Hi,
I have a ds411 slim. I got power outage middle of the firmware update. Now it has blue flashing light on power on.
I did some research I saw i will need a serial converter for a console access.
I have that:
RS232-TTL-M, Features Power supply: 3V~5.5V (with ESD protection); Supports SP3232, DB9, UART ports
Voltage Range (V): 3V~5.5V (with ESD protection)
image from it: Image
And i also have that:
PL2303TA USB-TTL Image
And a raspberry pi 4, and a multimeter.

How can i do the unbricking?
Also there is anything what i need to have for it?

As I recalled here is where we left off:

So there is nothing comming out of the serial console, no matter what serial converter you used?

Here is a successful kwboot run on the DS411slim (by Nefarious19):

bodhi,

Sorry for the new topic creating. I've just started again the unbricking.
Yes, it doesnt came out anything on the console no matter what converter am I using. Also all the two converters are brand new.
Also I measured the CMOS battery only a few millivolt missing. Battery original 3.00v, measured 2.98v.
I used this picture as a basis for wiring.

This looks good. Don't connect the 5V, only connect RX to TX, TX to RX, and GND to GND.

The serial pinouts above is good. Note: pay attention to the Pin 1 marking. Many Synology NAS boxes have different orientation (sometime the header is upside down, sometime it's right side up). The marking could also be an arrow pointing to Pin 1.

Here is the picture for the Synology header. Does it look the same on your board? Note the pin 1 marking. On a different Synology board, instead of the bold White corner, it is an arrow ^.

As long as you don't connect power source from the adapter, it is safe to try swapping wires/pins. But for Synology boxes, 2,4,6 are the pins to use. I have not seen or heard any other pinouts for Synology NAS.
