master device controls the slave devices.
When the UPS is connected to the My Cloud device by USB, the device automatically becomes a
UPS Network Master. Other 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
My Cloud slave drives will automatically shut down properly. See Knowledge Base Answer ID
