There exist a certain kind of power strips where you plug the computer into a special controlling outlet, and all the peripherals into the other outlets. When the current drawn through the controlling outlet drops below an adjustable threshold, it cuts off power to the other outlets. If you'd put such a device between your UPS and your computer equipment, the UPS would then sense (if it has this feature) that the load has dropped to a very low value. Björn Persson
