The load.on/off commands let you control the load by sending commands to 
the UPS. One use might be in large installations where you want to fully 
control (stage) the start-up/shut-down sequence. On a Eaton 3S, the 
commands worked independently of the state of the manual power switch, 
but on others I've seen undesired operation. I was just playing, so far 
I've not needed the functionality.

No, to my knowledge, it won't change the power return behavior.

They aren't in upsrw. I'll be watching them after sending UPS commands 
that have a delay.
