Powering the Fusion
Before connecting the power cable, make sure the Fusion’s power
switch is turned off. There is no need to worry about whether you are
using 110V or 220V since the Fusion has an internal switching power
supply that automatically adjusts itself to the correct power setting
anywhere in the world.
1. Plug the female end of the power cable into the Fusion’s power
socket.
2. Plug the male (plug) end into a properly grounded power outlet.
Do not power-cycle the Fusion repeatedly!
Doing so may damage to the workstation.
Repeated power-cycling puts the sensitive
internal electronics (particularly the hard
drive, memory, and processors) under undue
stress and may shorten the lifespan of these
components. Under normal use, these
components will provide many years of
trouble-free performance.
Treat the Fusion just like a computer: If you
need to reboot, wait about 10 seconds before
restarting the machine. This will give the
capacitors inside the unit time to discharge
and for memory to clear.
