I have an M1 Mac Mini that needs to auto-shutdown after 60 seconds on the UPS. We are using an APC Back-Ups 850VA model connected via USB.
Also, this M1 mac mini has had its data migrated from a Time Machine backup of an Intel Mac Mini running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6.
The mac properly recognizes the UPS and lists the UPS options in the Energy Saver preferences, however no matter what I set within the UPS settings, the UPS does not shutdown the machine.
The only thing that does work is a warning when the Mac Mini is drawing from the UPS.
**Does anyone have any suggestions? Nothing in the previous threads have worked.**
Here are the relevant settings:
**pmset -g**
System-wide power settings:
Currently in use:
disksleep 10
powernap 1
womp 1
networkoversleep 0
sleep 0 (sleep prevented by coreaudiod, bluetoothd, powerd)
Sleep On Power Button 1
ttyskeepawake 1
tcpkeepalive 1
autorestart 1
standby 0
**pmset -g ups**
UPS settings:
haltlevel on 100
haltafter on 1
haltremain on 15
**When UPS plugged in:**
Now drawing from 'AC Power'
-Back-UPS ES 850G2 FW:931.a10.D USB FW:a10 (id=25296896) 74%; charging present: true
**When ups unplugged:**
Now drawing from 'UPS Power'
-Back-UPS ES 850G2 FW:931.a10.D USB FW:a10 (id=25296896) 74%; discharging; 4:14 remaining present: true
