qnap lcd panel quotation

For example when you use the front USB copy socket/button, it could actually give the status/instructions on the LCD!! (Mounting USB disk... Press to Copy... Finished, press to unplug...) I"m a bit disappointed that the more expensive QNAP has an LCD, but apart from using it to select shut-down, I never use it.

I have seen some people running commands to output text to the LCD, so it is possible that a coder could write a small app to output various things on the LCD. I don"t know if it would be possible to replace the normal QNAP menu though, and take over the two front panel buttons to select what to display, etc. http://forum.qnap.com/viewtopic.php?f=9 ... t=lcd_tool

Hi, I"m running 4.1.4 Build20150820 on my TS-419P II and have noticed that it now displays firmware version rather than IP address under the NAS name on the front LCD.

I understand all of these points. I was merely pointing out that your instructions to review the IP settings via the LCD of the NAS have always worked the same way. As you quite correctly pointed out, he can review them via the LCP panel using the buttons. This has always been possible. I used to do this under QTS 3.6.1 which was many years ago.

All that changed in the recent Firmware releases, both Public and Beta, is that this information (IP address) is no longer the last item shown. It still is accessible via the LCD panel as you already pointed out. (I was agreeing with you).

I just set up my TS-563 and I assumed that the LCD panel on the unit comes on and displays info automatically, but mine hasn"t displayed anything since I brought it online yesterday. Is there a setting I"m missing?

EDIT: So, after doing some research, it would appear that the 563 does NOT have a front LCD panel...weird. Oh well, at least now I don"t have to go through the hassle to RMA it

the only thing I like about the brand new units qnap just released, is the tiny oled display ...I think displays are useful (no hunting for ip address etc)

I have a TS-563 for my backup/development platform I think it is awesome value for money. Only time I have ever used displays is when the unit boots, but even then I dont look at it. So for me paying a premium for a pretty screen wasn"t even in my list of requirements when purchasing the 563. I also have a TVS-882 which has a screen, but I never look at it. The TS-563 for the price has great perfomance, takes the latest QTS, and also fits the new QM2 cards, including 10Gb... what"s not to like. If your requirements include a screen, no issues, there are plenty of QNAP models with them.

For my NAS, the only difference I can remember between the "Pro" and non-"Pro" models is the LCD screen. So, I made sure I purchased the "Pro" versions. But the non-"Pro" looks almost identical.

Not a secret, the non-Pro used to be "simplified" versions with some stripped-off hardware. Similar, the TS-563 was specified as an basic NAS, non-GPU, five-bay, encryption capable system. QNAP preferred the AMD over the then new Atom C2000 platform, and introduced a 10 GbE option in this market. And then, the competition was to be expected without a display, so in the aim of keeping the costs down, there is none. So there is no "huge LCD panel", never was.

I am amazed this thread is still going. I mean seriously, it"s not like QNAP is being fraudulent, the specs of each QNAP model is clearly detailed on their website. I chose the TS-563 because it was excellent value, and performs beyond my expectations. And for my circumstances part of my decision was to choose a model without a screen. My advice, read the specifications, make an informed choice, and move on.

You can press the buttons next to the screen (right side) to light up the LCD and it will show (cycle through) different information such as IP address, firmware version, model name, RAID configuration, system information...etc.

Anyway, I"d rather have almost no lights on, it makes it far easier to find the equipment in error when something goes wrong (because then the LCD goes on)

I too would like to see an "LCD always on" feature for the TS-809. I would like rotating messages only if the rotated messages could be selected in the web interface. For instance, I would probably just enable IP/hostname, temps, and version messages. This would be quite useful to me as the NAS is on a hard-to-reach shelf in my office.

I have had my TS-421 for a while now and it has had no issues until the other day. I have an external 3 TB USB drive connected to the NAS and have had full access. Something - no idea what - happened and I lost contact with the USB. I figured a reboot of the NAS would fix things but it all went to custard. I have now lost the NAS from my network, it shows no IP address on either NIC from the LCD panel, and I can"t get it to respond to an IP that I set from the LCD.

The device works fine except for the LCD problem, I have tried downgrading back to 4.0.2. I shall try 4.1. My next action will be to backup all the data and do a full factory reset. However I do not think that one should have to do this.

After a firmware upgrade to 4.0.2 (in the user interface) my Qnap was rebooting. However, on the blue lcdscreen on the qnap itself, it kept saying Rebooting... please wait...

Modern businesses face the challenge of dramatic growth of digital data, including emails, documents and databases. Increasingly, IT managers are turning to networked storage to provide reliable, scalable storage, centralized network backup, and easy file sharing. QNAP’s new Business Series Turbo NAS Servers offer affordable high performance storage for SMB, Corporate, and entry-level Enterprise customers.

The NAS supports file sharing across Windows, Mac, Linux, and UNIX platforms. Versatile business applications such as file server, FTP server, printer server, web server, and Windows AD support are provided. The dominant features, such as WebDAV, Share Folder Aggregation (also known as DFS), IPv6 and IPv4 dual-stack, Wake on LAN, schedule power on/ off, HDD S.M.A.R.T, comprehensive log systems, and policy-based unauthorized IP blocking are all included features of a QNAP NAS server.

The unique "Virtual Disk Drive" adds flexibility to expand the capacity of NAS. By using the built-in iSCSI initiator, the NAS can connect to other iSCSI targets on the network and turn them into virtual disks, which become multiple single volumes on the NAS. Up to 8 virtual disks can be stacked. The NAS serves as the storage stack chaining master. The user only needs to connect to this single entry (QNAP NAS) and is able to reach and use all the iSCSI LUN on the network.

The NAS offers complete backup solution for data protection, including cloud-based storage backup (Amazon S3), Apple Time Machine support, encrypted remote replication, third party software backup, one-touch-copy backup and QNAP exclusive Windows-based utility NetBak Replicator. The users can choose different backup modes for redundant data backup.

You can use the handy front panel LCD display to complete the first time installation in a few simple steps. The Turbo NAS will automatically complete the hard disk formatting and RAID building.
