4.2.5.3 Power Switch

The power switch has two functions. The rocker switch controls overall power to the instrument, in addition it includes a circuit breaker. If attempts to power up the M200AU result in a circuit breaker trip, the switch automatically returns to the off position, and the instrument will not power up.
