I ran into very specific usecase with my recently purchased BX1500M UPS, curious if people here experienced anything similar and there are workarounds.

I have a windows PC powered through the mentioned UPS and connected with a usb cable to the data port of the UPS. When the external power goes down (tested with unplugging the UPS from the wall socket), the PC gracefully shuts down - no problem with that. if the power goes back again after some minutes - the PC starts normally.

However if the power goes back when UPS is in a cycle of shutting down the PC (it is about 1 minute), the UPS just keeps its sockets powered and the PC never gets a signal to start again because it never loses the power (the setting in BIOS only works for the cases when the power was lost).

Any ideas for a workaround?
