Will ReadyNAS Ultra 6 work with Powerwalker VI 650 ?

I just got myself a new UPS, a powerwalker VI 650. I connected everything like it should (USB from USP to NAS), but the NAS does not "see" a UPS attached. Any way I can make it so that the NAS monitors the USP, and automatically powers off on power failure? Thanks for any help!

    Frontview doesn't detect the UPS (in System -> Power -> UPS Configuration), but when I disconnect the USB cable I get a "UPS has been disconnected" pop-up, and log entry.

    It seems the ReadyNas Duo doesn't play nice with this UPS.

    Anyone managed to get their ReadyNAS to properly detect the status of a Powerwalker UPS?

    Thanks!
