|97 = Set Outlet Parameter
|01 = Set Automatic Off Delay of outlet xx
|01 = this is the outlet xx
|0c = LSB of seconds => 12
|00 = MSB of seconds => 00 so it reads 0012 sec.

|Now the ups is telling you that the command is accepted, but parameter
01
|is 
|not valid for this command.
|Try setting the ON DELAY "2" then it is OK.

command and log message:

upsrw  -u au -p ap -s outlet.1.delay.start=3  PW5125 at localhost

bcmxcp[94366]: Outlet 1 start delay set to 3 sec

  :(

I checked my library, and I have only the user manuals.


Thanks for your help.

I am going to try loading up Powerware's LanSafe software, and see if
that can change the shutdown delay settings, and whether the change
will be persistent.   But that is for another day...

Thanks again.

Mike.
