Powering Up MAGPIX

MAGPIX has two on/off switches: a hard power switch and a soft power switch.

To power on MAGPIX:

NOTE:

Luminex recommends the use of a surge protector or UPS device
with MAGPIX. For more information, see “Uninterruptible Power
Supply (UPS) or Surge Protector” on page 44.

2. Turn on the hard power switch. This is the toggle switch at the lower right corner of the

back of MAGPIX.

NOTE:

The hard power switch controls flow of power to the instrument.
