Nearly all of the UPSes I have worked on have momentary power buttons (either toggle on/off, or a pair of on and off buttons).<o:p></o:p></div></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">So, when a power-off-stay-off comes through, then the UPS *<b>itself</b>* shuts down as well, and essentially goes into a soft-off that won’t respond to resumed AC power from the wall outlet? And when the UPS *<b>does</b>* get powered back on (via a button press), then the power outlet for the PC will come back on as well…. I see. So the UPS basically has an “ignore the wall power” flag that gets set when you tell it stayoff, and for poweroff-return, it wouldn’t ignore wall power, and so would come back on when AC is restored.<o:p></o:p></span></div></div></div></div></blockquote><br></div><div>Yes.</div><div><br></div><div>It's a little closer to what some PC BIOSes default to, where they will stay off when power comes back, if they were last commanded to turn off.</div><div><br></div><div>
