The shutdown delay gets discretized into a few different values, and is then 
sent to the UPS:

http://www.networkupstools.org/protocols/megatec.html#_shutdown_command

I'm not too familiar with the internals of this driver (development has shifted 
to its successor, nutdrv_qx, which should also be available in v2.7.1) but it 
looks like you can manually test the shutdown with the following command (after 
everything else has been stopped; perhaps send this from another system?):

/usr/lib/ups/driver/blazer_usb -a ups91500 -DDD -k

You should see a debug line with "send: S10R000".

Although it appears that a 600-second delay is within spec, you could try 540 
to see if it makes a difference. It is also possible that the UPS is hardwired 
for a two-minute delay.

These don't affect the shutdown command that is sent to the UPS.

Understood. We try to collect these differences between spec and response in 
the DDL, but your UPS had not been reported as of yet: 
http://buildbot.networkupstools.org/~buildbot/cayman/docs/latest/ddl/ 
(canonical URL is http://www.networkupstools.org/ddl/ but I'm getting a 503 
error at the moment.)

There is a similar problem with this UPS: 
http://buildbot.networkupstools.org/~buildbot/cayman/docs/latest/ddl/Fideltronik_INIGO/Viper_1200.html
 (Not to pick on Fideltronik, but they were the first entry I found.)
