I'm running 10.3.6 now and ever since 10.3.4 my UPS has not been working 100%. It would go to battery for no reason and most times shut down the computer. I tested the UPS with no load, just the monitor than back to my G4 without the data cable. It is now running correctly without the data cable.
Because the software is not up-to-date it is causing problems with my system.
APC Powerchute needs update to 10.3.6 and add some of the features found in Windows version.

APC Powerchute needs update to 10.3.6 - John Greene
Darta cable is the key. I had problems for months on end, Shutting down for no reson, running off battery for no reason, tripping current to my monitor causing monitor failure, and wost, corrupting the hard drive. After APC multiple attempts at fixing the problem by sending me OLD refurbished units to replace failed unit they finally discovered the USB data cables originally shipped were rubbish and a new cable seemed to fix the problems. The old cable they say also damages the APC unit once it start to go wrong !Reply to This
