i see on your web page a caution about power on the raspi when the atx haven't electricity,  does the ups will brake the atx when an electricity failure arrived?
thank you

ATXRaspi is just a power switch that sits in between your power supply and your Pi.
It doesn't care what the power supply is.

OK thanks for your answer, but the power from the UPS directly go in the gpio if an electricity failure arrived (say my if it's wrong ) and the ATX raspi is on the usb no?

The power should go to the ATXRaspi since it is the switch.
All is explained in the instructions and video here: http://lowpowerlab.com/atxraspi
