Applying Power Correctly

Starting Up:

It is recommended that you apply power to the Magma expansion
chassis prior to powering up your computer. This will allow the PCIe bus
hierarchy to be in a stable state when the host system issues its master
power-on bus reset. This will also allow the software driver to recognize
the PCI bus hierarchy and any attached devices.
The system's On/Off switch is located on the front panel, as well as an
LED indicator to indicate power status. Verify that the green power
indicator is ON after pressing the
button.
Hardware Check
As your computer starts up, you will see LINKUP lights appear on the
back o f the chassis near the iPass connector.
