Turn on the UPS, then the LinkStation.

In the Web Admin interface, navigate to [System] - [Power Management] - [UPS Settings] and click [Modify Settings].

61 If your LinkStation is connected directly to the UPS, select [synchronize with UPS connected to this LinkStation]. To have the UPS shut down multiple LinkStations on the same network, select [synchronize with UPS connected to other LinkStation on the network] and enter the IP address of the LinkStation that is connected directly to the UPS in the field below.

The LinkStation is now configured to work with the UPS.

Note: If the LinkStation shuts down automatically due to a power outage, make sure that the power issue is resolved before turning it back on. If the LinkStation is turned back on while it’s still running on the UPS battery, the UPS will not shut it down again, even if the battery runs low.
