This means waiting and wasting time. You can speed up the testing by setting LB very high so that the UPS reaches it quickly. Later you can set a more reasonable value.> If the UPS is not turning itself off after the NAS goes into safe mode, it might be possible to do this from the Mac.

Some produce an audible clunk as the relays disconnect the UPS power outlets. You could also connect a light bulb to a protected outlet. It should go out when the UPS shuts down. Example test: 1. Pull power cord from wall 2. UPS beeps, NAS and Mac continue operation 3. Users are warned that power has failed 4. When the battery drops to battery.charge.low the slave (Mac) and then the master (NAS) shutdown. 5. After 20 seconds the UPS shuts down. 6. Reconnect the wall power 7. NAS and Mac should restart You will also need a test in which you wait a long time before step 6, and a test in which you reconnect power between steps 4 and 5. Roger

Some produce an audible clunk as the relays disconnect the UPS power outlets. You could also connect a light bulb to a protected outlet. It should go out when the UPS shuts down.The APC produced an audible clunk. So the UPS was shutdown. I am not sure it was after 20 seconds. I have to clock that.> Example test: > > 1.

NAS and Mac should restartResult test 1 1. Pull power cord from wall. ? OK 2. UPS beeps, NAS and Mac continue operation 3. Users from the NAS are warned, not yet the Mac user. Only when executing automatic power-fail shutdown. 4. Yes, Both the Mac and NAS shutdown. Only the Mac shutdown so fast that it looks like pressing the off button. The NAS I have to check if it was in safe-mode some how. 5. The UPS shuts down. I heard an audible clunk. 6. Reconnect the wall power ? OK 7. No they didn?t restart. I know there is a setting on the NAS to activate this. I will check and try again.

I will check and try again.Not sure for the NAS, but for the Mac, it is probably something like this: sudo pmset -a autorestart 1 There is also usually a checkbox in the Energy Saver panel in the System Preferences GUI.

You will have to experiment by disconnecting the UPS control lead from the NAS and connecting it (if possible) to the Mac. After setting to 80 and a power off-on cycle is the value 80 or 10?> 3.
