Some of the variables (those with HU_FLAG_ABSENT) are apparently not stored

the ups.delay.start value should be safe to send at the time when it is
set.
I see. So if for some reason I wanted to change ups.delay.shutdown on a more
permanent basis and the UPS won't store the changed setting, I would need to
run a script on the server to submit the changed value to the UPS each time
the server boots up.
I had the same problem with an Eaton Ellipse ECO 1500.
ups.delay.shutdown got lost at each power cycle. I fixed it by setting
offdelay = 30
ondelay = 40
in ups.conf. This seems to me to be a better solution than writing a
script. I'm guessing that if these two lines are omitted, no value is
sent to the UPS unit. Is this true?
