Hi Per_Hallenborg

 

Welcome to the Community!

 

The NAS you are using uses an older version of NUT but the APC model you have is listed on it's compatible devices. You may check here.

 

It mentioned that the APC models SMX does need to use the AP9620 SmartSlot expansion card and smart cable. Check here.

Hello.

 

Thanks for the reply. However it raises another question.

Does it means that it is only possible to monitor the UPS via cable, not SNMP?

    Hi Per_Hallenborg

     

    I am not familiar with APC models but according to APC the SMX model should use the expansion card and cable. http://www.apc.com/us/en/faqs/FA156172/

     

    It needs the expansion card and cable for it to be managed and it's management software.
