4. Fasten the screw tightly. 5. Turn on the NAS. Note: To replace a failed power supply unit, turn off the NAS. Then remove the failed unit safely and repeat steps 3-5 above to install a new power supply unit.
Warning: The NAS supports replacing the redundant power supply unit without turning off the server when redundant power supply mode is enabled. However, users are strongly recommended to turn OFF the NAS before replacing the power supply unit to reduce the risk of electric shock. A second power supply unit can be installed on a single power (SP) rackmount NAS model to upgrade the SP model to redundant power (RP) model. 10.
3. Unplug the failed power supply. 4. Plug in a new power supply to the NAS. 5. Turn on the NAS.
10.3 2U Turbo NAS (except TS-1279U-RP and TS-EC1279U-RP) The following instructions should only be performed by an authorized and trained technician. To replace a failed power supply unit on a 2U Turbo NAS, follow the steps below. 1. Turn off the NAS. 2. Unfasten the screw on the failed power supply in an anticlockwise direction. 3. Unplug the failed power supply.
4. Plug in the new power supply to the NAS. 5. Fasten the screw on the power supply in clockwise direction. 6. Turn on the NAS.
Enable warning alert for redundant power supply on the web-based interface: If two power supply units (PSU) have been installed on the NAS and connected to the power sockets, both PSU will supply the power to the NAS (applied to 1U and 2U models). Users can enable redundant power supply mode in “System Administration” > “Hardware” to receive warning alert for the redundant power supply. The NAS will beep and record the error messages in “System Logs” when the PSU is plugged out or fails.
The following description applies to 1U NAS models only. (1) Power supply indicators: Green (left) power indicator: Indicates the power supply unit is in normal status. Red (right) power indicator: Indicates the power supply unit is in abnormal status. (2) Mute power alarm button: When an error is detected on power supply unit, the system beeps to alert the administrator. Press this button to turn off the alarm.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. Preamble The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works. The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed to take away your freedom to share and change the works.
distribute and/or modify it. For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to authors of previous versions. Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer can do so.
A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the Program. To “propagate” a work means to do anything with it that, without permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), making available to the public, and in some countries other activities as well.

However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work.
measures. When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of technological measures. 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
by their nature extensions of the covered work, and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program, in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other parts of the aggregate. 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be included in conveying the object code work. A “User Product” is either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling.
Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided, in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly documented (and with an implementation available to the public in source code form), and must require no special password or key for unpacking, reading or copying. 7. Additional Terms. “Additional permissions” are terms that supplement the terms of this License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
All other non-permissive additional terms are considered “further restrictions” within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is governed by this License along with a term that is a further restriction, you may remove that term.
You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However, nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License.

Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law. 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to choose that version for the Program. Later license versions may give you additional or different permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a later version. 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
