I have an older Belkin F6C1500-TW-RK UPS and the mfg has not offered software management for the Win 7 64bit OS. I want to let Win 7 manage the battery and shutdown. I set the High Performance under Power Options to turn off display and put the computer to sleep after 3 minutes as a test. I yanked the input to the UPS and nothing happens and I went at least 5-6 minutes (didn't time). The battery icon in the sys tray stated 2 minutes remaining and never moved.
I have connected the UPS via USB and the Device and Printers, USB Input Device show the drivers are fine and the UPS is working.
Am I misunderstanding what Win 7 will do on its own without mfg monitoring software?
The attached are screen shots how I set the advanced settings
