Powering on
The AdderView Matrix does not have a power switch, so whenever power is
applied via the supplied adapter, the unit is operational. A green indicator on the
front panel (labelled ‘Power’) shows power input status.
Note: Before applying power to the AdderView Matrix, ensure that the two
option switches at the rear panel are both set to the OFF (up) position.
