On an APC SMT1500C device using the rtu_usb version of libmodbus and a USB cable, reads fail with a timeout.
Since support for USB based APC Modbus is not mainlined, I am building the required RTU_USB version of libmodbus and compiling the main branch of NUT with usb and modbus support per the https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/wiki/APC-UPS-with-Modbus-protocol wiki page. The build appears to be successful but I am not able to at get the apc_modbus driver to communicate with the UPS.
I have attached build logs and included the apc_modbus output below. I have tested the connection using APC's PowerChute program (on a different system) and PowerChute is able to collect all of the ModBus only fields (like load and temperatures, etc). So I am fairly confident it is not a physical connection issue. Also when using the standard Debian bookworm build of NUT I am able to reliably communicate using the usbhid-ups driver but as it only provides a few fields, the Modbus driver is prefered.
Any pointers would be appreciated but I am not sure where to go from here.
NUT configuration indicating the new RTU USB features are included in the NUT build
Using apc_modbus to probe the unit this is the output:
