD monitor application which can be used via SSH to pull information from your APCUPSD instances. I have developed this app for my own use with features I need so future features are up to users to ask. My personal usage for this is to monitor power outage logs easily.
Features
• Multiple UPS supported!
• Read and display status information.
• Read and display event logs. You can change event log power event coloring method from settings.
• Background status polling service. You can which this feature on at settings.
• Private key ssh connection support. It's very recommended to use this method instead!
• Front page UPS list has swipe actions for edit and delete actions.
How to use
• You need SSH server with APCUPSD installed (I have version 3.14.12...)
• First start, input your SSH server variables (server address, port if changed from default, username, password)
• Return from settings where following variables are given and click refresh from right corner menu.
• App will ask you to verify host name key finger print. App will remember it afterwards, until/if it changes.
• Better guide available here: http://www.nitramite.com/apcupsdmonitor.html
- I personally use Raspberry Pi (Rasbian linux) server.
Troubleshooting
• App cannot fetch data?
- Try running sudo apcaccess without sudo. If you see credentials problem then: add NOPASSWD: /sbin/apcaccess to sudoers file and it should work fine.
• Still cannot fetch data?
- Try remove sudo part from command at application settings (bottom of view).
# I am adding more troubleshooting specs based on user reports and problem solving.

Here's a little hint. If the app doesn't collect data, you could remove the "sudo" in execution command.

Good app, does what it says on the tin and has the bonus of being open sauce? Would 5* again

Great app, exactly what i needed!
So far the app has worked right away. I have a apc ups connected to my unraid server with a USB cable. I was able to input my servers ip address into the app and it was able to pull the status of my ups right away.
