You can't at the moment. Only WARNING if "On Battery".

You can use "-v BATTPCT -w 40 -c 20" to WARN if battery percent remaining 
fell below 40% and CRIT if percent remaining fell below 20%

Assuming you know your load and runtimes, and BATTPCT is retrievable, you 
can adjust the warning and critical levels.

use UPS as contact group for the check_ups services only - not the host or 
other services on the host.

For the other services/hosts maitain the existing contact definition that 
doesn't send out pages on warning.
