There's no instruction for LS-QVL. However i try to press FUNCTION button (on front panel) and the turn NAS on... both button then blinking, after few minutes, the function button turn red.

 

i download the firmware update (LSUpdater),  when i tried to upgrade, it has error  "Partition not found. Aborting firmware update"
