I just purchased a Back-UPS BN600G to protect my Mac desktop. I would like to set the power sensitivity level to Low and the voltage levels like I do on with PowerChute on my Back_UPS ES 550 on my Windows computer, but there is no option to do that on a Mac. Can I connect the BN600G to my Windows computer and set the levels there, and then move the BN600G to my Mac? Will the settings stay as I have set them when I had it connected to Windows PowerChute software?

Yes, you could set the levels, sensitivity and other desired parameters from your Windows PC and move the UPS back to your Mac.
While it may not be an issue with current generation product, I've seen some older "plugstrip" APC UPS models suffer "amnesia" after a while, particularly with regard to turning the beeper off. It seemed to happen most often after replacing the battery.
