The device file for this (for me) is /dev/usb/hiddev0. This device file needs to be read/writable by the "nut" group. nut comes with [UDev] rules to do this, but if you install nut after connecting the [USB] cable then you can either modify the permissions of the file manually, or simply unplug and replug in the cable.
In /etc/nut/ups.conf, I originally had the ''port'' set to /dev/usb/hiddev0, but this resulted in nut occasionally losing the connection (and consequently nagios telling me that there is a problem with the UPS). I assume this is caused by the UPS doing its own self-test or something, but changing the ''port'' setting to be __auto__ seems to have stopped it losing the connection (or at least, automatically reconnecting).
