Monitor a UPS and coordinate safe computer shutdown
Network UPS Tools reads a supported battery backup through USB, serial or a network interface and shares its status with your computers. It can report battery charge, remaining runtime and mains power, then coordinate an orderly shutdown when the battery is running low.
Install the driver that matches your exact UPS and connection type on an always-on host. Readings and power commands vary by hardware; verify monitoring first, then test your shutdown sequence in a controlled setting before depending on it.
