[Nut-upsuser] Belkin F6C100-UNV and "-x wait"

I recently installed NUT 2.2.1 and set it up with a Belkin F6C100-UNV.
I can monitor it via serial (belkinunv) or USB (usbhid-ups) cable, and
both do seem to work fine, but I would prefer USB to avoid having to add a
PCI serial card to the machine. I had to unplug something else to try it
with a serial cable.
Using 'belkinunv', there's a "-x wait" option:
[ from it's man page ]
One problem with the Belkin Universal UPS is that it cannot enter a
soft shutdown (shut down the load until AC power returns) unless the
batteries are completely depleted. Thus, one cannot just shut off the
UPS after operating system shutdown; it will not come back on when the
power comes back on. Therefore, the belkinunv driver should never be
used with the -k option. Instead, the -x wait option is provided as a
workaround.
Is there an equivalent to "-x wait" when using the same UPS with the
'usbhid-ups' driver?
Thanks,
Jason
