Turning off the LinkStation Pro Duo

   Turning off the LinkStation Pro Duo...how is this done? The only option I can find in the web interface is for "restarting". I want to be able to shutdown the unit when large lightning storms are in the area.

There are a few options, depending on your firmware version.

 

1. Go into the web interface, click on "Maintenance". There should be a "Shutdown" option.

 

2. Older units have a small "Power" button on the back.

 

3. Newer units have a small switch with On, Off, and Auto as option. Swtiching it to off will power it down, but it may take a minute or two for it to cycle through.

As Sethz said, the lever on the back should have an off option on recent LS Pro Duo's.

and check page 8, titled "Power Mode".  Should explain it quite well for you.

 

Hope this helps.
