TeraStation IS Setup Guide 33

protected. Congure the following settings to use the TeraStation with a UPS.
1
Connect the UPS to a wall socket.
2
Connect the AC cable of the TeraStation to the UPS.
3
Connect the UPS and the TeraStation with either a USB cable or a serial cable.

Your UPS is now congured.
Notes:
Consult Buffalo Technology’s website (www.buffalotech.com) for compatible UPS units.
After the TeraStation has automatically shut down during a power outage, do not turn the TeraStation on
again until normal power is restored. If you do, the TeraStation will run on the UPS’s battery, and will not shut
down automatically a second time, even as the UPS’s battery becomes exhausted.
If UPS recovery is congured, the UPS will automatically restart the TeraStation when normal power is
restored.
