As you can see in the image on the NAS you are sharing the UPS from you need to click on the settings wheel under System > Power > UPS and check Enable Network Monitoring of attached UPS. Then you will be able to configure the other NAS to monitor it. Currently as shown it is unchecked.
Hi ilneill,
Kindly send us the logs so we can check what's wrong. Also, do you have other UPS devices to try?
Kind regards,

Hi BrianL,
I do not have another UPS to try. This APC UPS worked perfectly when shared from one ReadyNAS Duo (v1) to another ReadyNAS Duo (v1). I have now upgraded myself to newer RN102 and RN204 boxes and I assumed the same UPS would be compatible.
Anyway, the UPS is on the RN102 [ReadyNAS-A](and it seems happy with it) and I am trying to add it as a remote UPS to the RN204 [ReadyNAS-B]. Logs for both of the ReadyNAS's sent.
Kind regards,
Ian

Hi mdgm,
Thank you so much. I have now got this sorted. My UPS is now connected and reporting properly on both my ReadyNAS's.
I had missed that setting - slightly annoyed with myself, especially as you seem to spotted it in minutes!
Thanks again.
