I know this has always been hard/impossible to do but I thought I would ask in case this had finally been resolved. I tried using upscmd but it can't find the APC UPS (USB). The man page and other documentation is pretty bad. I already use apcupsd to monitor my various UPS units so I tried using the apctest program. All it can do is perform the alarm test function. Everything else comes back with a message saying it can't do whatever it is I want to do. Any pointers appreciated. Yes, I realize I could find a blows box somewhere, load the Powerchute program, and disable the alarm that way.
You could look at using nut to manage your UPSes. There is a command for setting parameters, but I don't know if will turn off the (audible?) alarm for your particular UPS. upsrw or upscmd would be what you want, but you need to be using nut to monitor the UPS and you need to do some config file setup.
