    HS restart after power failure

    I have added a UPS to my setup and was investigating UPS plugins when I started to wonder -
    suppose I have my UPS plugin shut down Homeseer because the UPS's battery is getting low, but then the power comes back on at the last minute. What's going to restart Homeseer?

    I did this using the BLUPS free plugin. The Hometroller will restart once power is restored. It is better to gracefully shut it down. I has a power failure that caused me to lose all my changes since the last backup. Since then I added the BLUPS event and set a reminder on my phone to backup HS every Sunday at 5pm. It would be great if HS did this automatically.

      You can just use BLBackup to automatically backup HS3.
