Notebooks and, more significant, the server is used as a home automation server,
so the uptime of it should be almost continuosly even when longer power outages
appear, which, unfortunately (and one of the reasons for that setup) occours
multiple times per year in my region (Spain). The goal is that this server wille
running the longest appliance in the whole houshold.

when i am also working, after approx. 3-4 hours when I am on travels and
"minimum" charge is on the UPS. By monitoring everything thru the home
server there are even shutdowns / switch off's of other devices such as the
NAS, Work Station or directly attached storage in time to make best use of the
UPS for a very long "survival time" of the home server.

cases NOT a shutdown of the server), I cannot "correct" the status in
the tray, which, in case I am away, is a bit uncomfortable when accessing the
server via VNC.

the tray without shutting down the machine running apcupsd?

If the tray app were part of for example Gnome, I would suggest restarting the 
app.  Is there a Windows 7 equivalent of sending SIGHUP to it?

If that doesn't do the job, try asking in a Win 7 forum.
