Hi Bob, good to see you here also
I have nwsp vs 1 so I can no test it but I thnk it must be possible by changing the gpio pin settings for the power pin, I wll see if I can write a small test program
Yo still use version 5-1, no problem of course but didn't you want ntfs support for usb disk. In version 8-0 it is included

Bob, switching of the power led will be included in the coming release

If you have fvdw8-0 installed and you are you familiar with using Putty and SSH access to your NAS, then there is a way to do it manual for the moment

just type on the command line after connecting to the nas with Putty

Code: Select all
echo pledoff > /proc/resource_dump


this will switch off the power led

to switch it on again perform a reboot or use "pledon" in the above command line instead of "pledoff"

ps the commands do not work in fvdw5-1 as that has a different kernel and way of switching the leds on and off
