I think I've failed in obtaining a compatible UPS. I got model APC BACK - UPS Pro 1500 I thought it was compatible by looking at the NUT specs. I also saw a reviewer on neweggs site stating that he had purchased this model and was compatible with freenas.
complete model #
APC Back-UPS Pro BR1500G 1500VA 865W 10 Outlets Power Saving Back-UPS Pro
Supplier part Back-UPS RS 1500VA
I configured it by using these instructions
http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/UPS
I'm not beast at SHELL or viewing the console messages like some of you guys, but I do have a few messages that I've searched for, that lead me to believe that I made an incompatible purchase.
Ive set PORT to /dev/ugen1.4 (that's the port that pops up on the console when I plug the ups in the usb port) and have tried several of the drivers as well. I didn't mess with any of the other settings theres a user name and password listed, I left that alone.
messages on the console:

anyone have any recommendations on a compatible unit?. I don't trust the NUT list any more. Thanks
