I wonder if as a result of the tinkering and testing something has gotten
mucked up in your Synology's config...perhaps in the config files you were
editing? I wonder this because with a stock Synology UPS configuration as a
NUT client to my RaspberryPi NUT server, my Synology does power off
properly. I do not know if there is a way to restore the Synology's UPS
config files to the default configuration, though that might be a
worthwhile endeavor for your NAS.
