Monitoring UPS over SNMP for Readynas nv+ v2.
Hi, I cant understand why the Readynas is not switching off when a low UPS battery level is reached. As you can see on the screenshots, I am monitoring a UPS over SNMP and it can ready the values...

Is the UPS also protecting the switch(es) between the NAS and the UPS?
Have you also tried connecting the UPS to the NAS with USB?

Hi StephenB ,
The power court of the NAS is going into the UPS.
The UPS is a serverrack UPS and only has power and a network connection, which is used to communicated with the other devices on the network. No USB available.

This is the Smart-UPS X 2200? The manual (attached) says there is a USB port.

Hi,
Its not completly the same as the document. mine is a SMX2200HV
The manual does look to show a usb, not sure why I never seen it. I will have another look on the UPS. :-)
Question:
1. why would I connect the NAS with the UPS using USB cable? Does this not defeat the purpose of the network monitoring option?
2 If all would have worked correctly without using a USB cable, what would be the value on which the NAS should switch off when using the network monitor option? Low battery? Any idea?
Thanks
