Winpower Manager

UPS stands for uninterruptible power supply and it is an electrical equipment that still provides power to the connected devices even when the main power line is down. This way, you can save your work or finish your current project on your PC even if there is a blackout in your neighborhood.

Winpower Manager is one of the apps you can rely on to control your UPS, no matter if it is a local or a remote one (LAN and WAN are both supported).

Before enjoying the functions of this utility, you need to make sure you have previously installed Java, otherwise the application does not launch.

Once this step is completed, no expert configuration is required, as the supported UPS device is automatically detected and listed within the main window. You can view all its components, as well as the load level and battery voltage.

If you are not a tech-savvy user, you might need to take some time to browse through the hefty documentation to understand all the features and make the best of them.

For instance, you can schedule your UPS to shutdown or hibernate your computer when the battery is below a certain threshold. Moreover, you can even schedule the UPS itself to power off if you want to.

A handy function of Winpower Manager is that it can automatically send an email message or SMS to the addresses you specified whenever a certain event is identified. In other words, you can be notified when the UPS failed to start, or its battery is running low if the load is too high or the temperature is too low.

This application can prove to be extremely useful to all those who want to fully enjoy the functions of their UPS and are looking for a straightforward UI app for help them.
