apcupsd causes restart

[Vancejo1]

When I stop the apcupsd service and run apctest then select 10 battery calibration. It cause my router to reboot after reporting the calibration was aborted. My battery is only 1 year old, and all the other tests passed. APC backups 750.

I'm running the 24.11-RELEASE (arm64) on a Netgate SG-1100.

Is it really rebooting? Or does the UPS cut the power?
Check the logs to get sure.
I've seen the latter already, but with old batteries, however.

Yes it definitely is rebooting, but not immediately. I was able to try it 3 more times before putty quit responding.

Here is what shows in putty...

Select function number: 10

This test instructs the UPS to perform a battery calibration
operation and reports the result when the process completes.
The battery level must be at 100% and the load must be at least
10% to begin this test.

Battery level is 100% -- OK
Load level is 14% -- OK
Clearing previous self test result...CLEARED

The battery calibration should automatically end
when the battery level drops below about 25%.
This process can take minutes or hours, depending on
the size of your UPS and the load attached.
