Only for the Beckhoff P24Vxxxx UPS from UPS software v3.0.0.8 or higher. An interval service can be configured for this on whose expiry battery change warnings are written into the Windows event log. Use the checkbox to activate or deactivate the function. The number of months before the first warning must additionally be configured in the Edit field. The function is only available if the date of the last battery change and the Windows system time (in the taskbar) have also been correctly set/configured.
