Has anyone a UPS working properly ?
I have requested a compatibatility list from Thecus and selected a UPS which was locally available. To my big surprise it is not working at all !.
Though the "Online P-Series" is on Thecus' list and it can be selected in the menu of the N5200B, it does NOT cooperate with the N5200 at all.
Battery and power status are indicated as "N/A" and the N5200 sends every few seconds a warning mail: "The system N5200DATA found UPS is unavailable".
Thecus support only did tell me "it should work"
Anyone any experience with working UPS ?

Hello!
I have a N5200 with FW 2.00.04 and the UPS works fine! I use a APC Smart-UPS SC420 and I'm very satisfied!
Best regards, Thorsten :-)

Hi. I also have a APC smart-UPS SC420. No problems with it. Have tested it by switching the power off. I don't get any email notification about the UPS (don't know if I should?). The N5200 did a safe shutdown when the batteries got low. It reports Battery Status % on the status screen.

I have a Powercom BNT-2000AP, which is supposedly supported, however I always lose connection to UPS when I select the 2000AP as model.
I currently have selected 1000AP instead as it at least gets connected, even if the numbers it reports are incorrect.

@ glo8al. With the FW 2.00.01 the e-mail notification for the UPS doesn't work!!! With an update to 2.00.04 the UPS works fine. - The power status shown correct.
- The battery level shown correct.
- The UPS e-mail notification works.
- The N5200 shutdown correct if the battery level is low.
But be carefully; The nsync doesn't work!!Best regards, Thorsten :-)

Thx Thorstense. I don't use nysnc, so I might look at doing the upgrade.

Sorry, totally foolish question....
I have found and bought an APC-Smart UPS 700 via ebay. When it will have arrived, I´ll let you know, whether and how it works.
Greetings George
