How to Setup UPS on ReadyNAS 204

I am trying to find some discussion on how to setup and configure a cyberpower UPS for a ReadyNAS 204 system, with no success.

 

Can somebody point to some instructions, etc. ?

 

TNX.

    What happens when you connect the USB cable between the Cyberpower UPS and the 204?


    Note the UPS must have a USB port. We don't support using UPSes where a serial-to-usb cable is required.

    Which firmware are you running on the 204?

      Which model did you purchase?

       

      I use cyberpower, all you need to do is connect the RN204 to one of the battery-powered outlets (some are only surge-protected), and connect the USB cable from the RN204 to the UPS.

       

      It should show up on the power menu on the RN204.
