On the Smart-UPS 1000, all the instant commands do more or less what you would 
expect. Looking at the timers using "upsc apc1500" I now see that:

 shutdown.
   load.off/load.off.delay both set the shutdown timer to 90, shuts down 
     after 90 seconds 

   reboot sets the reboot timer to 90, sleeps after 90 seconds

   return immediately switches to battery for a moment, sets both shutdown
     and startup to 90 seconds, sleeps after 90 seconds

 test.panel and beeper commands also work as expected. 

So you are right, it does seem to be working on this model. I don't know why I 
didn't see this when I was testing originally. Also I don't understand why the 
shutdown.return, which seems to be translated to "load.on.delay, load.off.delay" 
is used in preference to the "shutdown.reboot" command.

On the CS 500 the load.off switches it off immediately, the load.off delay, 
shutdown.return and shutdown.stayoff all switch to battery, and set the shutdown 
timer to 20 seconds and then shuts down after that time. (Never restarts) The 
beeper commands work, as does the shutdown.stop (sets the shutdown timer to -1)
