and checkbox not enabled 

The user is able to enter/configure the battery replace service interval (number of months) before first warning is logged to Windows eventlog.

 

Use the checkbox to activate or deactivate the functionality. The functionality is only available if the battery change date and system time (in the task bar) is also set/configured.

The UPS service compares the configured battery change date to the configured service interval at service start. If battery replace date + service interval >= current system date => Windows Eventlog warning message will be logged.

The warning message do not reflects the real battery condition and can be used as reminder to check the real battery condition or battery age.
