USER MANUAL

Network UPS

An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is a device that works off of a battery and keeps
devices that are connected to the UPS port running for at least a short time if the main
power source goes out. When a WD My Cloud Mirror device is connected via USB to the
network drive the drive will automatically shut down when the UPS is drained to a specified
percentage.

Communication with the WD My Cloud Mirror device is done using a master/slave protocol
in which the master device controls the slave devices.

When the UPS is connected to the WD My Cloud Mirror device by the USB, the device
automatically becomes a UPS Network Master. Other WD My Cloud devices that are
connected to that UPS can be pointed to the IP address of the UPS Master. If the UPS is
discharged to the specified percentage, all of the WD My Cloud Mirror slave drives will
automatically shut down properly.
