This sounded like a very appealing and sensible suggestion, thanks, so I just
tried it.
I edited /etc/nut/ups.conf to contain the following stanza
[cyber]
driver = usbhid-ups
port = auto
desc = "Cyber Power Systems VALUE800EILCD"
offdelay = 30
ondelay = 100
and then I "tested the shutdown sequence" with
sudo upsmon -c fsd
The computer duly shut down but then didn't come back up for 3 minutes, at
which point I power-cycled it by removing and re-inserting the cable. (By the
way, 5 seconds of off time wasn't enough to wake it up, but 30 was.)
So what else could be wrong?
- Should I have written load.off.delay instead of offdelay?
- Should I have issued any other command to cause the driver to read its
ups.conf file?
- Could it be that the second issue I reported in my original message to the
list is also affecting what happens?

I am still getting quite a few console broadcasts that "UPS cyber@localhost is
unavailable" and (a) I don't know why (b) I wonder if this is preventing nut
from telling the UPS those new values for the on-delay and off-delay.
