Well, the title pretty much says what I want to do. Even if the DS213+ is on top of a living room cupboard, it’s still way to bright .. as I don’t need really need the LED, here’s a quick hack (the ID and the device is taken from the Synology Wiki) on how to disable it on each startup:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |
#!/bin/sh case $1 in start) echo "Disabling Power LED" echo 6 > /dev/ttyS1 ;; esac |
Just place the file in /opt/etc/init.d/S01leds and the script is gonna turn the LED off during a boot/reboot.
Thanks for this example, helped me a lot.
I got a brand new DS213+ and was wondering if there is a way to disable the LED(s).
Is there a way to disable the fan too?
Please take note that in the new DSM 4.3 / 4.2 the etc scripts are located in;
/usr/syno/etc/rc.d
So the script should also placed there.
Just my 2 cents.
It’s not working for me : dsm 4.3 syno 413J
instead of:
echo 6 > /dev/ttyS1
you need to use:
printf “\\x36” > /dev/ttyS1
Hi,
Have you tried with DSM 5 ?
Nope, not yet. I’m still waiting till SynoPackages work without any issues on DSM 5.
how should I name this file (+ extension) and how do I gain access to this folder?
