I am Wondering is it possible to be created a Notification battery Icon (for the UPS device) on my Personall Computer ? ->

My idea is if Electricity at home stops and my PC continue to work through the UPS device , a Notification battery icon to show up so i will know how much time the UPS will work!

Since it is PC and not Lap top i doubt a battery Icon for the USP can be created or it can ??

Or you can just look up the model number on the ups and see how long it lasts?

The problem is i hanged My PC, My Monitor and My Lap Top on it through a Coupler and IDK how long battery will last with 3 items hanged on it !

The model is INFORM Guard S 600A
But it will be really cool if i can create notification icon !

Depends on the usp. Some have a usb cable that plugs into your pc to give you battery life, how many times it was tripped, etc.

Nope.

There's no way for the UPS to communicate with the PC without a USB cable or etc.

Your best bet is to get a cheap multi/volt meter and mount it somewhere convenient
