For best results, plug your TeraStation in to a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). This will protect it from many kinds of
power outages. When connected to a UPS, The TeraStation can be automatically shut down to protect data. Configure
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 configured.
Notes:
• Refer to Buffalo Technology’s website (
www.buffalotech.com
) for compatible UPS units.
• If the TeraStation unit has automatically shut down due to a power outage, do not turn the unit on until power is
restored. Doing so will force the unit to run on the battery of the UPS, and thus will not shut down automatically a
second time, even if the battery is low.
• If UPS
Recovery function
is enabled, the UPS will automatically restart the TeraStation when normal power is restored.
