3.7.3 UPS Settings
You can connect a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) to the NAS and enable the
UPS support. When an expected power outage occurs, the UPS is able to supply
the power to the NAS continuously. You can also configure the settings to turn off
the NAS after the AC power fails. If the power of the UPS is insufficient to last for
the time specified, the NAS will shut down immediately for optimized server
protection.
Enable UPS support
Select this option to enable the UPS support. Enter the time the NAS should
wait before shutting down after the AC power fails. In general, the UPS can
supply the power for 5-10 minutes when the AC power fails depending on the
maximum load and the number of connected devices.
UPS Model
Select the UPS model from the list. If the UPS model you are using is not
available on the list, please contact our technical support.

If you select to use “APC UPS with SNMP Management”, enter the IP address
of the UPS.
Note: To allow your UPS device to send SNMP alerts to the QNAP NAS in case of
power loss, you may have to enter the IP address of the NAS in the configuration
page of the UPS device.
