Have you seen the User Manual "6.3. Configuring automatic shutdowns for 
low battery events"? 
http://networkupstools.org/docs/user-manual.chunked/ar01s06.html#UPS_shutdown 
You need to have upsmon configured and running.

Have you seen "Configuring NUT for the Eaton 3S UPS on Ubuntu Linux" 
https://srackham.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/configuring-nut-for-the-eaton-3s-ups-on-ubuntu-linux/ 
with an example of upsmon configuration?
