MachineType is incorrect For Eaton/Powerware

Solarwinds is reporting the Machine Type of our Eaton UPSes as Exide Electronics. From my Thwack searches, it looks like SW uses the sysObjectID OID to populate this field. Is that correct? Well, the sysObjectID.0 from MIB2 for this device is 1.3.6.1.4.1.534.1, which is specifically Eaton/Powerware, so I cannot understand where SW is getting "Exide Electronics". How can I correct this? I even did an SNMP-walk on our devices, and I don't see Exide Electronics anywhere in any of the data.
