The supercapacitor UPS board has a microcontroller for power management. When external power is restored, it sends a power-on signal to the Raspberry Pi 5 via a pin. If the system is currently powered off, it will power on.

The application needs to clear this dialog box promptly to prevent a forced shutdown triggered after two consecutive power outages and recoveries. The demo code provided by our company already includes the code to clear this dialog box.

Note: After executing the shutdown command, the screen will briefly display "plymouth-poweroff.service" for approximately 1-2 seconds. If power is restored during this time, the system will fail to boot and will remain in a shutdown state until the next power outage and restoration. The probability of entering this dead zone is extremely low; it is not a concern for local use. However, for remote unattended use, please carefully evaluate the situation.

'''Note: The "current running time" here refers to the running time of the INA219.py program, not the actual charging time.'''
This is how a supercapacitor UPS starts discharging when fully charged (capacitor voltage around 5.2V), then restarts charging when the capacitor voltage drops below 3V, until it is fully charged (capacitor voltage around 5.2V).

'''2.1 Enabling the I2C Interface'''
This UPS uses the I2C interface to view real-time power parameters. You need to confirm that the I2C interface is enabled on the Ubuntu system:
sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt
Check if i2c_arm (highlighted in red) is set to "on". If not, please configure it as shown in the image below:
