Robbie,

The "upsrw" command contacts upsd, so it sounds like you should be able to add 
a user to upsd.users on the NAS, and then run something like this on the Mac:

   upsrw -s battery.charge.low=80 -u upsmaster -s sekret UPS@synology

Per http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsd.users.html , the "upsmaster" user 
would need at least "actions = SET". You will need to reload upsd after 
changing upsd.users.

If the UPS is not turning itself off after the NAS goes into safe mode, it 
might be possible to do this from the Mac. You probably have something like 
this in the Mac's upsmon.conf:

   SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0"

You could add an UPS shutdown command before the Mac shutdown command:

   upscmd -u upsmaster -s sekret UPS@synology shutdown.stayoff

but you would need to be sure that the UPS shutdown delay is long enough to 
allow the NAS to go into safe mode. (This is why it is recommended that the 
master (the NAS in your case) initiate the UPS shutdown.) Also, you would need 
to configure that NUT user to allow instant commands in upsd.users as well as 
upsrw access.
